Is flash safe for newborn babies?
Flash is safe for newborns — it’s no harsher than natural daylight and doesn’t disturb babies during their portraits.

Yes — studio flash is safe for children’s eyes. I can adapt my lighting if your child is sensitive to make sure they’re comfortable.
Simple, comfortable outfits in neutral or pastel colours work best. Avoid bold logos or busy patterns, and bring 2–3 options such as a classic outfit, something fun, and a favourite sleepsuit. Bare feet and little toes always photograph beautifully.
No — I don’t hold viewing or sales appointments. Your finished images are included in the session fee and will be sent to you digitally at print quality, ready for you to use however you like. No hard sell, no pressure — just simple, straightforward portraits.
My photography studio is in Crawley Down, near East Grinstead, and it’s easy to reach from Horsham, Crawley, Haywards Heath, Tunbridge Wells, and the wider West Sussex and Surrey areas. There’s free parking right outside, making your visit simple and stress-free.
