I adore babies and seeing their personalities grow in their first year. I also understand how quickly this time goes, so I love capturing special memories that families can treasure forever. Babies are all I photograph making me one of the South's leading newborn and first year specialists. I have 9 years experience, so my skills at settling and soothing your baby are extensive. I have studied and

developed my knowledge of babies so it means I can handle any situation presented. Posing a baby is an art and I guarantee that my attention to detail is second to none, meaning your images will be the best that they can be. Above all, I practise safe posing which has also led me to become a trainer in this art too, offering bespoke training to photographers who wish to learn the craft. I offer simple, elegant and soft styling that means your images really show off your baby and remain timeless. Your session will take place in my cosy, relaxed home studio, purpose built for babies. Parents often comment on how relaxed they feel and how lovely it is so enjoy a hot cuppa whilst watching me work. Your overall experience will be fuss-free, hassle-free and I offer total transparency on all pricing. I provide quality products as well as digital images so you can proudly display your images in your home. I really care about the babies and families that trust me and many return time and time again.

Finishing the week with the adorable Elsie, 13 days new. Elsie was quite keen to have one side of her body in a certain position, often common if this was familiar to babies from their position in the womb. But I went with it and worked with her to still achieve all the wonderful poses. And wow did she looks super cute. Lots of memories made.

Every baby has their own way, things they like, things they don’t. A personality and temperament from day 1. Reading them and understanding them quickly helps me to know how to keep them content whilst getting gorgeous memories of these tiny days.

Arabella's turn to have her memories captured today. Just like a tiny little doll and I know these memories will be treasured as her tiny features grow. Being the 4th and baby her family now all too well how this time flys by too.

Capturing the tiny days with posed style images is best before a baby reaches 3 weeks BUT that doesn't mean it's too late after that!

5 weeks new Jacob is proof of just that! Showing off all the tiny details and capturing those moments of him still being small in a way that he was happy with and totally led by him. I was still able to get a few posed shots as well as some lovely more natural and relaxed. Can't wait to see you for your next milestone Jacob!

🍼 Are you pregnant and expecting your baby between July and October of 2026? Don't delay booking your newborn photos - the magic 7-21 days is sweet spot for posed images and my diary is filling up.

Most mums tell me the same thing after baby arrives…They meant to book newborn photos during pregnancy but forgot because there were other things to get ready first and buy. (Most of which never gets used 😂) So they try and book when baby arrives and miss the window.

So booking before baby arrives means you can just focus on your baby — not your to-do list 🍼💛

🎁 If you’re expecting and want to reserve your newborn session, message me “NEWBORN” and I’ll check availability around your due date. And do it before baby arrives and receive a bonus "booked early gift".🎁

Memories of when your baby was this tiny, because in the blink of an eye (3 weeks to be precise), they won't be anymore.

Lilia was my warrior client from last week and the best example of how precious newborn life is. I know her parents will always treasure the moments that we've captured and having the experience.

Getting your Tiny Days experience booked in before baby arrives ensures you don't miss that important window of time. And you get it off the to do list before the beautiful chaos begins. DM with your due date for more info.

🍼 You're expecting a baby and planning to book a newborn shoot AFTER baby arrives? BUT I NEED you to read this first.... 💛

Most mums tell me the same thing after baby arrives…They meant to book newborn photos during pregnancy but forgot because there were other things to get ready first and buy. (Most of which never gets used 😂) So they try and book when baby arrives.

But baby arrives and so does no sleep, no routine and a tiny human throws it all out of the window. How do they do that?!
And newborn photos quietly become “I’ll sort that later…” which then becomes “too late”.

Newborn sessions are best captured in the first 7–21 days, when babies are still beautifully sleepy and curled up in those tiny early poses that change so quickly.
So booking before baby arrives means you can just focus on your baby — not your to-do list 🍼💛

Capturing all the teeny , tiny features and the precious sleepy moments of Marnie, 11 days new. It's madness to think that over the next few weeks, she will change so much from today. But we've captured these days, so her family get to look at her like this forever.

She was a superstar! Mind you she did like to have one eye on me throughout the shoot. Just keeping me me in check!

Clicking the camera is only part of the work that goes into creating your gorgeous images.

The experience comes from preparing parents before the shoot, understanding how to read a baby’s behaviour, how to pose safely to keep a baby calm and settled to captures those shots.

A client invests time , money and trust in me to ensure a safe shoot and guaranteed gallery of memories.

Expecting a baby in 2026, especially the next few months? Get in touch to find out more. Pop me a DM.
