IN-HOME NEWBORN SESSIONS

Your love-filled family story begins here.

PERTH NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

Let me capture your first few days with your new baby in your happy place - your home.

Having a new baby is one of the most amazing experiences of our human existence. I want to help you to document every detail, from gorgeous baby toes to their little hands grasping at your finger. I want to capture the way you held your baby to the way you could nuzzle your face into the creak of their tiny neck, the way you take in that newborn smell and the tiny clothes that you bought for the first time.

These first few days go all so fast and will become a blur (trust me)- having photos to look back on in 1 year, 10 years, 30 years will be a precious gift for the whole family.

My in-home newborn sessions take place in the first 6-12 days after your baby is born, on a weekday starting at 10am. I will give you all the information you need to ensure an easy and relaxing experience for all the family, including what to expect, how to prepare your newborn and what to wear. These sessions normally last around 1-2 hours and are fully baby-led. We will stop for as many feeds and nappy changes as needed!

I will look for the best light in your home and only use those rooms that are well-lit. This normally includes the master bedroom, the living area and the baby's nursery.

The Process

Booking your session

To book your session simply fill out my contact form and let me know you are ready to book! I will send you an email with all the info you need, an invoice, a questionnaire as well as my contract form which you will need to sign. This is all done online and is all very straight-forward!

Baby is born!

As soon as baby is born let me know and we will lock in a date for your session. You will have all the info you need to help you decide what to wear and to help make sure your session runs smoothly.

I will arrive at 10am on the day, have a quick look around and get started!

After your session

You will receive your online gallery approximately 2-4 weeks after your session. You can then select your favourite images to download instantly! If you would like to upgrade and receive all of your images then you can decide this once you see your gallery.

You will be given access to my online professional photo lab where you can purchase prints, frames, canvas and more!

How long does an in-home newborn session last?

When should I book a newborn session?

These sessions normally last around 1-2 hours. They are fully baby-led sessions so we will stop as many times as needed to feed, change and soothe the baby. If there are older siblings then I will capture them while you tend to baby so there is always a moment to capture!

I normally suggest to get in touch while you are still pregnant, 2-3 months before baby is due is best!

My ideal time to do these sessions is while your baby is 6-12 days old as this ensures a sleepy, curled up Bub and ensures you receive similar photos to what you see in my portfolio. I have photographed babies up to 6 weeks of age, and while baby is more awake we can still get beautiful shots.

When will I see my photos?

What should we wear?

I will do my best to get your gallery to you asap! This is normally anywhere from 2-4 weeks maximum depending on how busy I am at the time.

Once you are booked in with me I will send you my session prep guide. This details what to dress your baby in and how to co-ordinate the whole family! I normally suggest neutral tones and natural textures, as well a white or neutral bed cover. This will ensure timeless images. I will bring a couple of options for baby to wear in case you haven't found anything that fits.
