Newborn Photography East Grinstead West Sussex

The run up to Christmas is always a great opportunity to play dress up – I can’t resist that at the best of times and there’s certainly no holding me back in the festive season.

I’ve had this adorable little reindeer bonnet in my collection for a few years but obviously it’s pretty ‘occasion-specific’ so I don’t get to use it all that much.  Imagine my delight when I got to put it to good use in a December newborn photo shoot.

If you visit in November and December, I’ll always ask you if you’d like to add something festive to your session (my santa hats and indeed reindeer bonnets come out of storage at the start of November).  That way, you can create the perfect festive gift or holiday card image as part of your already scheduled visit.  If you want to bring along your own outfits as well, then you’re always more than welcome!

Newborn Photography

A newborn photo shoot is best when your baby is between 5 and 10 days old as this is when they are at their maximum sleepiness and poseability to capture those dreamy shots.  For this reason, I definitely recommend that you book when you are pregnant as this is one less thing to worry about scheduling when you’ve just got home from the hospital.   We make an appointment for your due date plus 7 days and then adjust it as needed.

My newborn shoots include your three favourite digital images which you select from your online gallery a few weeks after your photo shoot – I don’t make you attend a sales or viewing session.  Sessions take place in my warm and cosy studio in Crawley Down and cost £95.
