capture those first moments
Why book a session?
YOU'LL NEVER REGRET CAPTURING THEIR FIRST FEW WEEKS
Upon reflection, my daughter's newborn stage was an absolute blur! This is super common due to general overwhelm and probably a lot of sleep deprivation. I can't tell you how much I would value having some beautiful portraits of me and her when she was new, you just can't beat them.
Come in to the studio, have a tea or coffee and relax whilst we get your baby to sleep. Once they are in a deep sleep we can then start photographing!
My sessions are very relaxed and completely baby led. We will stop for feeds, changes or anything they need throughout the session.

What's the difference between retouched and edited?
When it comes to your final images, you’ll be able to choose both edited and fully retouched photographs so you get the best of both styles.
Edited images are beautifully colour graded and adjusted to reflect my signature clean, natural look, keeping everything soft and true to life.I do not photoshop this images so hair and skin will be untouched.
Retouched images take this a step further, with careful attention to skin, removing any temporary imperfections, flakes or redness, and gently polishing the overall image for a more refined finish.
This gives you a balance of natural, heartfelt moments alongside those perfectly polished images you’ll want to print and treasure.
