Those First Perfect Weeks
Ten tiny fingers. Ten tiny toes. And a lifetime of love ahead.
These first days are a blur of feeding, nappy changes, and stolen sleep. You're exhausted, overwhelmed, and completely in love. And while you're living it, it's impossible to remember just how tiny those fingers were, how perfectly your baby curled into you, or the sweet sighs they made while sleeping.
That's where I come in.
My newborn sessions are designed to be calm, comfortable, and completely stress-free. We work at baby's pace, feeding breaks, settling time, whatever they need. There's no rush.
I specialise in capturing the authentic, tender moments between you and your baby. The way you look at them. The tiny details that change so quickly. The overwhelming love that's hard to put into words but impossible to miss in photographs.
Whether you prefer the cosy intimacy of your home or the beautiful calm space of my studio, I'll create timeless images you'll treasure forever.

When To Book
How to prepare
Book during your pregnancy
Reserve your newborn session during your second or third trimester. This ensures I have availability when baby arrives and gives you one less thing to worry about after birth.
Best timing for photos
First 5-14 Days: Babies are sleepiest, curliest
First 3 Weeks: Still great for lifestyle sessions
After 3 Weeks: Still beautiful, babe will be more alert
Don't stress about exact date, we'll work with YOUR baby's timeline. Text me when baby arrives and we'll schedule within the ideal window.
Before your session
✓ Keep to babes normal schedule
✓Keep babe upright after feeding as much as you can
✓ Heat your home to 24-26°C (warm = sleepy baby)
✓ Have backup bottles/snacks for yourself ready
✓ Siblings should be fed and happy
What to bring
For Studio Sessions:
Just yourselves and your baby! I have everything else. Bring dummy if baby uses one.
For At home Sessions:
I bring some outfits and blankets for babe, but your personal items make it special. Consider outfits for family photos (I send a style guide).
The Reality:
Your baby will probably cry, poop, pee, spit up, and need multiple feeding breaks. That's totally normal and expected!
We work at THEIR pace. There's no rush. I've seen it all. 😊
Angela was relaxed and patient during our newborn session. Our baby had a meltdown halfway through and I thought we'd have to reschedule, but Angela just calmly helped us settle him and we got the most beautiful photos. She has such a calming presence and clearly knows babies. The results speak for themselves—we're absolutely in love with every single image.
