If you’d like to use your newborn photo shoot to create a birth announcement image, then this custom-designed prop set is just the thing.

It was actually one of the first that I ever put together so it has been delivering good news to many family and friends for more than a decade.

It’s styled in soft, neutral tones to suit any session, and you can personalise the setup with your baby’s name, birth date, weight and time of arrival. You can use it as a traditional announcement, a thank-you card design, or simply as a keepsake image to mark the moment your baby officially arrived in the world.  It works with almost any of my props as well as with my giant beanbag so you can customise your baby’s introduction to your taste!

Newborn Photography in East Grinstead

Newborn photo shoots are best when your baby is between 5 and 10 days old—this is when they’re at their sleepiest and curliest, perfect for capturing those beautifully serene images. To ensure you don’t miss out, I recommend booking while you’re still pregnant—we’ll set a provisional date for a week after your due date and adjust if needed once your baby arrives.

Your session takes place in my warm and cosy studio in Crawley Down, designed for your baby’s comfort. The shoot is relaxed, unrushed, and includes three digital images of your choice, all for £95. There’s no sales session—just a private online gallery where you can view and select your favourites at your own pace.
