Newborn Photography
Once in a life time
Newborn photography is a once in a lifetime experience as your child will change and grow in the blink of an eye. Capturing these teeny tiny details that will change so quickly is an investment that you will treasure forever.
Most newborn sessions take place within the first 10-14 days after the baby is born. At this stage I can pose your baby in those sleepy curled up positions that you will see in my portfolio.
After two weeks it is still possible to photograph your newborn however, babies tend to be less sleepy and want to stretch out, so certain poses might not be possible. This is why it is best to photograph your newborn baby within the first two weeks of their life.
Your Newborn Photo Session
Before the session, I will discuss the styles that you love, the session we will have, and I will work with you to capture the type of images you will want to cherish forever. Ideally you need to book during pregnancy as my diary fills very quickly, and I can't guarantee late availability (although it does happen, so do drop me an email to check!)
On booking a session I will send you a special code to access to my Before Your Session information. This information will help prepare you and your newborn for the day and make the most out of your session.
Please allow 4 hours for your newborn photography session, as I allow time for feeding, pee, poo, puke, and of course cuddling! I only undertake one newborn session per day to allow a no stress no rush session.

The Right Newborn Photographer
Choosing newborn photographer is a difficult decision! I hope from the images on my website's gallery and reading reviews from previous customers you will see that Newborn photography is something that I specialise in.
I have a degree in photography and started specialising in newborn photography over 10 years ago. I am fully insured and have trained extensively in newborn safety and in the art of newborn posing. I am a proud member of the Baby and Newborn Photography Network who promote newborn safety. I am lucky enough to have trained with some of the leading newborn photographers in the UK and from the US.
From Click to Keepsake
When to book
As babies rarely arrive on their due date I allow plenty of space in my diary to accommodate for early and late arrivals. Most of my clients book around their 20 weeks scan, however my diary does fill up quickly as I only do a few shoots each week so its best to book as early as you can. When you book with me I will 'pencil in' your estimated due date in my diary to keep your place.

FAQs
When should I book my newborn photography session?
I recommend that you book your newborn photography session at your 20 week scan. Your estimate due date will be placed on my calendar and I will be looking forward to hearing from you just as soon as the baby is born.
What if my baby has already arrived?
If you baby has already arrived and is still under 14 days old please get in touch. From time to time I have free spaces in my diary for last minute newborn photography sessions.
What areas do you cover?
My studio is base in Drumsagard 20 mins drive from Glasgow. I am based only few minutes away from from Cambuslang, Rutherglen, Blantyre, Uddingston, Hamilton and East Kilbride. However I have many clients that have travelled from all over the West of Scotland, Paisley, Kirkintilloch, Bishopbriggs, Newton Mearns, Bearsden.
Can parents and siblings be photographed with the baby?
Of course! I love to capture intimate portraits of new parents with their newborn babies. Siblings are welcome to the studio however you might want to arrange a family member to take your older children away after they have had their photographs taken. As newborn sessions can last 3-4 hours this can be boring for toddlers to sit through.
Can my dog be photographed with the baby?
You are more than welcome to bring your dog to the newborn photography session, I would always recommend that you bring a family member to look after your dog during the session and the dog should have basic sit and stay training.
What should I wear to my newborn photography session?
I have a Pinterest page with inspiration on coordinating your outfits. It's advisable to bring a change of clothing in case of any accidents.
Do I need to bring in props to use during the session?
I have a lots of luxury props for newborn photography to use during the sessions. If there is some specific that you would like to include please consult me beforehand.
What if my baby doesn't settle?
There is no guarantee on any outcome as babies are unpredictable and cannot be forced to perform! Every effort will be made to provide you with up to 25 images. I provide a before the session guide to help prepare you and your baby to get the most of your session. I have many techniques to sooth and settle your baby.
