NEWBORN BABY PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER
Capturing your baby’s first momentsPremium baby photography service
Those first few days are so precious. Even with newborn babies, my clients say that I manage to capture their personality, mannerisms and expressions.
My style is relaxed and informal. I specialise in taking natural portraits, as opposed to posed ones. I offer newborn and baby portrait photography from the early stages of conception including maternity sessions, through to your baby’s first birthday.
Your portrait session will take place in your own home for comfort and convenience. I offer a premium service, bringing a portable mini-studio and lights with me. I can bring a variety of props for clients who want to have the option of being more creative than natural.
I also like to encourage both parents to try ‘skin on skin‘ portraits. They can be absolutely stunning. Black and white portraits of a child and parent are truly timeless the most treasured.
There isn’t anything more precious that giving the gift of memories to your child. After your photoshoot, I offer a range of keepsake albums, frames and canvases, that will preserve your beautiful portraits, which will be made to your personal requirements.
I advise you to get in touch as early as possible after your twenty week scan. Booking a tentative date will ensure you and I have something in the diary. Upon booking your session, I will send you information to help you prepare for the session. Of course, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call me on 020 8989 4886.
Remember, they are only this little for a little while!

Baby Portrait Plans
I have three first year baby portrait plans to help you capture your baby’s development and growth. Alternatively, you might prefer one or two sessions – to welcome your baby into the family, or to celebrate your baby’s first birthday, for example.
Don’t worry or be put off if you don’t have space for my mini-studio. I can still offer you a premium baby photography service. There are other ways and means to create beautiful natural portraits.
