Home changes throughout your life, which is why in-home newborn photography sessions create such powerful memories. It’s the place where your most nostalgic childhood memories are created. It’s the space you couldn’t wait to leave as a teen seeking adventure. It’s where you brewed your first cup of tea from your new kettle, felt like a real grown-up, and maybe where you and your partner nurtured your first plant—the ‘first baby.’ Now, home takes on a new meaning: it’s where you welcome your own baby and create the sanctuary you always dreamed of.
Home is more than a location. It’s your baby’s first safe space, their world. So why capture their arrival anywhere else but home? As a newborn photographer serving London and Surrey, I believe there’s no better place to tell the story of your baby’s first moments than within the warmth and comfort of your own home.
Why in-home newborn photography is better than a studio session
In-home newborn photography is about more than beautiful images. It’s about capturing the real, unfiltered moments of your baby’s first days in the place that matters most—your home. When you choose an in-home session, you’re choosing the most meaningful backdrop: the space where your baby will bond with you, grow, and feel secure.
Unlike a sterile, unfamiliar studio, your home is filled with the warmth and personal touches that make your family’s story unique. No need to rush out the door or feel pressured to pose in an artificial setting. You can simply relax, allowing the magic of those early newborn moments to unfold naturally. This comfort results in authentic images that tell your baby’s story in the most genuine way possible.










How in-home newborn sessions create timeless family heirlooms
In-home newborn photography is not just about taking pictures—it’s about documenting the newest chapter of your family’s journey. Imagine looking back at these images 10, 20, or even 50 years from now. You’ll remember the nursery you lovingly prepared, the couch where you snuggled your newborn, and the light filtering through your living room window on those quiet mornings.
These personal details make your family’s story special. By capturing your family in your home, we create heirlooms that future generations will treasure, allowing your baby to one day share these moments with their own children and grandchildren.
What to expect during your in-home newborn photography session
When I arrive for your in-home newborn session, I want you to feel as though I’m there to capture your day as it naturally unfolds. There’s no rush, no pressure. My approach is slow and intentional, allowing you to savour the tender moments—whether it’s the way your baby’s tiny hand wraps around your finger or the sound of their soft coos as they rest in your arms.
I tailor every session to reflect your family’s unique story. If you have special heirlooms, like a blanket knitted by a loved one or a favourite storybook, I love including these personal touches in your photos. These are the small details that will one day be passed down with the images, becoming part of your family’s history.







Celebrating parenthood during your newborn session
Your newborn session isn’t just about your baby; it’s about celebrating you as parents, too. Parenthood can feel like a whirlwind, but this is your moment to pause and reflect on the beautiful journey you’re on. The quiet moments between you and your partner, the loving glances, the gentle touches—these are the moments that show the strength and love that hold your family together.
I want your in-home newborn session to be about more than just pictures—it’s about creating memories that will stand the test of time.
