Newborn Sessions

For new parents who want to savour the wonder and stillness of their newest addition’s first weeks.

No rushing, no pressure, just the peaceful rhythm of you and your new baby. I work gently, letting you and your baby lead as I create timeless images that capture those fleeting details: tiny fingers curled around yours, the weight of them in your arms, the serene stillness of their first weeks.

in-home

Your home holds so much of your story, the everyday moments, the quiet details, the spaces where your family simply is. In-home sessions are perfect for creating deeply personal, meaningful images, especially for newborns. There’s no rushing, no packing bags, and no need to worry about anything other than settling in and enjoying the moment. These sessions are calm, baby-led, and designed to fit naturally around your family.

studio

My Wimbledon studio offers a calm, neutral space with beautiful natural light, perfect for maternity, newborn, family and couple sessions. It’s also home to my sitter sessions and first birthday sessions, designed especially for babies at those milestone stages. The studio allows for a relaxed, weather-proof option while keeping the focus on connection and simplicity.

outdoor

Outdoor sessions offer space, movement, and a sense of freedom, ideal for families with little ones who love to explore. Children can run, play, laugh, and be themselves, while I gently document the moments unfolding. I regularly photograph sessions in Richmond Park and Nonsuch Park, and I also have a list of beautiful locations I’m always happy to suggest. I’m open to travelling further afield too.

The ideal time to photograph newborns is within the first two weeks of life. During this stage, babies are still beautifully tiny and naturally curly — perfect for capturing those fresh, early days.
That said, if you’d prefer a little more time to settle into life with your baby, that’s absolutely fine. I love photographing babies of all ages.
My style is natural and relaxed, so your baby doesn’t need to be asleep for the session. If they sleep, wonderful. If they’re awake and alert, that’s perfect too.
Once your booking is confirmed, I’ll send you a detailed style guide to help you prepare.
My work leans towards neutral, muted tones — whites, creams, soft browns, and gentle greens. Choosing the right outfit truly makes all the difference between a good shoot and a great one.
If you’d rather not worry about styling, you’re welcome to choose pieces from my Client Wardrobe — it’s all included for you to use.
Please arrive around 10 minutes early so we can have a relaxed chat before we begin.
There’s no need to worry about what to do — I’ll gently guide you with posing and prompts throughout. My aim is for you to feel comfortable and simply enjoy the experience.
