What to Expect from your Session
1. Book In
Pay your Booking Fee (for a Full Newborn Session including family images) or the full session amount for your Mini Newborn Session. I will reserve your space in my diary for when baby arrives. Once they are here we will confirm a date and time for the session.
2. Your Session
You will have told me what you are looking for on your Questionnaire when booking, so I will have everything ready to welcome you in a warm and cosy studio.
All Newborn Sessions are baby-led with time for feeding, soothing and cuddles.
Typically Newborn Sessions are booked for a weekday morning, but I do sometimes have weekend availability if you need it for school aged siblings.
3. Your Photos
You will be keen to view your images, and I will aim to get your gallery ready for you within my normal lead time of 2-3 weeks.
The Viewing (included in Full Newborn only) will be scheduled via Zoom or Teams, and we will sit down together at a mutually convenient time (often an evening when the kids are in bed) to go through your beautiful gallery and you can choose which you want to keep. Be prepared to fall in love with them all though!
Images are downloaded directly from your private gallery once full payment has been cleared. Any products are ordered upon full balance clearance and will need to be collected from the studio upon being delivered and passing my quality control.
How to Get Booked In
Booking your newborn photography session in Ipswich is simple and stress-free. First, get in touch via the contact form on my website or send me a message via Whatsapp on +44 07718 224435. Once I’ve confirmed I have availability for your due date, a £75 session fee is required to reserve your space in my diary. This is a flexible space, allowing for baby to arrive early or later than planned.
Ahead of your session I’ll provide you with all the details you need to prepare, including what to bring, and tips on how to make the session as relaxed and enjoyable as possible. My goal is to make your newborn photoshoot a calm, fun, and memorable experience from start to finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I book my session for?
Most families book after they’ve had their 20 week scan, but you can book as soon as you find out you’re pregnant if you prefer.
I pencil in your due date on booking, allowing 2 weeks flexibility either side of your due date for if baby comes early or late. We confirm a date and time once little one has arrived.
I only do one newborn session a day, so in order to secure your space in my diary it is advisable to book as soon soon as you can.
Can we be in the photos too?
Full newborn sessions allow enough time for family posing before we focus on your baby’s photos. Bring along a well behaved dog too if you’d like! Just message me first so I know they are coming.
Please note that Mini Newborn Sessions are for baby only.
Will you edit my photos?
Typically my approach is to remove any temporary imperfections such as spots, dry skin, gooey eyes etc.
I don’t do harsh skin edits unless you want me to as I like to keep my photos as natural as possible. I also make sure to retain skin texture in images as this is very important. No AI here!
Can I choose my own images?
Includes a Viewing Appointment which is done online. This way, you can view your private gallery from the comfort of your own home and choose the images you love.
NO – Mini Newborn Session
I choose the best five images from your Mini Newborn Session to edit and send to you.
How much is it to book?
Full Newborn Session
I ask for a booking fee of £75 to reserve your space in my diary. This is deducted from your final package price.
My diary allows flexibility for baby’s arrival two weeks each side of their due date, so don’t worry, once you are booked in your session is guaranteed.
You just need to let me know when little one has arrived so we can confirm the date and time of your session.
Mini Newborn Session
The full session price of £195 is due upon booking.
Either let me know once little one has arrived so that we can confirm a date, or if they have already arrived then we can confirm this at booking.
Do I need to bring anything?
If you want to bring along any special items please do, but all the outfits/props etc are ready here for you to choose from.
