Neworn photography

Those first few weeks with your baby are a whirlwind! Magical, exhausting, and gone in the blink of an eye. You want to slow it down, to hold on to every precious tiny detail — the soft skin, sleepy stretches, and tender moments that fill your home with new love. That’s where I come in.

Every session is thoughtfully tailored to your family and I guide you every step of the way. I photograph newborns with a gentle, intuitive approach — in the comfort of your own home, where you can relax and simply be together. No cheesy props. No forced poses. No pressure. Just honest, heartfelt photography that captures the beauty, wonder and true connection of these fleeting days.

The result? Natural, beautiful images that feel unmistakably yours – the kind you’ll be proud to display. Not just files lost on a hard drive, but timeless artwork, carefully crafted to live in your home and be treasured for generations to come.

Kind Words From My Clients

    We have been to Jodi twice now to capture some truly beautiful pictures of our family. We’ve had such a wonderful experience both times and will certainly return to capture some more beautiful memories together.

    Alex

    Jodi is an amazing photographer – we’ve used her for over 4 years now capturing beautiful photos / memories of our two children . We love how natural and timeless the photographs are and her studio is a really inviting , warm and comfortable environment. Jodi really ensures you get a variety of lovely shots and is very calm and patient especially when the little ones are being fussy.

    Rebecca

    Jodi is absolutely fabulous. Her photographs always provide us such precious memories and she’s just wonderful with the girls making sure everything is relaxed and fun to capture the best moments!

    Grace

    We’ve used Jodi multiple times now to capture special moments as our family has grown – her style of photography is beautiful and timeless. The second you step in the studio you’re at ease, and the effort she puts in to securing those perfect shots is nothing short of super human. Jodi thank you so much for helping create our beautiful photographs – they are a treasure.

    Jennifer

    The images we received from Jodi absolutely surpassed our expectations – they were absolutely perfect. I was a little concerned as we had a very fussy baby on the day of the shoot, Jodi was patient with him and worked her magic by getting him relaxed and comfortable for the pictures. The studio is a lovely environment and I felt comfortable breastfeeding my new baby whilst there. If you’re thinking of booking a shoot I would do it in a heartbeat because the images and whole experience are invaluable. Thank you so much!

    Charlotte

    I’ve used Jodi for both my sons 1st birthday shoots and she’s amazing. Extremely patient and understanding when my boys were being a bit fussy and clingy. The photo’s are so classic and timeless. Her cabin is beautiful and Jodi made us all feel so welcome. Would definitely recommend and will be back for future shoots.

    Ellen

    We have used Jodi for a few family shoots now and we are always thrilled with the outcome! How she manages to capture such wonderful smiles from a very fidgety toddler we will never know! She also has a gift of sending a baby to sleep, she has done this amazingly well with both our children. We are always made to feel comfortable in her studio and treated so warmly and kindly. It is always an enjoyable experience and we would recommend Jodi to our friends and family every time.

    Jamie

    Would definitely recommend Jodi!
    Such a lovely, friendly and professional person. The photos she takes are utterly beautiful. She even strives to capture the tiniest of details. If you are looking for a newborn, children or family photographer, I wouldn’t hesitate to book in.

    I am so thrilled I booked my nephews a photoshoot with Jodi for their first birthday celebrations! Jodi was amazing at making everyone feel relaxed and created an environment where their true characters could shine. She captured beautifully memories that we will cherish forever. Thank you Jodi!

    Paige

    Couldn’t recommend Jodi enough! I have been for 2 maternity shoots now & have a newborn shoot booked in for when my little one arrives. She made me and my partner feel so welcome and comfortable. The studio is unreal, so cosy and just perfect. I absolutely can’t wait to be back & will also be booking in for a christmas session! The photos she takes are perfect, I couldn’t ask for anyone better, they’re so natural and lovely. Thank you!

The Process

Bespoke. Honest. Effortless.

You’ve got enough on your plate. That’s why I guide you every step of the way — so you can simply enjoy the experience and walk away with beautiful, meaningful photographs and finished artwork you love, fully taken care of. Here’s how it works:

  • Preparation: Tailored to You

    Once you enquire, we schedule a short chat to explore your vision, answer any questions, and plan a session that truly reflects your family. Your date is secured with a simple booking fee, and then you’ll receive my Preparation & Style Guide, so you feel confident, calm and ready to go.

  • The Session: Relaxed & Fun

    Whether we’re outdoors in nature or at home in your cosy space, I gently guide you throughout for a fun, relaxed and personalised experience. Sessions typically last 1-2 hours. No stiff poses or forced cheesy smiles, simply natural moments and beautiful, honest images that feel like you.

  • Viewing & Ordering: Fully Guided

    After carefully editing your best images, we meet (usually 2–3 weeks later) for your personal Viewing & Ordering Appointment — the exciting part! I guide you through selecting your favourites and pairing them with the perfect products for your home. Your order is placed and paid for at this stage.

  • Delivery: Artwork You’ll Love

    Your finished artwork is professionally produced and personally delivered, ready to enjoy from the moment it arrives. No unfinished projects on your to-do list, or files lost on your computer — just beautiful printed products, carefully created to be loved by your family for generations.

Don’t wait for “perfect” – these are the days to remember.

Newborn photography

Life with your newborn can be a beautiful blur. And while traditional newborn photographers say you need to capture them in the first two weeks, the truth is there’s no deadline. Whether your baby is days or months old, every stage is full of tiny details and tender moments you’ll want to remember. Just don’t wait for “perfect”. This season, in all its exhausting and beautiful chaos, is over far too quickly. You’ll never regret capturing it. Your future self – and your child – will be so grateful you did.

Frequently asked questions

Your baby will only ever be this little once. And one day, these photographs will be amongst your most treasured possessions – for you, and for them.
As a newborn photographer, it’s such an honour to capture your growing family during this precious, fleeting chapter.

Below, I’ve answered some of the most common questions to help you feel fully prepared for your session.

Still got questions?

If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, I’m always happy to chat. Every family is unique and your session will be too. Get in touch and let’s start planning yours!

Let's start planning your session!
  • When should I book?

    The truth is: there’s no “perfect” window. While many photographers suggest scheduling newborn sessions within the first two weeks, my natural, relaxed approach allows for more flexibility. Whether your baby is just a few days old or several weeks (even up to 8-12 weeks), it’s all worth capturing – sleepy stretches, tiny features, first expressions, and those tender moments as you settle into life together.

    If you’d like those super sleepy images though, it’s best when your baby is less than two weeks old. In this case, please get in touch well in advance of your due date to secure your session. We’ll set a provisional date, and adjust if needed once baby arrives. If you prefer to wait until baby is a little older, that’s absolutely fine too. Simply get in touch as soon as you’re ready to secure your session.

  • Where does the photo session take place?

    Your session will take place in the comfort of your own home, where you and your baby feel most relaxed. In the warmer months, we may also explore an outdoor option, if you wish.

    When I arrive, I’ll spend a few minutes finding the most beautiful natural light in your home, often using different rooms to create variety. No elaborate backdrops or studio setups, just your family, your space, and the honest beauty of life at home together.

  • How long will the photo session last?

    Every baby is different, so your session will move entirely at your baby’s pace. On average, newborn sessions take up to 2 hours, allowing plenty of time for feeding, changing, soothing, or simply pausing for a break.

    There’s no pressure and no rush. Your newborn photography experience is calm, flexible, and completely baby-led, so you can relax and enjoy the process.

  • How should I prepare my baby for the photo session?

    If possible, giving your baby a feed and a warm bath before I arrive can help them settle into a peaceful, sleepy state. Particularly if you want to capture those early days when they are extra teeny tiny. But don’t worry if that doesn’t go to plan – newborns are wonderfully unpredictable, and we’ll work around whatever your baby needs on the day.

    If you have any special items you’d like included (a cherished blanket, toy, or heirloom), have them ready to hand.

    You won’t need to worry about props, outfits, or elaborate setups – your baby is perfect exactly as they are. My focus is on capturing your baby’s natural beauty, tiny details, and your family’s connection in an honest, elegant style you’ll always recognise as your own.

  • Will parents and siblings be included?

    Absolutely. This isn’t just about your baby, it’s about your whole family.

    I always encourage parents to be in the photographs, even if you’re feeling a little camera-shy in those early postpartum days. I promise, years from now, you’ll be so grateful to have these images with your baby in your arms.

    Siblings are always involved in the session too. Newborn sessions often feel more like a relaxed family session, capturing real moments of connection with your newest little addition.

    To help you feel confident in front of the camera, I’ll provide simple wardrobe tips ahead of time, focusing on natural, muted tones that photograph beautifully and won’t date. You’ll also receive a full preparation guide to take the guesswork out of what to wear and how to prepare.

  • How will we view our photos?

    Once your session is complete, I’ll carefully select and edit the best images with great attention to detail and artistic care.

    Within three weeks, we’ll schedule your viewing and ordering appointment, where you can see your finished images and choose your favourites. I’ll guide you through options for prints, wall art, and other products, carefully curated to display beautifully in your home and designed to last for generations.
