NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY
The tiniest feet make the biggest footprints in our hearts
Welcome to newborn and baby photography in Rotherham. If you’re searching for a passionate and professional newborn photographer in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, you’ve come to the right place—I'm so glad you're here.
Firstly, congratulations on the arrival (or upcoming arrival) of your little one! This is such a special time, and I’d be honoured to be part of your journey by capturing your baby’s earliest days with a beautiful and relaxed newborn photoshoot in Rotherham. These sessions are some of my absolute favourites—there’s nothing quite like preserving those tiny fingers, delicate features, and first cuddles in timeless images you’ll treasure forever.
As a local baby photographer in Rotherham and a mum myself, I know how much thought goes into choosing the right person to photograph your baby. My goal is to make the entire experience calm, simple, and stress-free. I provide a cosy, baby-led studio environment based right here in Rotherham, where your little one’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities—so you can truly relax and enjoy the session.
Each newborn photography session is completely baby-led. Whether the photoshoot lasts an hour or three, we take everything at your baby’s pace. We’ll stop for feeding, nappy changes, or a cuddle whenever needed. There’s never any rush—just a gentle, thoughtful approach designed around your baby.
My style blends natural and gently posed baby photography. I love capturing those beautifully unposed moments—your baby sleeping peacefully, stretching, yawning, or snuggling into your arms. I also offer a handful of elegant posed images (if baby allows) to create a timeless collection of images that reflect the beauty of your little one.
Family connection is always welcome during your Rotherham newborn photoshoot. I encourage parents and siblings to join in, as these tender family moments are just as meaningful and worth capturing. These are the images that grow more precious with time.
If you're looking for a warm, experienced newborn photographer in Rotherham who creates heartfelt, natural images in a relaxed and welcoming space, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s start planning a photography session that captures the magic of this fleeting stage—right here in Rotherham.
WHEN IS BEST TO BOOK OUR NEWBORN SESSION?
It’s best to book your newborn photography session after your 20-week scan. When you book, I’ll pencil in your due date in my diary. Then, once your baby has arrived, simply send me a message and we’ll arrange the perfect date for your photoshoot.
The ideal time to photograph your newborn is within the first 3 weeks after birth, when babies are still very sleepy and naturally curled up—just like they were before they arrived. These early days are perfect for capturing those precious, tiny details and peaceful poses.
That said, if your baby is a little older, please don’t worry—it’s never too late to get beautiful photos. While older newborns might be more alert and a little less curled up, we can still capture gorgeous images of them awake, stretching, and maybe even sharing a cheeky little smile or two!
Because babies rarely arrive exactly on schedule, I only take a limited number of newborn bookings each week to allow for flexibility. This way, I can make sure I’m available whether your little one comes early or decides to keep you waiting a bit longer!
HOW LONG WILL THE SESSION TAKE?
Every baby is beautifully unique—some will snooze peacefully throughout the session, while others may need a few extra feeds, cuddles, and settling time. I recommend allowing up to 3 hours for your newborn photoshoot so we have plenty of time to keep things calm, relaxed, and completely baby-led.
IS THERE ANYTHING I NEED TO BRING?
I know it can feel a little overwhelming getting out of the house with a new baby, especially in those early days. For your newborn photoshoot, just bring your usual baby bag, along with extra feeds if you’re bottle feeding and a dummy if your baby uses one. Nappies, wipes, and a warm blanket are always handy to keep baby comfortable. I recommend dressing your baby in something easy to remove and changing them into their outfit once you arrive—I also have a lovely selection of newborn outfits available for you to use.
For parent and sibling images, soft neutral tones like white, cream, or beige work beautifully to keep the focus on your connection with baby. And don’t worry if you forget something—I have plenty of essentials at the studio. Most importantly, come relaxed—we’ll take everything at baby’s pace.
