Welcoming a newborn into the world is one of life’s most special moments. Those first few weeks, filled with tiny fingers, sleepy snuggles, and adorable yawns, go by in a blur. That's why having a newborn photography session at home is such a beautiful way to freeze these fleeting moments in time, allowing you to cherish them forever.

A newborn session at home brings a sense of calm and comfort for both baby and parents. There’s no need to rush out to a studio or worry about your little one adjusting to an unfamiliar environment. Instead, you can relax in the space where you feel most at ease—your own home.

In the whirlwind of those first few weeks, it’s easy to forget how small they truly are. Newborn photography helps you preserve these fleeting stages—those tiny toes, soft skin, and precious little expressions that change so quickly. These photographs will be a timeless reminder of those early moments, creating a treasure trove of memories you can look back on for years to come.

The beauty of having the session at home is that it allows for a more personalised experience. We can capture your baby in the most meaningful places—like their nursery, the family’s favourite spot to cuddle, or even the cozy living room where you share those quiet, peaceful moments. These images reflect the true essence of your family and your journey together.

In the midst of the joy, the challenges, and the sleepless nights, a newborn photography session is a chance to slow down, appreciate the present, and preserve it forever. It’s more than just pictures—it’s a way of holding onto time and celebrating the miracle of new life in a way that will bring you joy for years to come. I always feel incredibly honoured to capture such a precious milestone. Check out some of our favourites from a recent newborn shoot below!
