Finnlee, newborn portraits, Egremont

It was lovely to meet little Finnlee at home for his newborn photo session. He was so good for his photos, we managed to get photos of him in some lovely hats.

I love to get photos of kids with their toys too as well as its nice to compare the sizes of a tiny baby with a cuddly toy. Finnlee’s elephant was a lovely toy to use as well.

Its good to get photos of everyone together too. So sweet to get portraits of you cuddling your munchkins!

Newborn photo sessions can either be done in the studio in Fletchertown or in the comfort of your own home.

Baby Rory, newborn portraits in Fletchertown

I love an adorable squishy newborn photo session. Tiny little Rory was so well behaved for his photos, we had ample opportunity for cute hats! I always think its a good idea for you to bring along a special cuddly toy to a newborn photo session as it means we can get photos of baby cuddling the toy and I love the size comparison of a tiny newborn to a teddy! I loved little Rory’s fox cuddly toy.

His big brother was so good for his photos too, holding him and giving him lots of kisses. So cute! We also had time for some special family portraits too.

The session was done in my studio in Fletchertown, with lots of snuggly props and blankets for baby and space to run around for older brothers!

Contact me to book in a newborn photo session. It is best done up to two weeks after baby arrives but can be done later if you don’t get a chance to book it in sooner.

Henry & Freddie – newborn portraits

I love to watch families grow, having photographed Laura & Matthew’s wedding 5 years ago I have photographed Freddie throughout his first year and now at 3 he has become a big brother!

Henry is now two weeks old and the most chilled out newborn I have ever met! He enjoyed curling up in my basket and rocked the same hat we used on Freddie’s newborn photo shoot.

Afterwards we had time for some family portraits and some photographs of all the cousins together too, easier said than done when they are all different ages!

Such a lovely little family 🙂 xx

Amman, Lake District baby portraits

I love photographing babies at all different ages, Amman is 10 weeks old and a little bruiser! He was so keen to sit up and get moving that he didn’t want to lie down!

We managed to get some lovely smiles when he decided that he liked my silly voices!

It was nice to get some photos of him and his Mum too – its always nice to have some special cuddling portraits done! Although to be fair I think he preferred all attention to be on him!

Please contact me if you would like to book onto any of my portrait sessions – they make great Mother’s Day gifts! xx

Nova

What a beautiful name for a baby – little Nova! She is so adorable, very alert and strong already at 3 weeks old.

She was a little angel for her photos – even smiling for us! Her big brothers Riley and Bailey were on hand for cuddles and kisses too. We also had time for some family photos too, these are always great to do – to see a family grow and its clear Nova will be very loved and looked after by her big brothers!

I photograph newborn sessions in the comfort of your own home, I find baby is much more comfortable and you will feel much more relaxed than being in a studio environment.

Contact me to book in a newborn photo session. These are usually best in the first two weeks of baby being born but they can be done after that – Nova is proof that even a little older they are much more aware and even smiling in some cases!

Louisa, newborn photographer Carlisle

Louisa is the cutest little baby for photographing. She was very aware of the camera and you could almost imagine she was posing at one point!

I love accessorizing with headbands and hats and how cute does she look with the rabbit hat next to her cuddly rabbit! After photos of baby on their own I like to photograph baby with parents too. I love to keep these portraits fairly natural with lots of cuddles, kisses and family snuggles. We even managed to get a few photos in Louisa’s nursery too.

Photos to treasure as your little one gets older.

Contact me to book in a photo session for your baby – they don’t have to be a tiny newborn- babies can be photographed at all different ages.

Ethan – Autumnal family portraits – Carlisle

As a newborn and family photographer based in the lovely Lake District I really enjoy doing family portraits outdoors rather than in a studio – the kids can run free and the colours as the seasons changes are always amazing.

Autumnal portraits are a personal favourite of mine. I last saw Ethan when he was 6 months old so it was fab to see him again as a fully fledged toddler! We had some great fun throwing leaves around and peeping around trees. He has the most adorable smile!

Contact me to find out how to book in your own family photo session in the beautiful Lake District!

Jemimah & Noah – Autumn family photos

Its a pleasure photographing families in the Lake District and in Sheffield too. I first met Jemimah as a newborn for her photo shoot so its lovely to see her and her brother as school aged kids now!

Such a great family – the leaf throwing was very enthusiastic and they even did some skipping too!

The portraits were taken in Sheffield in Ecclesall Woods. I am running photo sessions throughout the year outdoors both in the beautiful Lake District where I am based and also in Sheffield too.

Let me know if you would like to know when my next outdoor family sessions take place! It would be great to hear your favourite outdoor locations for walks with your family.

Betsy – newborn photography in Sheffield

I love revisiting families as they grow for photographs so it was great to see the McPhail family again having photographed their wedding and Milo when he was younger. New baby Betsy is adorable although keener to be in Mum’s arms than on her own!

Her big brother Milo was a superstar – so gentle with his little sister holding her hand and kissing her on the head – very cute!

Contact me to book in a newborn session – these can be booked before baby arrives so we have photos of your baby when they are nice and tiny!

Workington newborn photographer – Noah & Teddy

Ahh – I do love a newborn photo session – Noah was a fan of cuddles not necessarily sleeping but we managed to get a few photos of him – he even looked like he was smiling at us in the beginning!

His big brother Teddy meanwhile was having a great time playing with his toys – love the wigwam!

Its always interesting photographing siblings together – love how Teddy is looking at his baby brother – I’m sure they will be so close growing up. – Cute!
