Meet Maisie, who slept through absolutely everything.

Maisie was on the smaller side, which meant the nest prop was a little roomy for her on its own. The solution was more flowers, which felt like a very reasonable problem to have. I’m fairly confident you can’t overdo flowers in newborn photography, and this one tested that theory.

She was completely unbothered by all of it. Fast asleep for her own session, fast asleep for the family shots, fast asleep for the photos with her big brother. Some babies make it very easy.

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.
