Newborn

Welcome to my new-born portrait gallery and information page and thank you so much for dropping in!

​

Firstly, thank you so much for considering me to capture your older newborn portraits, I'd love to be your photographer. Let me take the opportunity to tell you a little about how I carry out my newborn sessions. I am entirely baby led, therefore I take as many breaks for feeds, cuddles and nappy changes as needed. You really can't hurry a newborn as they call all the shots. A normal newborn session takes 2 to 3 hours, but can be longer if the baby is cluster feeding and/or wanting comfort for example. I encourage sibling, parent and family images to be taken in the session. I don't plan any bookings after a newborn session so I won't be worrying about finishing up on time. If we need longer I stay longer.  

​

I pride myself on providing a relaxing and laid back atmosphere which really helps to settle your baby. I'm very experienced in newborn photography and the confidence all those years have provided mean your baby feels safe and secure. 

My new-born portrait studio is situated on Ferry Road in Edinburgh, it’s very easy to get to along the A902. Are you coming in a car? No problem! With over 250 free car parking spaces you’ll have no trouble finding a space. Likewise, if coming on the bus I have a bus stop right outside my door.

My building is equipped with lifts for your convenience and comfort you can bring your buggy right up to my studio with ease. When you come into the studio you’ll sees it is a large 90 square meter space so you have plenty of room to relax and watch me take the very best care of your precious new-born baby. I have a fully stocked fridge with cold drinks, individually packed snacks, teas and coffees. I’ll serve you a cappuccino and biscuits and you can just sit back and relax on my comfy sofa – you no doubt need a break! If you forget anything (it happens, I remember it well) then don’t panic. I have a baby changing station stocked with nappies, nappy sacks, breast pads etc. All you need to do is turn up with your baby and I’ll do the rest.

We can talk about styling prior to your session so rest assured I’ll guide you through every step of the way and ensure you walk away with images and products to suit your home and walls. I have a large stock of props and backdrops to choose from to make sure your artwork is just as you desire.

I’ve trained with the very best in the business including one of the worlds leading newborn photographers Kelly Brown amongst other UK leading trainers such as Claire Elliot for safety training meaning your baby is in very safe hands. 

​

Booking in could not be easier, just choose your preferred date (I recommend 10 days after due date) if your baby arrives late or early, you can change the date yourself to suit! The booking form is at the bottom of this page. 

I’ll take the very best care of you in my studio and I’m sure you’ll have a great time, but don’t take my word for it….

Clare did my sons photos the other day. She is so professional and knows how to capture amazing pictures. Clare didn’t rush and was very calm which made my son calm during the photos which enabled us to capture beautiful pictures. I love all the pictures and it is so hard to choose a favourite as I love them all equally. Would recommend Clare to anyone who is looking for a newborn baby shoot. 10+ star rating from us
