FAQs

Outfits for your Newborn Love Story session don’t need to be perfect—comfort is key. If you get the chance, set aside something cosy and cohesive for the family. There’s no need to match or overdress. Embrace colour, texture, and pattern, but please avoid logos and cartoon prints. Layers are always a great idea. For dad, consider something with buttons or a stylish denim jacket for those precious skin-on-skin shots. Kids look adorable in earthy or pastel tones paired with denim. The goal is to feel comfortable and look naturally beautiful. Feel free to contact me for style advice if needed.

During your Newborn Love Story session, you can expect a relaxed and stress-free experience. The session will last about 45 to 60 minutes, allowing plenty of time to capture genuine, unposed moments. We let your baby lead the way, documenting real, raw, and natural interactions without any forced poses. Whether at the hospital or in your home, we'll create a comfortable environment where you can simply enjoy these precious first hours together. Expect a collection of heartfelt images that celebrate the joy of parenthood and the unique bond with your newborn.

I understand that your baby will arrive in their own time, and flexibility is key. We do our best to stay in touch, and I aim to arrive within 5 hours of birth if you’re ready. During visiting hours as a guest in your hospital room. However, life happens, and we may need to adjust. The session could take place within 48 hours or even a few days later. If you’re already at home, that’s perfectly fine too. Communication is crucial, so I make myself available via text message to ensure we can coordinate the session smoothly. We'll work together to capture these precious moments as soon as possible.

No worries at all! It’s completely normal for newborns to be fussy or need breaks. We take a relaxed and flexible approach, allowing plenty of time for feeding, changing, and comforting your baby. Our goal is to capture genuine, heartfelt moments, and sometimes those in-between moments are the most precious. There’s no rush, and we’ll ensure that both you and your baby are comfortable throughout the session. Just relax and enjoy the experience—we’ll work around your baby’s needs to create beautiful memories.

These sessions are designed for immediate family only, focusing on mum, dad, and siblings. This approach helps keep the experience special and intimate, allowing us to document the closeness and unique bond within your immediate family. By keeping the group small, we ensure that the moments captured are genuine and heartfelt, highlighting the love and connection you share during these precious early days.
