I love photographing new babies of all ages and have no strict time-frame on your baby's age.  If you long to capture your baby while they still have that fresh "newborn look", you might want to schedule the session for 5 to 14 days after your due date. At this age you can expect your baby to sleep (and feed) for a good part of the session - just one of the reasons why I love to document these hazy, early days of parenthood so much.

If you'd rather give yourself a little more time to settle into new life as a family, then that is absolutely fine too. As the weeks and months unfold your baby will become more alert and awake for longer periods; allowing me to capture more connection and maybe even a few smiles. Whatever you baby's age, my promise is to create a wealth of beautiful and meaningful memories.

When is the best age to have my baby photographed?

I am based in beautiful Richmond-upon-Thames and cover west London including Teddington, St Margarets, Twickenham, Kew, Barnes, Chiswick, Wimbledon and Kensington & Chelsea. I also cover most of Surrey including Kingston-upon-Thames, Esher, Cobham and Weybridge. I am also available for location shoots in central London. At certain times of the year, I am able to travel further-a-field including overseas. Please contact me to discuss your location ideas.

BEFORE THE SHOOT

I only shoot on location: your home or somewhere you love to spend time as a family. That could be your local park, out in the countryside or along the river. I want to capture real memories for your family in meaningful settings.

BEFORE THE SHOOT

When is the best age to have my baby photographed?

I offer a bespoke experience for all my families; every single shoot is unique - just as every family is. My session fees start at £125. This covers the photo-taking time on the day and also some time in the weeks leading up to your shoot preparing: getting to know you via a consultation and ensuring space in my diary should your baby arrive earlier or later than expected. It also includes my time and artistry to create a gallery of beautiful images that tell the story of a morning in the life of your family. I will work in a digital dark room to enhance each photograph to the very best professional quality: working on colours, black and whites and any re-touching, if required.

The session fee does not include any of the photographs, printed or as digital copies. You have the freedom to choose from a selection of products and collections. I do not have a minimum spend but as a guide, most of my clients invest a further £450 - £3,000 on a range of beautiful, heirloom-quality, printed and digital products. For further details of my product pricing please order an e-brochure.

When is the best age to have my baby photographed?

Yes! I sell a limited number of vouchers each year. I always recommend contributing enough to cover the session fee, as well as one or two products.

Due to the level of investment involved I also recommend sharing my pricing guide with the gift recipients beforehand. Please see How does your pricing work?

BEFORE THE SHOOT

When is the best age to have my baby photographed?

Absolutely! I love meeting families from all over the world and helping them to create happy memories of their time in the UK. I've had the pleasure to photograph families from the USA Canada, Singapore, Thailand, China, Saudi Arabia and Australia. I'll come with camera in hand and a whole host of location ideas, as well as tips and recommendations for your trip.

Of course, if you'd like me to travel overseas to capture your family at home (or away) then, at certain times of the year, that can also be arranged.

BEFORE THE SHOOT

When is the best age to have my baby photographed?

As soon as you know you want to have a photo shoot with me. I want to provide the very best service, and work, for each family I photograph, so I take on a limited number of sessions each month. As a result, I tend to get booked up 6 - 8 weeks in advance. At my busiest time of the year (October - December) it can be up to 12 weeks. For newborn sessions, I advise you book after your 20 week scan and for maternity sessions for when you are between 30-36 weeks gestation.

My biggest tip in preparing for a photo shoot is to relax. The less pressure you put on yourself, and your family, to get 'perfect shots' - the more likely we are to get them. I will send you plenty of information before the shoot with tips on how to prepare and we will also have a chat over the 'phone to go through any questions and ideas that you have.

THE PHOTO SHOOT

How can we prepare for the photo shoot?

It's so important to be yourself so don't feel like you have to dress up for the occasion. I do recommend that you think about the colours of your family's clothes and how they work with the backgrounds we are shooting against. A good and simple rule is to coordinate but not match. For young babies I prefer simple items like vests but for toddlers and older children, feel free to play around with patterns, layers and accessories like hats. There will be more tips for what to wear in my pre-session guide and we will also have time on the day to talk through wardrobe ideas. You can find more tips on how to dress and style your family for the photo shoot by reading my guide here.

THE PHOTO SHOOT

How can we prepare for the photo shoot?

Please do not worry if you, your partner or your children are camera shy. It is totally normal - I even feel the same way myself. I will spend some time getting to know you all better before I pull out my camera, and it will feel more like a play date with a friend, rather than a formal photo shoot. You won't even have to look at the camera if you don't want to. I want to capture natural and authentic moments, so just focus on having fun with your family and I will capture it all as it happens. You can read more about my style and my approach on my About page.

THE PHOTO SHOOT

How can we prepare for the photo shoot?

The shoot will take place in your home or outside, somewhere you enjoy spending time as a family. I have photographed families in parks, out in the countryside, by the river and also in central London. I am also happy to include both for older babies and children if you want to mix things up a bit, although I do suggest choosing somewhere close by. If you would like some ideas for shoot locations please take a look at my outdoor shoot guide for some suggestions and sample sessions. Most shoots take place in the morning and when I arrive at your home I will look around to see w hat rooms have the best light and backgrounds.

THE PHOTO SHOOT

How can we prepare for the photo shoot?

Most sessions take about 2 hours - although I don't work to a strict time limit. If you would like to be photographed at two locations (e.g. your home and a local park ) it may take a bit longer . For newborn sessions, please set aside 3-4 hours. I always include time for bottle/breast-feeding and comforting for younger babies, and snacks and a rest from the camera for older toddlers and children.

THE PHOTO SHOOT

How can we prepare for the photo shoot?

In the lead up to your shoot I will keep a close eye on the weather forecast. If it looks to be wet we have a few options...

Change the location to your home and stay warm and dry indoors .

Make a feature of it - think welly boots and jumping in puddles!

If you really want shots outside, but the weather is very bad, I am more than happy to re-schedule for another date (please note this is subject to my availability - you may have to wait a few weeks ).

Please do not worry if the day turns out to be grey and cloudy, overcast skies produce beautiful soft light which is very flattering.

Absolutely, it's important that we get your baby or child is at their best in order to capture happy and joyful images. I am happy to offer one re-schedule free of charge due to illness. Please note that further re-schedules are subject to a re-booking fee (50% of the original session fee).

Your gallery will be live for two weeks for you to decide which photographs you would like to buy. You can order online, by email or over the telephone - whatever is easiest for you.

Most of the children I photograph have a runny nose at some point during the shoot so I will I will re-touch your final selected photographs to clean up any dirt etc. I leave everything else as nature intended unless you have a special request.
