Blackheath Newborn Photoshoot

I am very happy to share this mother and baby portrait taken at a recent newborn photoshoot in Blackheath London.

Parent and baby portraits form an important part of my newborn photoshoots. It is tender moments like these that will be treasured by both mother and child for years to come. If my Clients don’t feel camera-ready that is not a problem. I have many other ways of including parents in the photoshoot to show the gentle care and love they have for their new baby. Such as using hands to cup the perfectly tiny feet or cradle their hands. 

On the day of the photoshoot, I will arrive at your home with my portable studio, lighting, backdrops and my suitcase of beautiful handmade baby outfits, headbands, and hats. All items are carefully selected for softness, material and the natural look they will give the photographs. 

Once I have found the best spot in the home to set up the first part of the session is often spent chatting whilst we get your baby ready. I like to get to know my Client’s and put everyone at ease, even the most camera shy! I am very used to working with new parents as well as newborns. As a mother myself, I can relate to the emotions and anxieties of those first few weeks. I want to make the experience of a newborn photoshoot easy and enjoyable for everyone. This starts with travelling to my Client’s home. Taking any stress out of the day.

When to Book

Newborn photoshoots are best scheduled during the first three weeks following the birth. This is the ‘newborn’ stage and it is incredible how quickly they change! If possible please book your photoshoot in advance. I recommend after your 20-week scan. This ensures that I will be able to fit you in when your baby is born. I will reserve a time period around your due date for natural deliveries. For planned deliveries, we can pre-book the photoshoot date. 

For further details and full price list please contact me via my booking page, I would love to hear from you!
