34-37 weeks is ideal - a perfect time to capture your glowing bump, not too early that you're not showing, but not too close to your due date that we might miss out on capturing this milestone.

Newborn's naturally retain the curled-up, fetal positions they had in the womb during the first two weeks following their birth - often referred to as the "newborn scrunch." This natural tendency allows us to capture those adorable, curled-up poses that highlight the baby's delicate features and tiny size.

True Newborn portraits are therefore captured within that precious first 2 weeks. We recommend securing an appointment well in advance for 5 - 10 days after your due date, with priority and flexibility to change this depending on little one’s arrival.

Newborn experiences are limited each month - last-minute bookings cannot be guaranteed.

The ideal window for true newborn portraits can vary based on your baby’s birth weight and can only be finalised after birth:

- 6lb and under at birth - up to 21 days

- Between 6lb - 8lb - up to 14 days

- Over 8lb - ideally within 10 days

This is simply a guide, and every baby is different. While nothing can be guaranteed, the sooner we can meet your little one, the better. If you experience any complications during birth, please don’t worry. We’ll work with you to ensure we capture beautiful images, whatever the age of your baby.

If your baby is already past the 14-day mark for True Newborn portraits, we usually recommend waiting until around 16 weeks (4 months).

At this stage, they’re still very much a precious little baby - but a little stronger, more expressive, and beginning to hold their head up during tummy time. It’s one of our favourite ages to photograph! In those early weeks, babies are busy adjusting to the world - feeding, growing, and finding their rhythm.

Take your time to settle in and soak up those first precious weeks - We’ll be right here when the time feels right.

From our experience, waiting just a little longer allows us to capture a wider range of portraits: gentle tummy time, sweet smiles, and those first glimpses of personality that shine through.

Of course, this is simply a recommendation - we’d love to meet your little one whenever you’re ready.

Your baby has now settled into the world and is beginning to reveal their unique personality.

4 to 12 months is a truly enchanting stage to capture - from joyful expressions and sparkling eyes to playful curiosity and blossoming character. It’s a time filled with wonder and delight!

During these months, your little one will achieve so many special milestones - rolling over, sitting up, crawling, laughing, taking those first wobbly steps, and even celebrating their first birthday.

12 Months & Beyond is a stage all about discovery and adventure, with countless joyful moments waiting to be preserved - from their cheeky grins to their growing confidence.

As they explore the world around them, their personality continues to flourish, brimming with curiosity, playfulness, and charm. Whether they’re toddling around, proudly showing off their latest skills, or sharing a quiet, tender moment, these are memories to treasure forever.

Every stage of childhood is a story worth celebrating, and we’re waiting to help you capture each precious moment.

Parents, siblings, grandparents and even the family pooch are all welcome and encouraged to join every experience, including maternity.

We believe family portraits are more than just pictures — they’re a legacy. You don’t get many opportunities to be in the frame with your little ones, which is why we’re strong advocates for getting involved and being present in the memories you’re creating.

"One day, all your children will have is photographs, make sure you're in them. No matter what your hair looks like, your makeup, or your body, they wont care about any of that, they will just want to see you."

Let us help you give them that gift.
