Jack is an autumn baby, and his mum and dad chose my wooden bowl as their prop and asked if we could add some autumn accessories to go with it.

Good timing on their part – I’d just finished my pumpkin patch mini session events so I had plenty of autumn things to hand. Mini pumpkins, paper leaves, pine cones, acorns. It was a good set to put together, and the autumn colour palette works really well with the natural tones of the bowl.

The birth announcement details tucked in alongside him are a nice personal touch too. It’s always worth asking if you’d like to include seasonal details or anything specific in your session – I’m always happy to work with whatever you have in mind, and if it involves a bit of shopping for new things, so much the better.

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 calm and natural images. I recommend booking while you’re still pregnant so we can set a provisional date and adjust once your baby arrives.

Your session takes place in my warm, cosy studio in Crawley Down, designed with your baby’s comfort in mind. Sessions are relaxed and unrushed, and include three digital images of your choice for £95. There’s no sales session, just a private online gallery where you can view and choose your favourites in your own time.
