Newborn Photography

Why book a newborn shoot?

Newborn photos are timeless. They capture a precious moment in your child’s life that goes by in the blink of an eye which is why these are so popular for families.

Newborn shoots ideally need to be arranged within the first 7-10 days of a baby’s life to get the most of out the snuggly, sleepy poses. We can provide sessions for babies older than this but the photographs captured will be different as babies are naturally less sleepy and move around more freely so it can be difficult to get those snuggled poses.

Your Newborn Photo Session

Your session will roughly last an hour, depending on baby. We recommend that baby has a feed just before you leave for your session, if possible. That way, baby will be sleepy on arrival and hopefully will remain sleeping for most of the shoot. 

However, we know babies can be unpredictable and so if your session runs over an hour then that is not a problem. If baby needs feeding/changing/soothing in between then again that is not a problem, we will be on baby’s time to ensure we capture the best photos possible.

What photos are provided?

We provide you with approximately 15 photographs taken from your shoot that are the ‘treasured moments’. This may fluctuate depending on well the shoot goes (largely dependent on baby).

However, often we find that some of the outtakes can make the best memories, for laughter or those expressions you will one day miss. We can, on request, provide those additional photos for you. All photos provided will be digital only.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

I recommend that you book your newborn photography session at your 20 week scan. Your estimate due date will be placed on my calendar and I will be looking forward to hearing from you as soon as the baby is born to book your newborn shoot.

If baby is already here, please still enquire! We book with babies older than 10 days old, explaining that the photos will be different than your 'typical' newborn photos. We can cater to older babies and plan out your requirements together.

Please contact us for further information about packages and details.

A deposit is not required.

Of course! We can arrange for this, please send an enquiry to discuss this further. Newborn shoots can take a while so if you have a toddler/young children you just need to have that in mind (in case they get bored!).
