Newborn Baby

Ideal for babies aged 5 days to 5 weeks.

If baby is already a little older please do still get in touch so we can discuss what I can offer you.

Your newborn baby photography session fee includes:

• 3-4 hour session.
• Use of large selection of props.
• Photographers time and talent.
• Private viewing session back at the studio.
• A gallery of hand edited images to choose from.
• No prints or digitals are included in the session feeProducts are available to purchase at a private viewing session back at the studio approximately 2-3 weeks later. I have a large choice of stunning bespoke products all available in many different sizes and finishes.

Newborn baby photography sessions usually take around 3-4 hours and are completely baby led.  For this reason, I only book one newborn baby photography session per day.  This way I can give my undivided time and full attention to the session.  Preferably for this session babies need to be aged between 5 days to 5 weeks.  However, I understand that for various reasons this isn't always possible so please just give me a call for a chat about your options if your baby is a little older.

Your newborn photography session can be either a mix of images of just baby, or baby with parents and also baby with older sibling.  This will all be discussed prior to your photoshoot.  Due to the length of the photoshoot it is advisable that any young siblings only attend for around the first hour or so.  The length of the session is too long to expect a young child to sit quiet.  You can arrange for a grandparent/friend to collect the sibling after a short period, or Dad can pop out to a local park for a short while while we focus on the baby.  You may also include your pet dog, however as with a young sibling it is adviseable that if you live locally to pop the dog back home or arrange for a relative to collect the dog after we have finished their images. 

At present newborn photography is an unregulated industry whereby many photographers are putting babies in unsafe poses and taking unneccesary risks. I am very proud to say that I am one of very few photographers accross the country that holds a newborn certification in safety with the Master Photography Association. Your babies safety is paramount to me. Before specialising in newborn I spent time training with one of the leading newborn photographers in the Uk.

Most parents have commented on how gentle and caring I am with their newborn baby, with children of my own and having photographed many many babies over the years, I can say I have plenty of experience handling newborn babies.  

"What an absolutely amazing experience.  Had our little girls pictures done today.  Due to unforseen circumstances, we were not able to make it until she was 6 weeks old.  Jo has been so accommodating and is the only photographer I will be using in the future!! So caring and professional and amazing with the little ones!! Thankyou Ladybird Photography!!

"Jo is an absolutely amazing photographer!! She was so professional and friendly with us and our 3 week old baby.  Jo made sure the baby was safe and relaxed throughout the photoshoot which resulted in great pictures.  Photos are stunnung and we would highly recommend her service! Can't wait to do the baby's sitter and first year photoshoot with Jo next:)" Karolina, Cardiff.
