Capturing those I also understand how quickly this time goes, so I love capturing special memories that families can treasure forever. Babies are all I photograph making me one of the South's leading newborn and first year specialists. I have 9 years experience, so my skills at settling and soothing your baby are extensive. I have studied and developed my knowledge of babies so it means I can handle any situation presented. Posing a baby is an art and I guarantee that my attention to detail is second to none, meaning your images will be the best that they can be. Above all, I practise safe posing which has also led me to become a trainer in this art too, offering bespoke training to photographers who wish to learn the craft. I offer simple, elegant and soft styling that means your images really show off your baby and remain timeless. Your session will take place in my cosy, relaxed home studio, purpose built for babies. Parents often comment on how relaxed they feel and how lovely it is so enjoy a hot cuppa whilst watching me work. Your overall experience will be fuss-free, hassle-free and I offer total transparency on all pricing. I provide quality products as well as digital images so you can proudly display your images in your home. I really care about the babies and families that trust me and many return time and time again.

Amongst all the gadgets, baby clothes, endless supplies of bottles and muslin squares, none of them will be as precious or important as the first precious weeks after your baby is born.

Within a blink of an eye those first few weeks will be gone. But imagine if you captured those moments and could look back on them forever?!

You think you want a newborn shoot but you're feeling stressed that it might all be too much after giving birth?

This is a totally common and understandable concern. What if I told you that you literally have to do nothing other than bring baby and yourself to me and I take care of all the rest. From start to finish, you do nothing apart from sit and soak up the experience of just watching me, with a cuppa in hand.

If you wish to have photos taken too, I will tell you what to bring and wear so you don't have to think about that either.

No expectation, no having to help me, no stress......some clients even call it a photoshoot and babysitting in one.

Feeling more ready to book now? Pop me a message.

👶When is it best to book my newborn photoshoot?

This is an incredibly common question and one that can surprise and catch a few people out.

It is highly recommended to book your photoshoot during pregnancy and before baby arrives. Because the posing window is achieved before the first 3 weeks, getting it booked before baby arrives, ensures that you don't have the stress of trying to find someone when baby arrives and the window of opportunity is reduced.

You don't need to worry about dates as your sessions is simply booked with a due date. I only take a limited number of due dates so that I can fit you in even when baby is early or late.

And there is no need to commit or worry about paying for a package. You simply book with a small shoot fee. Pricing is upfront though, so booking in advance gives you time to budget and ask family or friends if they wish to gift you vouchers towards it too.

It makes me sad when someone falls in love with my work, style but may miss out if they leave it too late.

If you have left it until baby is here, then it is still worth getting in touch as I will try and fit in last minute bookings where I can.

Turning one is so much fun. Celebrating with balloons, messy play, gorgeous yummy cake, lots of attention, singing songs and a good old splash in the bath.

What could be more fun?! Looking forward to today’s little girl - especially as she’s coming back after year on from her newborn shoot.

One of my favourite milestones is when baby is 6-9 months. They’ve got such a personality and are exploring sitting up, crawling and playing around on their back. So much to capture!

It's so lovely to be fully back into the swing of things, post summer. I've had lots of new followers, so wanted to take 5 to say hello and welcome to my page. It's full of images, guidance, reviews and info BUT I am just at the other end of a message or a call so I invite anyone who may be considering a shoot to in get touch. There's no such thing as a silly question or too many.

And another heads up that October and November availability is getting a little limited.
