When it comes to newborn photo shoots, getting in front of the camera for a family photo is a bit of a Marmite thing.
That’s understandable as you don’t tend to get a lot of sleep during those first few hazy newborn weeks but then again, you’ve just expanded your family so it’s definitely worth commemorating.
This shot, which is one of the most commonly requested ways of creating a family image, is actually a really good compromise between not feeling quite camera ready but also wanted to create an image to look back on. We work with a silhouette style which is really forgiving but also creates a gorgeous piece of artwork that will look wonderful on your wall.

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.
