EVERY DETAIL
CAPTURED
I have over 9 years experience as a specialist newborn photographer, have undertaken expert training in the safe posing and handling of babies as well as being a Mummy myself to two beautiful boys. By choosing me as your newborn photographer you are putting your brand new baby in the hands of a professional. I work in a baby centred way, putting the comfort and safety of your baby first at all times.
The Beautiful Bairns studio has free on site parking, a big comfy sofa and all home comforts for you to enjoy! Log in to the wifi, enjoy a cup of tea (while its still hot!) and watch while I soothe your baby into beautiful poses for gorgeous images you will love forever.

BEFORE YOUR SESSION
Babies are unpredictable! So we make things as easy as possible for you.
We only book a limited number of newborn sessions each month.

We will chat over a cuppa and choose the perfect olour palette for your images so they look beautiful when on display in your home.
Then you can sit back, relax and watch as I get baby relaxed into a deep sleep and perfectly posed.
AFTER YOUR SESSION
We will schedule your viewing & ordering appointment to take place around a week after your photoshoot.
All of your images will be expe1tly retouched for viewing and displayed in a slideshow.
We will work together to create the perfect package to suit your home and budget.
Your digital images will be ready to take home on the day.
Printed products will be shipped directly to your home or if you prefer we can have them delivered to the studio for you to collect at your convenience.
WHAT SHOULD BABY WEAR?
At the studio I have a huge selection of beautiful fabrics, hats, headbands, wraps and props.
For most images baby will be naked so there is no need to bring any clothing. If you prefer for baby to be covered we can do so using beautiful fabrics.
This way you can still see how small and delicate baby is without being swamped by baggy clothing.
