Newborn Photography

Start with the photographer’s portfolio which is where photographers post their best work. Do the images talk to your heart? If the answer is “yes” it is surely a very good start. Every artist has a unique style and spending time looking at the variety of newborn pictures on the portfolio section will give you a very good idea of the photographer’s taste, vision and specific style.

My photography style is simple, organic and timeless. I want you to be able to look at your images in many years time and still love them as you do today. I am not interested in cute headbands, baskets and distracting props as my aim is to capture your baby as perfect as he/she is and all those precious features which are going to change very soon. Take some time to look at my newborn photography portfolio. I hope you will feel the same emotions I feel when I capture these precious moments.

After you have looked into the portfolio, look for the Blog section on the photographer’s website. Whether the portfolio displays the photographer’s best work, the blog usually displays individual full photography sessions so you can have even a better idea of the variety of images you can expect from your photoshoot.

When reviewing a photographer’s Blog, look at the consistency of the work. Does it look like the photographer has a consistent style and approach? Do you like all the images you see within one single session? Do you like the siblings photos and the family photos too?Those are good questions to ask yourself while researching the right photographer for you.

The Blog is also very useful to see how much experience a photographer has with newborns and babies in general. Having many years of experience is surely a great advantage.

I have been a newborn photographer since 2010. In the last 12 years I have welcomed in the studio so many babies and I have captured the most precious memories for their families. Since my very first sessions, I have always had a strong interest in capturing authentic photographs, prioritising neutral colours and black and white images without using any props or accessories which can easily distract from the main focus which is always you and your baby. Have a look at my Newborn Blog to see more of my work with my little clients.

After having seen the portfolio and the blog section, make sure you visit the photographer’s social media. A photographer’s life in the studio can be really busy and it can happen that her/his Portfolio and Blog don’t get updated regularly. Social media are very quick and straight forward tools for photographer to showcase their work and often in the stories, photographers post their daily studio activity.

This will give you even a better insight into the photographer’s style, personality and way of working with clients.

Have a look at my instagram profile to see my very latest work! Make sure you follow me as well so you don’t loose any update!

Photographers differ no just for their style but also for their approach. Some photographers have a very posed and props oriented approach. Others have a baby led, natural and authentic approach to newborn photography. My approach surely falls in the second category.
My approach to newborn photography is fully baby led. This means that I aim to capture authentically your beauitful baby and, by doing so, I will never force the baby into any position nor I will create any pose which is not natural and comfortable for your baby. Instead your baby will always be my guide for the entire session and all the session will be built around his/her need.
As well as creating the most beautiful, timeless portraits of your baby and your family, I strive to make your photography session a great experience for you to remember and I am dedicated to create long term relationships with my clients and follow them in capturing their family memories and all their important milestones.

Reading all the customers reviews is very valuable to understand how other parents found their overall experience and will be a way to validate what has been discussed with the photographer. Make sure that the reviews are coming from a trusted source and are not just written on the website.
I am really thankful to the many parents that have dedicated time to leave google reviews for the photography session experience they had with me. They are not just a testimony of the passion and dedication i put into my work but also one of my biggest rewards.

After you have checked all these sources, remember that having a phone conversation with the photographer might help getting a better feeling about the person and most importantly ask any question you might have. At the bottom of my contact page you will find my contact details. If you would like to give me a call, please do!

Newborn photographers have different pricing schemes but mainly there are two common patterns: some photographers charge a session fee which does NOT include any picture or product. This might look very cheap but it is important to consider that that cost covers the session experience only and that digital images, prints or any other product are charged separately. Normally in this case the photographer will arrange a viewing /selling session for you to choose your images and buy them.

Other photographers offer predefined packages and therefore your don’t need to go back to the studio for your viewing / selling session. With this approach you know, from the start, the total spent with no surprises at the end.

My newborn photography pricing structure is very simple to understand, 100% transparent, outlining all the costs upfront. I offer simple packages which include the photography session and a specific number of digital files depending on the package of your choice. After your session, your images will be sent to your home address without the need to come back to the studio for a viewing/selling session.
