Welcoming a newborn into your life is one of the most precious and fleeting moments you’ll ever experience. Those tiny toes, little fingers, and sleepy yawns won’t stay small for long—capture them while they’re still so teeny.
As I only accept 10 babies per month, I book you in for your due date to ensure availability. Once my diary is full, bookings close, so it’s important to secure your session as soon as possible.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on what to expect when you book a newborn session with me.
Every baby is unique, and your session should reflect that. Before your session, we’ll have a chat about your preferences for colours, styling, and any sentimental items you’d love to incorporate. You’re welcome to bring a shawl or a special keepsake to include in the images.
I offer three carefully designed newborn packages to suit different styles:
• Petal Package – A beautifully natural session with baby posed on white.
• Bluebell & Lily Packages – These include props, more posed images, and the option for sibling and family portraits.
Choosing the right package ensures your session is tailored to the look and feel you love.
On the day of your session, I prepare the studio in advance to ensure everything is fresh, clean, and ready for your little one.
• Warm & Cosy: The studio is kept snug and warm, as babies love being toasty—it helps them stay relaxed and sleepy.
• Everything You Might Need: Forgot extra nappies or wipes? Don’t worry—I’ve got a fully stocked changing table with essentials on hand, just in case.
• A Private Room for Mum & Baby: If you prefer to breastfeed in private, I have a quiet room with a small couch, so you can take a moment with your baby whenever needed.
When you arrive, I’ll welcome you into the studio and guide you through what to expect during the session. From here, you can watch, relax, and enjoy the experience while I gently pose and photograph your baby.
Family & Sibling Portraits (Available in Bluebell & Lily packages only)
If you’ve chosen Bluebell or Lily, we begin with family and sibling photos while your baby is wrapped and snug. I’ll guide you through natural, relaxed poses that capture the beautiful bond between you and your little one.
After family pictures (if included in your package), the focus shifts to your baby alone. This is when I capture those sweet little details—tiny toes, little fingers, and peaceful expressions.
• Petal Package: A simple, natural session featuring baby on white.
• Bluebell & Lily Packages: More styled images, including props and carefully posed setups.
A week after your session, I’ll invite you back to the studio for a special viewing appointment. This is where you’ll see your baby’s beautiful images for the first time and select your favourites.
During this appointment, I’ll guide you through all the options available for displaying your baby’s images, including:
• Luxury albums
• Framed prints & wall art
• Mini books & print boxes
Once you’ve chosen your images, I will carefully edit them to perfection.
A few days after your viewing appointment, I will send you a link to your baby’s very own private webpage, where you can download your edited images and purchase prints from my professional lab at a reduced cost.
Once your albums, frames, and prints arrive, I’ll be in touch to arrange collection. If you’re local, I can deliver your artwork personally, or if it’s more convenient, I can post it directly to you.
Your baby will only be this tiny for such a short time, and these memories deserve to be cherished forever. If you’re looking for a newborn photographer in Central Scotland who will create beautiful, timeless images with care, I’d love to work with you!
Remember—spaces are limited to 10 babies per month, so book as early as possible to secure your session.
