❓ Is newborn photography actually safe?

One day, my Russian auntie called me and said she'd been following my photography page for a while.

She had some feedback.

"Your posts are too long," she said. 😆

So I asked her what she thought I should write instead.

Without missing a beat, she replied:

"Just tell people you won't drop the baby."

Honestly... fair enough. 😂

But on a more serious note, your baby's safety is always my number one priority and comes before every photo.

I only use safe newborn poses and techniques that I have been specifically trained in. Over the years, I've completed multiple newborn safety and posing courses and continuously invest in education to ensure I'm following best practices.

I've even had a lesson with a neonatologist, who explained newborn anatomy, development, and which positions are considered safe for babies.

Many parents don't realise that some poses require special support. During your session, I use purpose-made posing pillows and supports (which are carefully hidden from the camera) to keep your baby comfortable and secure at all times.

I never force a pose. If a baby isn't comfortable in a particular position, we simply move on to something else.

So if you're wondering whether your little one is in good hands- the answer is yes. ❤️

And just in case you're still worried...

I won't drop your baby, guys. 😁

Yesterday we had to say goodbye to our gorgeous boy, Simba❤️
And honestly, we still can't believe he's gone.
In January Simba suffered a stroke which left the right side of his body unresponsive. Watching him relearn how to walk almost from scratch was heartbreaking, but at the same time incredible. He fought so hard, and little by little he made such remarkable progress that we truly believed he was recovering well.
But over the last month something started changing. We found ourselves at the vet more than ever before for little things that suddenly weren't healing on their own. Yesterday we noticed he was breathing strangely like deep breaths with his belly and opening his mouth for air, and we rushed him to the vet thinking maybe it was a reaction to antibiotics he had recently started.
It wasn't.
The X-rays showed huge amounts of fluid around his lungs and abdomen. The vet told us it looked like the final stages of cancer, and that if we took him home, he could suffocate.
So we made the hardest decision of our lives.
If you ever loved a pet, you'll understand this kind of grief. Simba wasn't just a cat. He was family. He was part of our routines, our home, our everyday life, our comfort. The silence in the house today feels unbearable.
It's impossible to explain how much we loved him or how deeply this hurts right now.
Thank you for fighting so hard, our beautiful boy. Thank you for every cuddle, every greeting at the door, every moment with you.
We would have chosen you in every lifetime🤍

In Russia, we have a saying: "Children are the flowers of your life" 🌸
And isn't that true?
They grow so quickly, changing right before our eyes. One day they're tiny little hands wrapped around your finger… and the next, they're running ahead of you, full of personality, laughter, and dreams.
Motherhood is exhausting, chaotic, beautiful, emotional, magical- sometimes all at once.
And in the middle of everyday life, it's so easy to forget to pause and realise: these are the moments we'll one day miss the most.
The cuddles.
The sandy toes after sunset at the beach.
The way they look at you like you are their whole world.
That's why photos matter so much to me.
Not because of perfect outfits or perfect smiles, but because they freeze a feeling. A memory. A season of life that deserves to be remembered forever.
Today, I just want to say Happy Mother's Day to all of my beautiful mums. 🤍
Thank you for trusting me to capture your little "flowers" and the love that blooms within your families every single day.
One day, these photos will become some of your most precious treasures.

The kids DID NOT want to leave 😂
I had numerous little ones asking for "more photos",  more running on the beach, more cuddles with mum, more everything 🥹🌅
And honestly… that says everything.
Sunset at the beach is just magic. The soft golden light, warm sand, salty air, kids running wild while mums soaked up all the cuddles-  it didn't even feel like a photoshoot half the time.
It felt like a beautiful family evening that just happened to be captured forever 🤍
These aren't just pretty pictures.
They're the memories your kids will look back on one day and say:
"Remember when we did that at the beach with mum?" 🥹

Let me tell you about something that most first-time mums don't realise about newborn photoshoots… 🤍
Those dreamy, curled-up poses?
They're only truly possible in a very short window- usually within the first 5–14 days after birth.
After that, babies become more alert, more sensitive to movement, and much less likely to settle into those womb-like poses you see here.
What also isn't talked about enough…
A proper newborn session isn't just taking photos
It’s:
– understanding baby safety in every pose
– reading their cues before they even cry
– creating a calm, warm environment that feels like the womb
– and having the patience to pause, feed, cuddle, and start again (as many times as baby needs)
This is why your photographer matters more than you think.
Because when it's done right, you don't just get photos…
you get this exact stage preserved- the tiny fingers, the softness, the way they fit perfectly in your hands.
And it changes so quickly 🤍
If you're expecting, the best time to book is while youre still pregnant- I pencil in your due date and adjust once baby arrives

the laughs you didn't plan,
the way they lean into you without even thinking.
It's calm, soft, a little bit chaotic (because kids 😅)- and honestly, that's what makes it so special.
These are the kind of photos you'll still love years from now 🤍

Fun fact:
Your baby will never be this small, this curious, and this unapologetically messy ever again

Cake smashes aren't really about the cake…
They're about capturing that tiny personality right before toddlerhood takes over 🤍

The giggles, the hesitation, the frosting covered fingers
All the little things you think you'll remember… but slowly forget

And quietly- these are some of my most requested sessions
So if it's been sitting in your mind "we should do this"… don't leave it too late 🍰
