FAQs

This resonates with me so much. I get it.

We are all human, and we come with so many dimensions and emotions. Please tell me whatever is going on for you at any moment, because I want to make you feel more at ease so that I can get those images you’ll love. I’ll take my time to help alleviate any concerns and apprehensions you have by getting to know you and your family.  I have seen joy, sadness, hope and fears. It’s what makes us human, and it gives me so much pleasure to be the one to record your story and moments in a way that represents you best.

I know it’s easier said than done but please try not to worry about this. I’ve photographed hundreds of babies, so I’m experienced dealing with unsettled babies and still getting wonderful results. The truth is, it’s a rare occurrence. I find that trusting in my own experience and intuition helps me handle your baby the best way I know-how.

As a mum of two and an experienced newborn photographer, your baby’s safety is hugely important to me. So much so that I will never undertake any posing that I feel cannot be achieved safely. I wouldn’t feel right undertaking a pose that I wouldn’t happily do with my own baby.

In my 9 years as a home newborn photographer, I have photographed hundreds of babies in homes across the UK. I’ve attended training sessions and, I have advised and supported other newborn photographers around safety and posing too. I always advocate safe posing techniques within the industry.

Although most tricky poses can be achieved using composite techniques, I will occasionally tell parents that I’m not entirely comfortable undertaking certain poses regardless of other work they might have seen. I can’t comment on what other newborn photographers do, but what I can say is that I’ll always do what’s best for your baby.

I have completed the Basic disclosure check (formerly a CRB check), I am fully insured, and I am a PRO member of The Baby And Newborn Photographers Association. BANPAS strive to encourage high standards of customer service, quality images and safe practice across the profession of newborn photography.
