Pure & Simple - Newborn Mini Session

My newborn mini sessions are designed with smaller budgets in mind, take less time and are great for those who want something more simple than a full newborn session. Parent and sibling images are NOT included, this smaller session is designed for baby only and is all about them.

Baby will be dressed in or wrapped in white on a white background. I may use props or accessories but don’t always as these sessions are completely baby led and less posed. It really doesn’t matter if baby is sleepy or awake during our time together, I take their lead and go with the flow always.

Unlike full newborn sessions these can be done up until baby is 8 weeks old. As babies get older they realise they can and will move out of poses and change positions while unwrapped. The beauty of these sessions is the baby led posing where I let them do their own thing and just capture. I do recommend earlier the better for newborn sessions however these can also be scheduled at a later date if required.

Don’t miss out on capturing them in those early days because of time or budget. My sessions are done from the comfort of your own home. I’m from Hamilton however do sessions all over Lanarkshire.

Newborn Mini Sessions cost £155 and include 5 digital images. Additional images can also be purchased after your session.

All Wrapped Up - Newborn Mini Session

My newborn mini sessions are designed with smaller budgets in mind, take less time and are great for those who want something more simple than a full newborn session. Parent or sibling images are NOT included, this smaller session is all about baby only.

If you hadn’t guessed from the name, baby will be wrapped up nice and cosy for your session. Your choice of colour will be implemented throughout with the use of wraps, props, backdrops and accessories. Let me know if you have anything in particular in mind. Unlike full newborn sessions these can be done up until baby is 8 weeks old. As babies get older they realise they can and will move out of poses and change positions while unwrapped. I do recommend earlier however due to baby being all wrapped up for these means they can also be scheduled at a later date if required.

Don’t miss out on capturing them in those early days because of time or budget.

Newborn Mini Sessions cost £155 and include 5 digital images. Additional images can also be purchased after your session.

The importance of prints (Part 1)

In this digital age that we live in, it’s even more important than in the past to print the images that we take. This is simply because we just aren’t doing so as a society. They are saved on our phones, backed up to the cloud, posted on social media... but more often than not they can sometimes just end up lost forever. If you want to preserve something, you have to print it!

Your memories shouldn’t have to die when your phone does. Online storage is NOT as safe as its made out to be. Technology is constantly changing. A USB may end up like a floppy disk, Apple already stopped making CD drives. Who really knows if we will have access to all of these stored digital images years from now.

When your grandchildren or great grandchildren go searching for photos, what will they find? A broken USB, a link to an expired online gallery? Or beautiful prints and products that they can hold in their hands and admire? Just remember in years to come when we celebrate the people we love, you can’t frame a thumb drive.

Top 5 reasons to PRINT

  1. While going through your images on a screen can still be fun its nothing like actually holding those prints in your hands. Images when printed invoke so much more emotion and makes your memories that bit more tangible.

  2. There is absolutely no guarantee that the technologies of tomorrow will be able to read the photos we take/store digitally today. Your children and their children will thank you for printing.

  3. Printed photos on display in your home help boost your child’s sense of identity and makes them feel more valued. Seeing them every day are great reminders, where as what do you think they think about when they walk past a USB drive?

  4. Phones can be lost, laptops can be broken, online storage websites can go out of business, USB’s malfunction and gallery links don’t last forever. If you want to preserve it, print it.

    5. The quality of prints has came a long long way. It is now easier than ever before to order online, create albums, order prints and wonderful products to cherish forever. I order all of my prints and products from a dedicated photographic lab for professional photographers to ensure you receive long lasting quality items from me.

“Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.” - Dorothea Lange

Motherhood

Mums, you’re always right there. Doing the night feeds, celebrating milestones, comforting & helping your little ones explore this big world. But how often do you actually get in the picture vs how often is it you taking the pictures of your little ones as they grow?

This year I’m offering multiple styles of motherhood sessions to capture the bond between you and your little loves, because I want you to have images that you can cherish forever! One day when your kids are all grown up they are going to look for images of you together. Give them something great to find!

*These are limited edition sessions. Although they can be booked for any date/season in 2019 I am only taking bookings for them up until April 1st. Be sure to get in touch before this date if interested in booking a session with me to capture wonderful memories with your little ones.

Juliana's summer maternity session

What a beautiful day we had in Scotland for Juliana's summer maternity session! I've been documenting Juliana's pregnancy since January and had so much fun taking it outdoors for the summer and using natural landscapes and lighting to create these wonderful memories to cherish before baby is born. I cannot wait to meet and capture sweet Antonella next month!

A grand adventure is about to begin.
