Services
Maternity Photography
Maternity photography celebrates the beauty of pregnancy with tailored sessions. Using natural lighting and emotive compositions, I create timeless images that highlight the connection between parents and their unborn child. Sessions are conducted around 7 months, ensuring comfort and a relaxed atmosphere for expectant mothers.
Newborn Photography
Newborn sessions focus on capturing delicate details and sleepy poses in a safe, studio environment. With a three-hour timeframe, I prioritise babys comfort, incorporating props, wraps, and gentle setups. Parents are encouraged to bring sentimental items to personalise the session and preserve early memories.
Baby Photography
Designed for babies aged 12 weeks to crawling stage, these sessions document joyful milestones. A variety of backdrops and props are available, or clients may bring personal items like blankets or outfits. The relaxed, one-hour format adapts to babys pace, ensuring natural expressions.
Family Photography
Family sessions capture interactions across generations, from siblings to grandparents. The studio offers versatile settings for both candid and posed shots, with guidance on coordinating outfits for cohesive, elegant results. Ideal for updating family albums or commemorating special occasions.
Cherubs Watch Me Grow
This package includes three sessions documenting babys development from newborn to walking. Each stage is preserved in a triple folio, creating a narrative of early milestones. The flexible timeline allows parents to schedule sessions at key developmental points for a comprehensive keepsake.
