Babies only or babies with other family members ?
I have photographed hundreds of babies over the years and it is
obviously great for parents to have these reminders of their baby's
early years , but looking back I have noticed that very few parents ,
grand parents or great grand parents ever ask to be involved in the
photo sessions . These images , if taken , form part of your new baby's
family history and will become family heirlooms , so I am going to
make a conscious effort to do more of these and the Classical Portrait sessions
are an ideal style to capture these memories . I know it's not everyone
that enjoys being photographed , I know I don't and that's why I stay
behind the camera , but I feel that these family memories are very
important and will become treasured memories for your future generations
, so if you would like to be photographed with your baby , also
grandparents and great grandparents , please mention this when you
contact me and I will arrange a special session for you all .
100% guaranteed . I am confident that you will love the images I
create for you , if not , I will refund your session fee . Although I
have been taking photographs for many years , starting out with film and
printing my own black and white work , I am always looking to learn and
have recently completed an Advanced Photoshop course , this way I am
always improving and my clients get even better images . Please contact
me to find out what we can do for you .
Baby Portrait Photography Advice
I always recommend waiting until your baby
is a minimum of 16 weeks old before having them photographed , the
reason is that they really have to be strong enough to lift their head
up in order to get really nice images . When their neck muscles develop
and they can lie on their stomach and easily lift their head up ,
without any sign of struggling , then this is the ideal stage to book
them in . I have been photographing babies since 2006
and have photographed hundreds of them , so this advice comes with a
lot of experience behind it . I know a lot of places will take babies in
earlier than this age , but I personally think these images are not the
best , as the babies need to be propped up , or end up
with their head sinking into a cushion , not the best way to show off
your lovely baby .
Your Baby Photography Session
There is no time limit on any
of my sessions , I always leave plenty of time between appointments
and this means that there is never any rush . This gives time to let
the baby settle in and get used to being in the studio before I start . I suggest you bring along a change of outfit , nothing
specific , just one of your favourites , I can also do a "nappy shot" ,
which is always popular . I will , where possible , do a split session
with two different looks , a white background "high key" session and a
more traditional "low key " session incorporating a hand painted canvas
backdrop , both of these looks will be included in the one booked
session , so you get two completely different looks for your baby's
images .
Viewing your images
A few days after the session , you will be
invited along to the studio to view a slideshow of your images , these
will be shown on a large screen via a digital projector . I have software available to help make the ordering process easier for
you and we are on hand to give advice on sizes and styles to suit your
requirements

you will love the images I create for you and your baby , if not I
will refund your session fee .
