Timeless Memories

Preserving the Magic of Those Early Days

From tiny details and sleepy cuddles to those first precious expressions, newborn sessions capture the quiet magic of welcoming your little one. Each session is relaxed, gentle and thoughtfully styled, creating natural, timeless imagery that celebrates your baby and the beautiful beginning of your journey together.

The Experience

Every session includes:

  • Beautiful at-home or outdoor location

  • 1 hour 30 minute session (including set-up)

  • Posing guidance throughout, if needed

  • Private online gallery delivered in 2 weeks

  • 30+ edited images to choose from

  • 15 digital images to keep and the option to add more
    (at an additional cost)

You can book your session anytime during pregnancy. We’ll pencil in your expected due date, with the final session date confirmed once your little one arrives. I recommend securing your date as early as possible, as sessions can fill up quickly and booking ahead gives you the best chance of getting your preferred date and time.

Perfect Locations for Your Session

At Home
Outdoor

At-home newborn sessions are gentle, relaxed and unhurried, allowing you to settle into those precious first days with your little one in the comfort of your own home. Your surroundings become a beautiful, personal backdrop for capturing this fleeting chapter.

From sleepy cuddles and tiny details to those quiet moments together, we’ll focus on the connection and tenderness that make these early days so special. There’s no need for a perfectly styled home — the familiar details of your space are what make your photographs feel truly personal and authentic.

Whether it’s a favourite park, a quiet woodland, the beach or somewhere special to you, outdoor newborn sessions offer a relaxed and natural setting to capture these precious early days. We’ll take our time, allowing plenty of space for cuddles, feeds, little explorations and moments of connection.

With soft natural light and the beauty of the outdoors as our backdrop, we’ll create timeless images that capture your newborn’s tiny details, your connection as a family and the magic of this fleeting chapter.

”We couldn’t recommend Mel highly enough! She captured both our maternity photos on the beach and our newborn photos in the comfort of our own home, and we absolutely love every single one.

Mel was so professional and friendly, and she immediately put me at ease despite feeling quite uncomfortable and awkward in front of the camera. She made the whole experience feel so relaxed and natural.

Having the option of both home and location shoots is perfect, and we loved that she was able to capture such special moments for us in two completely different settings. We will treasure these photos forever and I already know Mel will be our go-to photographer for many more special moments and events in the future. We honestly couldn’t recommend her enough!”
