A.The best time to book is around your 20 week scan. I only take a small handful of newborn sessions each month, so the earlier the better to make sure you don't miss out as I get booked up very quickly. I don't like turning people away when they try to book in once baby has arrived, as most of the time I do not have any availability to squeeze them in.

A.The best age to photograph a newborn is between 4-14 days following birth, but the sooner the better. During this time frame babies are more likely to sleep soundly when being repositioned, and they still have that beautiful baby curliness which helps positioning.

A.Babies over the age of 2 weeks have more awake time, wake much easier when being repositioned, and generally don’t sleep as soundly as 'younger' newborns. However, do not let this put you off. I have photographed newborns as old as 8 weeks, and although they tend to be more awake and alert throughout the session, I am still able to capture beautiful images, they just make me work harder to get them!

A.All sessions take place in my studio in Birkenhead, Wirral. It is light and airy and designed for you to sit back, relax, and enjoy watching me create the special images of your tiny new life!

I've had many parents take a nap, chill out and have some time together, or simply put their feet up and watch netflix whilst I work my magic with your little one. I want you to feel as comfortable as you would do in your own home. So when I say make yourself at home, I truly mean it.

A.Of course! I always encourage sibling and family photos in my sessions. I tend to do the sibling and family images at the beginning of the session so that they are ready to go, but as they can get easily bored once this has been done then I do recommend that someone is able to take them home or out for some lunch or a walk. If this isn't possible then I just ask that you bring them something to keep them occupied. If this may be a tablet for them to watch, I ask that headphones are also provided as we want to keep baby as settled as possible.

A.Yes, I provide everything that is needed. When booking, you will be sent a questionnaire that asks about colour themes and styling which then helps me prepare for when you arrive.

All I ask is that you bring 2-3 extra bottles of milk if you are bottle feeding incase baby needs topping up throughout the session. I have a perfect prep machine available within the studio to help the making of a bottle easier. This will more than likely be the case, but is totally normal due to how much I will be moving baby. I will also send you over a preparation guide of what to bring when the booking is made, so no need to panic!

A.Around 1 week after the session has taken place, you will be invited back to the studio for your in person viewing appointment. Here you will be shown all of the images on a beautiful slideshow and then individually so that you are able to chose which package you would like to purchase. Once you have chosen, I aim for a turn around time of around 2-4 weeks for your digital images to be delivered on your own personalised online gallery. Any additional products such as prints or wall art will have their own timeframes on which will be explained at the appointment. These will be ordered once your digitals have been sent to you, and then updates on those products will be sent to you.

If your gallery is slightly longer than the stated turnaround time, this does not mean I've forgotten about it, it will mean I'm still working on your images. Every session is different in its own way and requires different methods of editing depending on various things. I work tirelessly behind the scenes to get galleries to their forever homes as fast as possible. As soon as galleries are finished, I send them straight to your email! If there are any delays, you will be notified immediately.

A.Yes you can! Once you have downloaded your images you are free to print them and use them how you wish. It is however illegal to edit or alter them in any way including social media filters as per signed in your contract.

I do recommend getting your prints and wall art products through me to guarantee quality, but you are under no obligation to do so. I am not liable for any prints or products I have not supplied, especially lower quality high street quality printers.

The lab I use supply the highest quality, fine art professional products which are best teamed with your professional images. Please contact me for further information in regards to a price list.
