What to expect
The Newborn Experience
Do you want to remember those tiny little fingers and toes?
Your home will forever hold a special place in your hearts. It's the place where you welcomed your beautiful, little bundle. There's nowhere better for you to have those memories captured for you to cherish forever.
I will join you in the comfort of your home for up to 1 hour to capture your baby (or babies if you have been blessed with multiples) in natural poses, for instance, nestled in your arms right where they belong.
These sessions are best suited for the first 10 days of your baby's life, however, you can book the in-home Newborn Experience for any time in your baby's first year.
My specialty is as a documentary and lifestyle photographer so I will capture moments that showcase the special moments in your every day life. Time will also be spent photographing baby together with family members from your household.
You may like to have some outfit changes and baby wraps on hand to vary the feel of your images. You may even like to include a special toy which can be featured in monthly photographs or an annual birthday photograph to show your child's growth in comparison to their toy. Please note, however, that I will not wrap or pose your baby in anything but natural positions. See my portfolio above to get an idea of the images we can achieve together.
If you feel comfortable, and time is permitting, breastfeeding photography can also be achieved in this time.
Friendly and cooperative pets are welcome at all photography sessions unless otherwise stated.
Your images are lovingly edited one-by-one.
You will receive your gallery via a link to your email inbox to download and share.

What should I wear?
That's a very good question.
If you were after a specific look, you could rent a dress. I've partnered with Mama Rentals for a 15% discount off gown hire. I'll supply your coupon code after making your booking with me.
Mama Rentals rents out both women and children's clothing, however, my coupon is only valid for gown hire.
Check out my blog post on exactly that topic here:

It contains links to Pinterest boards I've saved to give you a great idea of some gorgeous outfit ideas.
