This is baby Emily who came to visit for a newborn photo shoot in my warm and cosy studio in Crawley Down, near East Grinstead. She was happy to peacefully doze while I gently moved her around and dressed her up with some lovely props and outfits that her mum and dad brought along and some from

This family brought along so many fun things to include in their newborn photo shoot that I was absolutely spoiled for choice. One of the prop sets that they brought along and were keen to something with was this little lot to reflect their love of music so it was my pleasure to build this

One of the most common questions that I get asked is how to know when to book your newborn photo shoot for. Obviously you don't normally know when your little one is going to arrive exactly and they're not very good at turning up on time - only 4% of babies actually arrive on their

The dad is the case of this photo is justifiably proud of the artwork on his arms and so we would definitely want to feature it at his newborn shoot. In fact, this shot is a recreation of one we took where he was holding his first newborn son and one that was specially requested

This year, the fashion in newborn photography has been all about muted colours and neutrals and lots and lots of texture. So I've added a few items into my wrap collection to offer more variety and this is one of the newer additions. It's a gorgeous neutral beige with great texture between the jersey and

This is a commonly requested shot at newborn photo shoots and it's very easy to see why. It's not the easiest one to achieve though, it requires a very settled baby who is happy in the kind of folded up position that I have to get them in. Not all babies love this position (they

My miniature pink chair is a really popular prop at newborn photo shoots and it's easy to see why (I have a grey one for a more gender neutral look of course). It's a super pretty when teamed with lace and florals - two of my favourite things! However, you can style it up in

Baby Finley came to visit, with his mum and dad of course. He was only a week old so it would be early for his solo engagement. Anyway, his newborn photo shoot went perfectly and he was happy to sleep soundly while we moved him around through various poses, accessories and prop sets. While he

This is the face of a little girl who knows what a little angel she was being at her newborn photo shoot! My little feather angel wings are always a popular accessory at a newborn session as, of course, they are all angels. It's not that often that I get a little smile to go

Most babies who come to the studio for their newborn portraits are usually no older than two weeks of gorgeous newness, but any age up to 4 weeks is still a newborn. West Sussex Newborn Photographer

When you visit for a newborn photo shoot, you're always invited to choose a digital background to include in your finished image gallery.

Naptimes are always better with a buddy and newborn photo shoots are definitely no exception. When a soft toy has long legs, they can also make the perfect pillow!

Surrey Newborn Photography Reigate - darling Sienna 10 days old for her newborn photo shoot by Baby Shoots Photography in Copthorne, West Sussex.

I love the run up to Christmas not least because of all the festive outfits that people bring along to include in their photo shoots. I have all manner of snowmen, Mr & Mrs Clauses and of course, sometimes I get super lucky and get a happy little reindeer thrown into the mix for good

In a perfect world, a newborn would sleep throughout their photo shoot. When they're at their maximum sleepiness, I can gently move and pose them without disturbing them and the session would be super quick and simple. Of course, it isn't actually a perfect world. Some babies are naturally more wakeful especially if they are

This. This is the energy that I'll be looking to take into 2022! This guy was the epitome of charm at his photo shoot recently and he definitely had a big energy about him! This was a family photo shoot actually so there were a mix of shots of him on his own, with his

This picture says it all about the fun of a tub splash photo shoot - there's giggles, splashing and bubbles! When you book a cake smash first birthday photo shoot, there's plenty of time to include a tub splash as well. It's a great way to clean up after a sticky cake smash as well

These beautiful people came to visit the studio recently to get some photos of them as a couple. I asked them what the occasion was out of interest and they said, 'just because' which really is the best possible reason. Lots of their friends have been getting married and have lovely photos of themselves so

The newborn photo shoot window is incredibly short - the photos need to be taken in your baby's first two weeks with you and preferably in the first ten days. If you don't book your session while you're still pregnant, it's pretty easy to miss the opportunity when you're home from the hospital and in

Presenting baby Maisie, sleeping peacefully in her flower nest at her newborn photo shoot - the image of newborn perfection! Maisie is what is medically termed as a 'dinky dot' (pretty sure that is the correct terminology) so my nest prop was kind of big for her and so I added some extra flowers inside

From a smiling princess yesterday to a sleeping princess today. Newborn photo shoots are a totally different animal when compared to shoots with mobile babies and young children. They are calm, warm and quiet sessions where make sure your baby is in a dreamy sleep so I can move and pose them without disturbing them.

There are two things that I like about this baby photo - well three if you count Jack's incredibly cheeky grin. Firstly, I think it shows that you can't really go wrong when it comes to baby photography if you just go for a plain white vest.There's always time for outfit changes at a baby

This is a shot that the mum and dad requested at their recent newborn session and it's actually a really cool variation on the version that I normally do. Generally I pose the newborn on the giant beanbag and have just the dad kneel down in front and hold their little one with their hands
