A lot of newborn photography requests that I get before a session are for neutral and pastel colours but not for these guys. They had brought the tutu and headband specifically for the session and they wanted something that really stood out for their birth announcement.
Luckily I have a range of backdrops to choose from including some for folk who like a deep rich colour and so I was more than happy to oblige – I’m a real purple fan so this was a very fun image to create for me. Of course it helped that Lyra was a willing little model and we had fun creating lots of different images for her that weren’t all purple themed. The aim of newborn photography as far as I’m concerned is to create the images that you will love and treasure so I’ll always be as flexible as possible when it comes to styling your images – like it neutral? Cool. Want to go wild with colours? Also cool. We’ll build what you love in the studio!
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.
