WHY CHOOSE PROFESSIONAL NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY
Nobody wants to forget those tiny perfect toes, soft skin, fluffy hair, and that swirly crown. The way they sleep, pout and yawn will disappear, and regretfully, so will our memory! Professional photographs are life-affirming and a celebration of the love for your baby, for you and your family.

HIRING A SPECIALIST

It's not possible to take some of these portraits without specialist posing, equipment and photography skills.

I am well practised and trained to handle newborns. I also have experience with tiny babies born prematurely, twins and babies with a condition, like a cleft palate, Down syndrome, and complications as a result of a difficult birth. Individual physical limitations and sensitivities are taken on board during the session. I am always patient, and I expertly soothe your baby with tried and tested techniques that will keep your baby comfortable and safe throughout. I only shoot when I am well, and I am fully vaccinated against all childhood diseases; hand- sanitiser is always used.

WHEN TO BOOK

During the first week of your newborn's life, you are trying to settle into a routine, learning to feed, and trying to sleep.

I urge parents to book and pay for their session when they are pregnant. Booking ahead will ensure that I am available when your baby arrives, and they will fit into props and be safe and comfortable in all poses. I set aside two dates in my diary around your due date, and should we need a third option for a super late or early baby, I will accommodate you. Newborns are photographed between 5-12 days old.

WHERE & WHAT TIME

The photoshoots take place in my home studio, which is about 17 minutes west of Cardiff and is easy to get to.

Sessions are midweek, starting at 9.45 am until 2 pm. I encourage parents and siblings to be photographed with the baby.

I will help you have a smooth and easy photo session, and I provide you with a checklist, planning tips, clothing options and tricks to help the shoot go well!
