Thinking about newborn photos, but not sure when or how to book?
Here’s a gentle guide to why pre-booking your baby’s photo session is easier than you think—and how we make it work around your real life, not the other way around.
You never really know the last time your baby will fit in your arms just so. Storytelling photography doesn’t freeze time—but it does give you a way to remember what life felt like in the moment. Here’s why that matters, and why so many families are choosing to document the everyday, not just the milestones.
We believe in keeping newborn photography simple, natural, and timeless. Instead of using props, we focus on soft textures and personal touches that tell your family’s unique story. Whether you prefer a minimalistic session or want to include meaningful items, we’ll create something truly special together. Read more about our approach!
For years, I was an outdoor, natural light photographer—until I started working with newborns. That’s when I realised something crucial: natural light is unpredictable, and newborn photography demands control, consistency, and comfort.

Here’s why I made the switch—and why in-home photography is the best choice for newborns.
