The first few days of a baby’s life pass in a blink. I specialise in gentle, safe newborn photography, creating timeless portraits during that sleepy 5 to 20-day magic window.

A dapper little gentleman. This peaceful, posed shot on a swing is a beautiful example of the artistic and creative portraits I love to create for newborns.

About The Newborn Stage: First Days of Wonder

If you are planning a newborn session, the sweet spot is strictly between 5 and 20 days old. This is when babies are naturally sleepy and easy to curl into those peaceful poses. I always keep our studio quiet and calm, prioritising safety above all—especially for advanced setups like the froggy pose, which is always done as a composite of multiple images with hands never leaving the baby.

Being a mother changed the way I see the world, and it taught me the patience needed to be a baby whisperer. I don't believe in forcing smiles; I wait for the little yawns and sleepy stretches to create real, soulful images. When you step into my studio, my only goal is to preserve the quiet magic of your baby's earliest days.
