We kept the feel of the shoot very natural with soft lighting, lots of whites and some gorgeous flower garlands for the full effect. When a family chooses a look like this that simply compliments them it makes my job very easy. We have a great range of newborn photographs for this family to enjoy and it was simply a

Baby and Children's photography has been a passion of mine for a very long time and I am extremely lucky to be able to do what I do every single day. A few things to remember when booking your baby and children's photo session is firstly to choose a time of day that best suits your child’s mood and carefully consider their sleeping and eating patterns. - We recommend that you pack a suitable bag containing your child’s favourite snacks, treats and refreshments along with bibs
