Newborn baby toes with wedding rings

SPECIAL ITEMS


Whenever parents ask me to incorporate a special item I love to except the challenge- I'm not talking big props that overtake the image, more items of jewellery like these wedding rings, or other special trinkets. This image will serve as a constant reminder to this family of just how tiny she once was.

HANDS UNDER CHEEKS

Most babies that come to me love to lie on their sides, and I adore posing their hands under their cheeks to exaggerate their little faces, whilst keeping them curled up, just like they would have been in your tummy.

HANDS ON CHEEKS


This one can sometimes be surprisingly tricky as baby naturally curls their hand into a fist most of the time! With patience though this shot is really worth it- I love how you can see on the tiny details- fingers, cheeks, ears, nose, eyes, lips. All of their perfect little new baby details in one shot.

ADDING TEXTURE


I just can't resist adding some texture and depth to an image by using a cascading blanket. It compliments this airy and timeless look so much. The softness of the blankets just help babies perfect skin "pop".

A BIG STRETCH


They've spent 9 months cosy and squished in your tummy, so I just love it when baby goes for a natural stretch out- they really enjoy themselves! An absolutely essential portrait for your newborn baby gallery.

HOLDING HANDS


Another image to show scale- your fingers in their teeny hands. Can you believe how strong their grip is? How beautiful in years to come to look back at this detailed portrait of you both. Even if you are not feeling your best after having your new baby, this is a perfect way of being in the image, without fully being in the image.

TINY TOES


I love asking new parents to cuddle babies toes together. They're just perfect safe in Mummy or Daddy's hands.

CUDDLES


Using glorious natural light, I think this is the perfect way to photograph baby safe in your arms. It's all about connection and emotion.

KISSES


Images that are back lit have such an ethereal look, and it's the best way to capture babies profile, and of course your pride and love for them!
