More from little H’s newborn session. I just couldn’t believe how well she slept for a six-week-old baby! So beautiful and scrummy, too – hope you won’t mind the image overload, hehe. Thanks again Mama C and Papa P, it was a pleasure to meet you all!

More from little E’s newborn session (isn’t she the sweetest little two-week-old peanut!) What a lucky baby she is. Mummy adores her, Daddy dotes on her. I felt absolutely privileged to take the first portraits of this beautiful young family, and to witness the love they share!

Stunning baby H came to see me last week for her newborn portraits. Her mummy and daddy had travelled all the way from the Isle of Wight and were rather looking forward to seeing their sweet baby girl curled up in the traditional newborn poses they loved so much.

At six weeks old, and well rested after a long car journey, she might very well have decided that the world was far too interesting to go back to sleep… and indeed she was awake, alert and contented for a good part of her session, allowing us to get plenty of great eye contact shots. But boy, once she went to sleep, she slept as deeply as a week-old baby! She was just a perfect little model.

We had some fantastic variety at this session, but this classic sleepy shot is today’s sneak preview for H’s mummy and daddy! Enjoy

Meet beautiful baby E, only sixteen days old when we met and already the most precious person in her Mummy and Daddy’s world. E was very alert during her session and very keen to spend time nursing with mummy rather than posing for the funny photographer lady – but once she got a full belly, she was blissfully asleep. Isn’t she just delicious perched on Daddy’s shoulder! Enjoy your teaser, A and C – it was a pleasure to meet you all!

One image of gorgeous Miss I was certainly not enough, so I am back to share some more of this beautiful newborn baby girl I shot a few weeks ago. Peach perfect skin and the squishiest loveliest baby lips, this little lady is very, very loved and adored by her Mummy and Daddy. Don’t they look adorable together?

Across the pond, our American cousins are going ga-ga over newborn photography. While still relatively new over here in the UK, capturing a baby in his or her first days is becoming increasingly popular in the US. It is a wonderful way for parents of preserving the memories of those precious little details in a unique and artistic way – the perfect little hands and feet, sleepy eyes, squishy lips, swirling crowns of hair!

The Today Show recently featured a segment on newborn photography – it is a great watch for those of you currently considering a newborn session, who are unsure of what to expect. While I would say that my personal style in capturing this age is more natural and less reliant on props than the (very talented!) photographers featured in this video, many of the aspects and considerations very much apply to what I do.

Are you considering newborn baby and/or maternity portraits? I would be delighted to tell you more about what I can offer your family! Just give me a call on 07941 355027 or drop me an email using the contact form on this site.

At just 15 days old, sweet baby I was such a little angel for me at her newborn photo shoot. Blissfully asleep for the most part of my visit, she curled up in some really adorable poses. Oh and… just look at those adorable lips. Really irresistible! A little preview for Mummy and Daddy – thank you for your warm welcome and I look forward to seeing you again in just a few days’ time!

Gorgeous baby J turned two weeks new just a few hours before our session yesterday. This handsome little fellow was as good as gold for me – a peaceful sleeper for most of our shoot, and contented and alert during his wakeful time. What an absolute pleasure to meet you, baby J – and Mummy and Daddy, enjoy your sneak peek! I can’t wait to show you all the other precious shots we got in a week’s time!
