Newborn
Safety always comes first.
Your baby is the most precious thing in the world, so it's natural that you would only want to hand your baby to someone who understands how to pose them safely. Someone who knows how to soothe your baby and realises that your little bundle of joy is the boss.
I am first aid trained, have photographed hundreds of babies over the years and fully insured.
Lisa
"We had the best time at this photoshoot, being guided on the shots as well as getting to select from the massive arrange of backdrops and accessories/props which we found useful as we could tailor the props to the colour scheme of our house for getting photos printed. Linda was very good and patient with our 3 week old. Nothing was rushed and we would return for a birthday shoot when he is a little older. Thank you!!"

"I got the new born baby pictures with family done and Linda was very patient, great at coordinating and very efficient. I will definitely be returning to get my girls 1st birthday cake smash done."
Donna
"Amazing photographer! Linda has perfectly captured those early days with our daughter which go so quickly. A set of images to treasure forever. She was happy to listen and take images we requested, but also happy to give suggestions and guide us where needed all whilst being sensitive to the needs of our baby."

"I am so pleased we chose Linda to take photos of our newborn. She made us feel very relaxed and comfortable, even on one of the hottest days of the year! We had a rough idea of what we liked beforehand however after talking to Linda she really helps to get what you want out of the shoot, as well as adding her own touch to get the best natural images. Linda is so helpful and even went that extra mile to help us get the photos to fit the exact size we needed for our home. She is very friendly and easy to talk too which is so important when capturing those special moments! - thanks again for our lovely photos I would highly recommend! xxx"
Sonia
"I did a newborn photo session with Linda even though my "newborn" was already 3,5 months. I wanted the photoshoot to be as newborn style as possible and Linda was very happy to help. Pictures are amazing, I'm so glad I did it.Linda is very friendly, patient and full of ideas. I had a lot of requests, it would take too long to list them in this review. Linda was happy to go an extra mile and accommodate my requests. I will definitely book again in the future."
My style is natural posing, so your baby is photographed in positions they can easily fall into, with many unique props and materials to achieve the colour theme and style you are looking for. I don't use digital backdrops. Everything in the images is there, so you can mix and match as you wish. Siblings are of course welcome to join in.
I suggest that the photos are taken when little one is 4-10 days old, but it's never too late to get gorgeous photos of your precious bubba.

You will have full access to all my props, wraps, hairbands, hats, bonnets and backdrops. I will discuss every stage with you to ensure I capture images which you will love and treasure, including tiny toes and fingers.

We will go at your baby's pace so the length of the session depends on how your baby settles and the number of feeding and nappy changing breaks.
