Your Newborn Session is about slowing down in those first fleeting days and holding onto them before they're gone. The tiny yawns, the curled up fingers, the way they still smell like the very beginning of things.
We'll keep it simple and unhurried, in your own home if that feels right, or somewhere quiet and familiar to your family. I work around your baby's rhythm, feeding, sleeping, waking, so there's no rushing and no pressure. Just soft light, gentle moments, and your baby exactly as they are right now.
No elaborate setups, no props that overshadow the moment. I'll capture the quiet in between, mum and dad adjusting to this new normal, older siblings meeting the newest member of the family, the exhausted, overwhelmed, completely in love version of your life right now, with a cinematic, mood rich feel that makes each image feel like a still from your own story.
By the end, you'll have images that don't just document a newborn. They'll hold the feeling of that particular season, the one that changes so fast you'll barely remember what it looked like unless someone captured it.
A visual story of your family's very beginning, for a stage that only lasts once.

-
Newborn sessions are best booked while you're still pregnant, so your date is held for you. I recommend reaching out around 30 to 34 weeks. Once baby arrives, we'll aim to shoot within the first two weeks, while they're still curled up and sleepy.
-
This is a relaxed, baby-led, storytelling approach to photography. Guided gently, captured intentionally.
