Newborn & Baby Photoshoots in Worcestershire
WHERE LOVE GROWS: CAPTURING PRECIOUS MOMENTS IN YOUR HOME
Those first days, weeks, and months with your baby are nothing short of magic. Your heart is overflowing with joy, wonder, and an endless amount of love. These moments are too precious not to remember forever. Let me step in and capture this magical yet fleeting time. My beautiful and heartfelt photographs will bring you back to the feeling of their tiny fingers curled around yours, their wrinkly tiny feet, and the way they fit so perfectly in your arms.
But this in-home baby and family photoshoot is more than that. It will allow you to be present here and now, to bond as a family. To stop for a moment so you can take a look into each other's eyes and at the perfect little human you created.
This is a relaxed, lifestyle family photoshoot in Worcester where we won't be using any unnecessary items or putting a baby into unnatural positions. Instead I will ask you to wear comfortable clothes and take your socks off. I will ask you to hold and kiss your baby the way you would do if I wasn't there.
We will not rush. Every session with me lasts up to two hours so there is time for cuddling, feeding, nappy changing and a glass of water.
"She made us feel so assured and at ease. The photos were all shot naturally, allowing us to care for our baby in the comfort of our own home.
She kept things very relaxed and the smiles (and spit ups) were all real!"

TESTIMONIALS
Where do newborn and older baby photoshoots take place?
We can capture beautiful photos of your baby in the comfort of your home, outdoors, or both! It all depends on you...
Most newborn and parents photoshoots take place at home - your safe and comfortable space. If you prefer a relaxed pace with time for outfit changes (including some naked bum shots!), feeding breaks, and attention to little details, an at-home newborn session is ideal. Remember that I focus on the people, not the background, so it doesn't matter how your house looks. To take wonderful photographs all I need is a bed and a window. So please don't stress about 'the mess' or moving anything out the way before I arrive. It is a common worry and I wrote a blog post about why you don't need to be concerned about it:)
For your next family photoshoot, you’re welcome to choose a stunning outdoor location to keep things unique and exciting. Check out my outdoor photoshoots here!
Another option is a 'split session,' which combines both indoor and outdoor settings. It requires a bit more planning but it can be a truly special experience for the whole family. It works well especially if you have older children as a little bit of time outdoors can be a fantastic opportunity to let them explore and play in nature, capturing their natural energy and joy.
If you’re outdoorsy parents, why not include a scenic walk or even bring your dog along? Perhaps you have a lovely garden you’re proud of or live on a farm - both can provide a perfect and personal backdrop. Or perhaps you live right next to a wild flower meadow and the weather is just wonderful to go out?
Oh, and I don’t charge extra for split sessions if the outdoor location is within 5 miles of your home.

When to have your home baby photoshoot.
It's completely up to you when you choose to have your photo shoot with your baby! Every stage brings something uniquely beautiful, whether it's capturing their sleepy newborn poses or their curious, wide-eyed expressions, first smiles or ...first steps!
During the first two weeks babies are still curled up & sleep most of the time. I can photograph when they sleep peacefully in your arms, their tiny details. As babies reach 5-6 weeks, they become more active and expressive. During this time, your precious little one may start to smile and look at you with interest. You'll also feel more confident as parents at that time (I'm a mum - I know!). They may not sleep at all during the session and cry a bit more.
Maybe you wait until your baby is 10 or even 15 weeks old! By then, they may be starting to giggle, show more personality, or lift their head during tummy time. There will be less sitting still then for sure!
Or...maybe you wish to capture your child's cheeky personality and how playful he or she is? Maybe they are crawling or even taking first steps?
When I come into your home, I'll make it a relaxing and fun experience. Think of me as a mum-friend who's stopping by for a cup of tea! My goal is to create an atmosphere where you and your baby feel at ease, allowing me to photograph genuine, beautiful moments that reflect the warmth and love of your family.
I've photographed babies as young as 6 days and as old as 9 months during home sessions. So, if you didn’t have a photoshoot when your daughter or son was a tiny baby, don’t worry - you haven’t missed your opportunity. It’s never too late! There’s no perfect window or a “best” or “worst” time for capturing these memories. Whenever you decide to do it, it will be special in its own unique way.
Newborn photoshoot with an older sibling.
A home newborn photoshoot with an older sibling captures your family exactly as it is right now — growing, adjusting, and figuring it all out together. And the beauty is, we don't need to change a thing.
Older siblings bring energy, movement, and opinions - sometimes all within 30 seconds. They might want to cuddle the baby, then run off for snacks, then come back again. That's not a problem. That's the whole point.
Because this isn't about control, it's about connection.
The way your toddler looks at their new brother or sister. Tiny hands touching tiny feet. Laughter, unpredictability, and moments that simply can't be staged. These are the ones worth keeping.
I don't pose your children or expect them to perform. Instead, I gently guide the moment encouraging you to stay close, interact, and simply be together. With older siblings, I follow their energy, take breaks when needed, and change direction if something isn't working. Nothing is forced.
And somehow, in the middle of what feels like chaos, the most beautiful moments happen.
Being at home makes all the difference. Your toddler is in their own space, surrounded by familiar toys and comforts — there's no pressure to behave differently. Your newborn is exactly where they belong: in your arms, in your home.
When children feel safe, they show you who they really are. That's what I'm here to photograph.
Common worries about newborn photoshoots.
Almost every mum I photograph tells me she is worried about something before I arrive. I understand completely, because I felt exactly the same. These are the worries I hear most often, and what I would say to a friend sitting across from me with a cup of tea.
What if my baby cries during the session?
Then we will comfort them, and that is absolutely fine. Crying is part of life with a newborn, and I will never ask you to hide it or fix it for the camera. Every session lasts up to two hours, so there is plenty of time for cuddles, soothing and a calm moment before we carry on. Babies often become more awake and a little more vocal at around five or six weeks, and that is completely normal too. I never handle or pose your baby. You are the one holding them, just as you would on any other day.
What if my baby needs a feed in the middle of the shoot?
Then you feed them. Breast or bottle, wherever you feel most comfortable, and for as long as they need. Feeding breaks, nappy changes and a glass of water are all part of the session, and I will never rush you. We will work around your baby's rhythm rather than the other way round. If you would like me to photograph a feed, I would be honoured to, but only if it feels right for you.
What if my older child will not cooperate?
Even well fed and rested children can cry, hide or refuse to smile, and that is simply part of being little. Some children need more time than others to get used to me or the camera. I will never ask them to smile, and I would gently suggest you do not either. Let them be children. I follow their energy, take breaks when needed and change direction if something is not working. Being in their own home, with their own toys, helps enormously. Some sessions are more challenging than others, but I will always find the calm moments and the real expressions. They are always there.
What if I feel tired or I am not sure how I look?
You are in the middle of the newborn days, so of course you are tired. I ask you to wear something comfortable, brush your hair and take your socks off, and that is all. I will send you a guide before the session explaining how to prepare and what not to stress about, and the mess in the background does not matter to me. I focus on the people, not the house.
If there is a worry I have not mentioned here, please send me a message. I am always happy to talk it through, mum to mum.
What to wear to your home newborn photoshoot in Worcester.
Clothing choices play a huge role in the overall feel and tone of your photos. The goal is simple: your outfits should complement the moment, not distract from it. Because these photos are about you, your baby, and the love in the room.
Keep it simple. Neutral tones work beautifully — tans, whites, creams, greys, soft greens, blues and pinks. Denim and burgundy work well too. Aim for a blend of two or three complementary colours across the whole family. Mum, start with your outfit first and build everyone else’s around it.
When you book, you’ll receive a full style guide packed with dos and don’ts, tips and real examples from other families. I’ll also be on WhatsApp if you want to run anything by me before the day. You don’t need to have it all figured out before you get in touch. That’s part of what I’m here for.
And one more thing! you don’t need to change your style or suddenly buy a new duvet cover. If you love colour and dark shades, keep it that way. You can absolutely have incredible photos in your home exactly as it is. Just follow the tips in my guide and it will all come together perfectly.
How home baby & parents photo sessions in Worcester work.
If you already have an idea of when and where you’d like your session, get in touch using my quick online form, send an email, a text, or just give me a call. If you'd like, we can also schedule a phone or video chat so I can get to know you better and hear all about your hopes for the session.
You'll receives a guide where I explain what to expect, how to get ready before I arrive (including what not to stress about!), and tips on what to wear. I want you to feel completely at ease - and for your photos to look visually stunning too! I've got you:)
On the day of your in-home newborn session, all you need to do is open the door with a smile and soak in the time with your family. I’ll gently guide you while capturing stunning photos (and videos!) during a calm, relaxed time together. Trust a fellow mum and an experienced Worcester photographer - you’re in safe hands. :)
It's going to be beautiful, natural and easier than you imagined.

Free group breastfeeding photoshoot every July.
In July 2024 and 2025, I organised a special event - a group breastfeeding photoshoot. They took place at National Trust Croome Court and Spetchley Park Gardens, timed for Breastfeeding Awareness Week. It was a beautiful and moving day, bringing together 15 mums and their children to celebrate the beauty, joy, and naturalness of breastfeeding. But it wasn’t just about the photos; it was a day of connection, empowerment, and sharing. We laughed, cried, hugged, and shared our stories.
