Sienna – newborn portraits

Little Sienna was born just before Christmas and it was lovely to see her joined by her big brother too.

I do love newborn and sibling portraits, always fun to do when they lie down together and snuggle up.

Sienna looked so cute in a little wrap and hairband, she wasn’t too keen on being asleep but after more milk and cuddles she finally fell asleep!

Parents portraits as well as siblings too are so special, even if you do not feel confident in front of the camera it’s worth doing so you have these memories to look back on!

If you are expecting a baby this year drop me a message to book in a newborn session.

Baby Jude and family

Little Jude was just a few days old when he came to the studio for his photo session. Born on Christmas day!

The whole family came including his three older siblings who were amazing for their photos (some bribery was needed!) I always photograph siblings first so they don’t get bored waiting for their turn!

Jude wasn’t keen to sleep but we still managed to get lots of lovely portraits of him and the family together.

Love his cute little face all bundled up in a wrap.

My newborn sessions take a couple of hours to complete, working around baby’s needs to plenty of time for milk breaks!

If you are expecting a baby this year and would like to book in let me know, I usually pencil in a date a week after your due date.

Baby Ethan – newborn photos

Baby Ethan was absolutely adorable and teeny tiny. He was a premature baby and so cute!

He was a little star for his photos, sleeping the majority of the time. His family brought in their pet dog too for some photos who was very well behaved for his photos. We managed with the help of some treats to get some lovely photos of them both together.

We also had time for photos with parents too, love these cute squishy newborn cuddle photos!

If you are expecting a baby soon, drop me a message to book in a newborn photo session.

Jacob – newborn portraits

Baby Jacob was just one week old when he came into my Wigton studio for his newborn portraits. His parents had come from just up the road in Aspatria.

Jacob was so chilled throughout the photo session, he was awake but happy to just lie on blankets and put up with wearing cute hats!

After photos of just baby on his own we got some photos of him with Mum and Dad too. I love to see how tiny little newborns are compared to their parent’s hands.

Adorable! Contact me to book in a photo session if you are due a new arrival soon!

Baby Maeve – newborn photographs

I love hearing from families about their new arrivals, Maeve’s parents opted to bring their dog along for the photo session which was a great idea. The photo session took place in my studio space in Fletchertown, Cumbria.

Bournville the dog was so well behaved for his photos and even decided to pose on the blankets after Maeve was changed! So lovely!

Maeve was a pleasure to photograph with lots of sleepy smiles and squishy cheeks. We involved the full family in photos too. Maeve’s parents brought along some teddies too which I love to incorporate into photographs.

Baby Luca

It was lovely to see Luca after I had photographed his Mum’s maternity portraits in Keswick. Iona looked amazing in her lakeside portraits.

Little Luca was absolutely adorable for his newborn portraits, he wasn’t too keen on sleeping but preferred to have plenty of milk!

Luca’s family brought along some personal teddies which was great to include in the photos too.

After we had tried lots of great hats on Luca it was time for some family photographs too. Snuggled into Mum and Dad he was at his most content.

I love to photograph newborn babies in Cumbria, its always lovely to capture these after maternity photographs too.

Eadie, newborn baby portraits

I had the pleasure of meeting little Eadie on Sunday in my studio near Wigton. Eadie was just two weeks old and such a cute little dot, she brought along her big brother and family too.

Eadie’s Mum brought in lots of lovely outfits and blankets/teddies for photo props. I love to incorporate heirloom blankets or handmade knitted items and teddies as this makes the photos so lovely and personal.

Unfortunately Eadie wasn’t too keen on sleeping, she would much rather be feeding! But that’s ok as my well renowned patience allowed me to capture some sleepy moments in between feeding. Please don’t worry if your baby does not sleep, we can still get plenty of lovely photos.

Big Brother Ethan was the best at posing, cuddling his little sister and being generally awesome! We also had time for family photos too.

My little studio space is cosy with lots of hot drinks and biscuits available to keep you going while your little ones are posing!

Baby Ella, newborn portraits Cumbria

Tiny Baby Ella was just over a week old when we did her newborn photographs in Cumbria. My studio is based near Wigton and ideally situated for people who live in Carlisle and nearby.

Ella came along with her older brother Noah and her family too. Noah was a fantastic big brother, holding her and giving her kisses. These sibling photos are always the cutest to do.

After Ella had a nice big feed she was ready for photos on her own. She looked so adorable in the little hats and headbands, even though she refused to sleep!

After some adorable photos of Ella we then did some photos of all the family together, lots of lovely moments of everyone as a family.

If you are expecting a baby shortly let me know if you would like to book in a baby photo session

Baby Rex

Baby Rex is a little beauty. We had fun at his newborn photo session in my studio in Fletchertown, Cumbria.

His parents brought along a little dinosaur outfit too which we managed to get him to pose in – so cute! It’s always lovely for families to bring along their own props or blankets if they mean something to them, for example a family heirloom.

Rex wasn’t too keen on sleeping for his photos, preferring to stay awake and pull faces at us!

It’s always lovely to see baby’s personality.

After photos of Rex on his own we had time for photos with Mum and Dad too with some lovely photos of his head in their hands and his feet – which were not as tiny as you would think!

Such a lovely cute little family.

If you are expecting a new arrival soon please drop me a message to book in a photo session.

Daisy – newborn portraits

I met Jasmine when she was around 36 weeks pregnant so it was a pleasure to capture her new arrival; Daisy when she was a few weeks old.

Daisy was a little star for her photos as soon as she was wrapped up and cosy. We found lots of cute hats and headbands for her to wear!

Her big sister was a superstar too, posing for her photos and holding Daisy, such a cute little bond.

I love the photos of baby Daisy with Mum and Dad too, at one point we even thought Daisy was eating Dad’s nose!

Such a cute little family, a pleasure to capture this moment in your lives!

Are you due a baby in 2024? Contact me to book in a date around your due date if you would like me to capture your new arrival!
