AWARD WINNING SPECIALIST NEWBORN BABY PHOTOGRAPHER BERKSHIRE
BEAUTIFUL, TIMELESS, BREATHTAKING NEWBORN & BABY IMAGES | EST. 2010
WHY NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY
Bringing a new baby in to the world is such monumental, amazing & special time for any parent . Precious as they are, we all know those early days are fleeting…those tiny details, the new bond between parents & baby & their little smiles and yawns. On many occasions the journey also in getting there has not always been a straight forward one. There can be so many highs & lows of fertility, pregnancy and birth, that I for one whole heartedly believe it is worth celebrating and documenting. I have been photographing Newborns & Babies since 2010 & it is my passion & a real honour to be asked to capture such a special time and be a part of creating beautiful images as memories to cherish forever, not only for the parents but also for my little clients to look back on in years to come!
YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER
My style is heart-warming and simplistic with the aim of capturing exquisite images of your little one in a beautiful and personal way. I am an Internationally Trained & Fully Insured Specialist Newborn Baby Photographer. I am a fully qualified member of the Baby And Newborn Photography Association (BANPAS), a group consisting of some of the top UK newborn baby photographers & I am also proud to have received numerous National Awards for my Newborn Photography work over the years. I am passionate about Newborn Photography but even more passionate about Newborn Safety. I have had extensive Newborn Photography & Safety Training, Paediatric First Aid Trained and am experienced in working with newborns, comforting & soothing them and recognising & pre-empting their individual needs.
WHEN TO BOOK
Newborn Sessions ideally take place within the first 7 -17 days of life, with the best time being under 12 days. That said, I will happily hold newborn sessions up to 6-8 weeks should a session date be delayed for some reason as we can still get gorgeous images whatever the stage. Booking early for this reason is recommended to guarantee my availability around your due date and bookings can be made any time after your 12 week scan. Session slots are limited to 10 per month allowing me to provide the best service to each client & also accommodate for the unpredictable arrival of my newborn clients, however should you stumble across my work after your baby has been born please do feel free to check my availability at that specific time. As we all know newborns rarely turn up when expected so week on week my availability shifts slightly and I will always do my best to accommodate last minute enquiries should the diary permit and if I am not already fully booked.

LAST MINUTE ENQUIRIES
