Investing in Your Memories

 

 

Welcoming a new baby is one of life’s most precious milestones. A chapter filled with tiny details, sleepy cuddles and first family embraces that you’ll want to remember forever.


My newborn photography sessions are relaxed, baby-led and take place in the comfort of your own home, capturing your family naturally as you settle into life with your little one.


Based in Barton-under-Needwood, I photograph families across Lichfield, Burton upon Trent, Tamworth, Sutton Coldfield and the surrounding Staffordshire and South Derbyshire areas.


Travel within 25 miles of Barton-under-Needwood is included.

A travel fee may apply for locations beyond this area.

To secure your place, most families reserve their session during pregnancy using their estimated due date.


If your baby has already arrived, please Get In Touch and I’ll be happy to check my availability.

A Day in the Life Session

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I reserve my Due Date?

The best time to book is during pregnancy. - some time after your 12 week scan.

I'll reserve your due date in my diary and we'll confirm a session date once your baby arrives.

If your baby has already been born, please get in touch as I may still have availability.

How should we dress for our family session?

Keep it simple and comfortable. Soft, neutral tones like beige, cream, taupe, or muted pastels work beautifully and help keep the focus on your connection rather than bold patterns or logos. I will send a pre shoot guide to help with this.

What’s the best time to schedule a session with a newborn?

The ideal time for a newborn session is within the first 1–3 weeks when babies are usually sleepier and more snuggly.

However, because my sessions are baby-led and natural in style, older babies can be captured just as beautifully. There may simply be a little more awake time, which often brings lovely expressions and connection.

Should i wait until my baby has been born to book?

It is recommend you reserve a session before baby arrives to ensure you are guaranteed a space. We use your due date to reserve the space and then the actual session date is arranged when baby has arrived.

I only take a select number of due dates each month to ensure flexibility in my diary.

Frequently Asked Questions

5. What if my baby arrives early or late?

Don't worry,  this is completely expected!

When you book your newborn session, I reserve your due date in my diary rather than a fixed session date. Once your baby arrives, simply get in touch and we'll arrange a suitable time for your session.

This flexibility allows me to photograph your baby during those precious early weeks, whether they decide to arrive ahead of schedule or keep everyone waiting a little longer.

6. What if my baby won't sleep?

There's no expectation for your baby to sleep throughout the session.

My approach is completely baby-led, which means we allow plenty of time for feeding, cuddles, changing, and settling. Awake moments can be just as beautiful as sleepy ones.

7:What if my home isn't photo-ready?

Please don't worry.

Most families tell me this before their session! I only need access to a few areas with good natural light and will guide you on this beforehand.

Your images are about connection and memories, not having a perfect home.

8. Do you travel?

Yes, I travel throughout Staffordshire and beyond for newborn sessions.

Travel details and any additional mileage charges will be discussed before booking.
