a mum, dad and older daughter welcome a newborn into their family at a professional photo shoot

There’s something so special about those first family portraits after a baby is born.

I love creating space for families to simply be—to hold each other close and celebrate the new life they’ve created together.

This image is all about connection: the softness of big sister’s focus, the proud smiles from Mum and Dad, and the peaceful little one cradled safely in the middle of it all.

My newborn sessions always include time for sibling and family portraits, giving you a full record of this amazing chapter. And while newborns are the star of the show, these moments of togetherness are often the most treasured.

If you’re thinking of booking a newborn photoshoot, you’re very welcome to come and take a look around the studio first. I offer a warm, relaxed space designed for comfort and calm — perfect for welcoming your new arrival.

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.
