Newborn Photography at Home in London
The First Days, Exactly as They Are
The first week home with a new baby is a blur of beauty and exhaustion — and it passes faster than you can imagine. A home newborn session freezes what actually exists in your space: the specific light through the bedroom curtains, the way your baby fits in the crook of an arm, the look on a sibling's face when they meet the new arrival for the second or third time.
I come to you, wherever you are in London. No studio props or posing frames — just natural window light and a camera ready to catch what's really there.

FAQs
Do you travel to London for newborn sessions?+
Yes — I travel from Cambridge and cover London regularly, especially for newborn sessions. A travel supplement of £60–£80 applies for London boroughs depending on location (confirmed on booking).
When should I schedule a newborn session in London?+
Book during your second trimester (20–28 weeks pregnant) to hold a slot. Once baby arrives, we confirm the exact date — ideally days 5 to 14 when babies are sleepiest and curl most naturally.
Can you photograph in a London flat?+
Absolutely — the majority of my London newborn sessions are in flats and apartments. Good window light is all we need. I travel light and work around your space rather than filling it with equipment.
How long does a newborn session take?+
Allow 2–3 hours, occasionally a little more. We work entirely around baby's schedule — feeding breaks, settling time, and nappy changes are all part of the session. There's never any rush.
What about older siblings?+
The Newborn + Sibling package builds in specific time for sibling portraits. Older children are often curious and do beautifully — if they're reluctant, we just let them observe until they're ready.
