Family and Newborn Photography
Getting clicked with your loved ones is one of the best experiences of anyone’s life. From capturing joyful expressions to fun moments spent together,
I make sure every person feels comfortable while looking good together and capture bittersweet moments that can be cherished for years.
My style is referred described as ‘lifestyle’ photography. I don’t put newborns in jars or rocking horses; instead, I picture them curled up in blankets or just carried in their parents’ arms being cherished. Similarly, I don’t expect three-year-olds to sit on a stool in front of a white background and would rather chase them around your kitchen or play hide-and-seek in the woods. I’m currently the mother of one who is quite helpful for this work!
Newborn & Toddlers Photography
I do newborn photography sessions at my clients’ home (I travel up to 45 mins from my home) or at my home with 20-30% off . Birth dates are, of course, unpredictable, so email me with your due date and I’ll do my best to accommodate your little one whenever they decide to show up! Classic baby images are ideally taken within the first 10-14 days following birth, before they lose their adorable curled up appearance. Otherwise, I recommend waiting till they’re 12+ weeks old and gorgeous and smiling.
FAMILY SHOOTS
I provide photography sessions in your house or on site (for example, in your favourite park) to get candid, enjoyable images of your babies/children at play. For babies, a simple double bed with a white duvet cover often works well (I tend to get in close and work with a narrow depth of field so the background isn’t hugely important – there needs to be good natural light though), whereas your garden or a local park provides space for older toddlers and children to run/toddle around. I’ll guide when necessary, but there will be no forced, unnatural stances, and no library backgrounds like in my old school portraits!
