NEWBORN SESSIONS…
SESSION FEE: £50 (£40 weekdays)
When your baby is between 5 days and 3 weeks old it is the perfect time to bring them to my home studio in Gloucestershire to be photographed. I am more than happy to photograph babies of up to 5/6 weeks, however babies of this age are generally much more alert and less curled up by this point so the session would involve un-posed, awake shots rather than posed, sleepy shots. After this age I suggest waiting until your baby is older to be photographed – my milestone mini sessions are suitable for older babies from 4 months onward.
I have various props and accessories available for you to use (see the gallery for photos), and can photograph your newborn in a variety of natural, beautiful poses. The session can last anything from 2-3 hours allowing for settling, feeding and changing times – you will never feel rushed and I will try to make your experience as relaxed as possible for you and your baby.
You can reserve a session during your pregnancy, and once your baby is born we can arrange a convenient time for the session to take place. I have had training from some of the top specialist newborn photographers in the country, so you can be assured that you and your baby will have a great experience. I am also a member of BANPAS (www.banpasforparents.co.uk), which promotes safe working practices among its members.
After your session I will carefully select and edit images to bring out the best in each picture, and contact you by email when they are ready with a link to a password-protected gallery where you can view and purchase your images online.
Your session fee includes:
- newborn baby photo shoot in my comfortable studio in Churchdown, Gloucester – 2-3 hours in duration
- refreshments while the session takes place (teas, coffee, etc)
- use of my props and accessories
- editing and processing of between 20 and 30 carefully selected images from your session
- a private, password-protected online viewing gallery, where you can choose the images and products you wish to purchase (please view my products and prices page for further information)
- a little goody bag of treats for you and your baby
To book your newborn photography session you can either pay a £20 fee to secure your booking if you are currently pregnant (the remainder of the session fee is due at the time of your session), or pay the full session fee at the time of booking if your baby has already been born. Please note that discounted sessions at a cost of £40 (20% off the standard fee) are available on weekdays.
I would highly recommend Becky. She took amazing pictures and was very patient with [our daughter]. The turnaround was very quick and the pictures were available in a very good time frame. We will definitely be going back to her for more picture sessions for future landmarks in our lives.
It was a pleasure to meet her and the photo session was great!– DSM
