At home newborn photoshoot

unsure if a newborn photoshoot is for you?

Here I’ll guide you through everything you can expect from the experience with me, and why it'll be the best decision you ever made. Let’s make some memories together!

Capture the early days with a newborn shoot at home

Those first few weeks with a newborn can feel like a blur of feeding, nappy changes and minimal sleep, so the thought of organising a photoshoot might feel like one thing too many.

But the thing I hear most often from parents is how grateful they are that they did it. I regularly get messages saying their photos made them cry (in the best way possible!) Because these images aren’t just about how tiny your baby is. They’re about freezing time on how it felt in those early days.

Your baby will never be this small again, and I’d love to help you preserve those memories with a relaxed, natural newborn photoshoot at home.

 

Tiny toes, curled-up hands, furry ears and flakey skin — let’s document it all. This is the start of a wonderful family adventure, and I’d be honoured to capture it for you.

Why a newborn photoshoot at home is perfect

There is nothing quite like the comfort of your own home, especially when you've just had a baby. It's a magical way to tell not only your family story, but your baby's first home too. And the bonus is you don't need to rush out of the house on time either!

Before you panic about tidying or cleaning, let me say I do not care if your house is messy. We only need a few well lit spots to create some magic during your newborn photoshoot at home, and if things need moving I will do it. You just need to relax and make yourself a cup of tea that you can drink for once whilst it's hot!

Wondering when to book your newborn photography session?

We all know baby's turn up when they want, which makes it difficult to plan a newborn photography session, right? Well guess what, I have the perfect workaround for that so read on.

 

Newborn photoshoots are booked in with a provisional date 10-14 days after your due date. All you need to do is let me know when they're here and we can finalise the date then. I only take on a few newborn photography clients per month to ensure I can be flexible, so booking in advance after your 12 week scan is strongly advised.

If your gorgeous little one has already made their way earth-side, please send me a message to check my availability for newborn photography as I always try to accommodate last minute requests where can.

"Natasha made our experience very pleasant and easy even on the hottest day."

She was really personable and friendly, and was able to settle our little one easily. The photo’s themselves are incredible, she has really captured our daughter beautifully and we can’t thank her enough.

KIND WORDS FROM FAMILIES...

"When we received the photos, I was honestly blown away. They’re magic. You’d never guess the chaos that unfolded just moments before."

Shoot day arrived after a shocker of a night. We were exhausted, the house was a mess, and everything felt chaotic. But from the second Natasha walked in, she brought such a calm, reassuring energy that instantly put us at ease. It turned out to be genuinely fun, and we all really relaxed into it. That's how good she is!
