When will the photoshoot take place? 

I recommend having a photoshoot when your baby is 4 – 21 days old. When babies are born they are generally very curled up and you can really see how they were in the womb so it’s really important that they are photographed as early as possible.

Sessions are held at my studio in Thame, Oxfordshire, where I have a large selection of props, beautiful textures and blankets for your newborn.

How far in advance do I need to book?

For a newborn session it is best to book before your baby is here, Ideally just after your 20 week scan. We only have a limited amount of time (around 21 days) to get those sleepy, curly newborn poses and I only take limited sessions each week so booking early is best. If you have already given birth please still contact me as I may be able to squeeze you in.

What happens if I book a newborn session and baby decides to make an appearance early or late?

That is absolutely fine, I know that babies arrive when they want to so I always give priority to my newborn sessions. As long as you let me know as soon as baby arrives, I can make sure I have a date free for you within the first 21 days. Booking early will mean I can reserve you space before and after your due date.

Do I need to bring anything?

I provide all props and outfits needed but I’m happy to include anything you have of sentimental value.

What should older siblings wear?

For siblings I would recommend that you choose simple and timeless outfits.

Dresses in white, cream & pastels work well for girls, and white, cream or beige T-shirts for boys. Try to avoid busy patterns or really bright colours. 

How long does the photoshoot take?

Expect a newborn session to last anywhere between 2 to 4 hours.

All other sessions last between one and two hours. This may sound like a long time but this allows plenty of time for feeds, cups of tea or coffee and comforting in between set ups. It ensures we have enough time to create your perfect gallery.

How do I view my gallery?

Your gallery will be fully edited and ready to view around 3-6 weeks after your session. 

Once your gallery is ready you will be invited back to the studio to view a personal slideshow of your images. During this appointment you can choose your favourite images, they will be put straight on a USB for you to take home. 

Alternatively, if you live too far to return you will be provided with an access code to view your gallery on my website enabling you to make your choice. Your chosen images will then be transferred to you via email for you to download.
