The studio has a range of props available for newborn sessions, and you’re welcome to use any of them.

  • wooden hammock prop
  • wooden bowl prop
  • white miniature wooden bed prop
  • vintage suitcase prop
  • rustic vintage trolley prop
  • grey chair prop
  • Pink chair studio prop
  • Photography Props West Sussex Studio
  • light wooden bowl prop

I’d usually suggest building up to one prop set-up per session. It’s not compulsory at all, and plenty of sessions don’t use any props, but if you’d like to include one, you choose it on your pre-session form so I can have everything ready when you arrive. Less time setting up means more time while your baby is settled and sleeping.

The props in the gallery above are shown on their own so you can see what each one looks like, but they’re all completely customisable. Different backdrops, wraps, blankets, and accessories change the whole feel of an image, so what you see here is really just the starting point. If you’ve spotted something specific in my gallery that you’d like to recreate, or you have a colour palette in mind, just get in touch before your session and we can work something out.

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.
