Category Archives: Newborn Baby Photography

This blog post is a couple of months out of date now but better late than never as they say!  I am always so grateful to be able to share photos of newborns on my blog  – such a special time for the family when a new little life enters the world.  Isabelle has totally adoring parents, completely doting grandmothers and an extrememly proud big brother 🙂  She’s one lucky little girl and absolutely gorgeous too!  Bet she’s changed a bit by now but that’s fine as she’s having another shoot at 6 months and one for her 1st birthday too!  Can’t wait …!  So here’s a belated introduction to the beautiful Isabelle…  Congratulations Jude & Nick xx

Polly’s mum Bev & I go back years (and years!) and when she had her first baby back in 2008 I was thrilled & excited to capture as much as I could of Edward’s first year every time we met up.   Now I’m a mum of 3 and Bev is a mum of 2 it’s a bit of an expedition to meet up and taking photos isn’t always possible (my camera isn’t exactly very compact!) so they have asked me to do it as “proper work” this time.  So not only do I get to see one of my bestest friends on my own every now and then, I also get to photograph and cuddle Polly and it’s great!  Here are some of my favourites just days after she was born then again at a few weeks old…

You can see cute Christmas shots of Polly & Edward here.

This post has been a long time in the making!  Seth is almost 7 months old now and I’ve been meaning to post some photos of my own special little man for, well, 6 months!  He is our 3rd son and I imagine he’ll definitely be our last child so I’m trying to cherish every moment with him, already I’m finding it hard to throw away the clothes and toys he’s outgrown and want to cry as he goes up and up in nappy size (little podge that he is)!  I can’t get over how fast they change, we have lovely happy smiles and giggles now and he’s trying to roll over – our other two were crawling by now but I’m happy Seth isn’t!  He had a rough start, bless him.  We spent 9 days in special care, that was quite an experience – I saw so many amazing people going about their daily jobs but that just happened to be saving baby’s lives.  Incredible.  Anyway – here’s my cute not-so-little anymore bundle!

Minutes after he was born, before we realised he had a problem breathing…

Here’s to the next 17 yrs and 6 months and a million more photos my gorgeous baby. May you learn to sleep through the night soon please!

Awww what an absolute sweetheart baby Lyra is and I feel so lucky that her Auntie bought her a year in the life of package so I get to see her again at 6 months and a year old!

You wouldn’t believe when I turn up for a newborn shoot that I didn’t have plans to move in with you!  Honestly, I bring so much equipment and backdrops so you have lots of fabrics and colours and textures to chose from, then of course there are the hats!  My favourite accessory for a newborn – my wonderful friend and neighbour knits them and you can check out her etsy store here.

Here are some of my favourites from Lyra’s first session:

Fitting perfectly into Dad’s hand ♥

A little smiler already (at 2 months old!) 🙂

The zingy zig zag back drop!

Perfect peach!

Now time for the hats!

Time out from posing infront of the lens on mum’s shoulder, then dad’s turn!

Quick outfit change into her Christening gown…

And just enough time for a quick family photo!

Or two!

What an absolute pleasure Lyra and her parents were to spend time with and photograph 🙂

Please do get in touch if you’d like me to capture some memories for you too….
