SUFFOLK BABY PHOTOGRAPHER
I have been a Baby Photographer at my Suffolk studio for 11 years now and recently I was awarded the ‘Image of the Year Award’ in the ‘Baby’s and Toddlers’ Category with the Guild of Photographers which was a personal and professional highlight.
These sessions suit Babies of 4 months to 18 months. (If you are more interested in booking a Newborn shoot, please click here to access my Newborn Photography page).
At 4 months old, Babies are often full of smiles, may be happy on their tummy and their favourite thing is to interact with Mum or Dad so it’s a lovely age to capture.
At 6 to 7 months old, they are often sitting up unaided and we can get a much larger variety of images at this age.
From 9 months plus, Babies can start crawling or walking so again that is a lovely milestone to capture.

£99
To book any of the photoshoots below, a retainer of £99 is charged upfront. This is then deducted from whichever collection you choose to buy.
If you would prefer to buy a piece of Wall Art instead of a collection, then the £99 is not deducted from whatever product you buy, and there is a minimum order of £299.
Hair and Makeup Artist is available on request at £55 for hair or makeup or £110 for both.
At the end of the photoshoot, we will make an appointment for your viewing and ordering session in the following two weeks which we can do in person or via Zoom. You don’t need to decide which Collection or Products you would like to buy until this meeting and you have seen your gallery of x15 images and chosen your favourites. There is no pressure to buy any images should you decide not to.

YOUR BABY PHOTOSHOOT AT OUR SUFFOLK STUDIO
Baby Shoots are really for babies age 3 months to 24 months and they are such a lovely way of documenting your little one as they grow.
I have to admit I adore doing Baby Shoots as I have the pleasure of capturing those gorgeous little smiles, frowns, and inquisitive expressions as they pick up something new. The sweet wispy curls on their neck, the baby rolls on their thighs, and arms that are just too cute!
I get to photograph them hitting different milestones, like grabbing their feet, clapping their hands, sitting up unaided, crawling and walking. It’s a wonder to watch every single time!
We can do the shoot in the studio or outdoors if you prefer. Outdoor shoots are actually ideal for children age 12 to 24 months as they have started to walk and are less likely to be contained in a small studio environment.
We can shoot either on the farm or at a location of your choice and will capture them as they explore the world around them, with lots of interaction and cuddles with their siblings and Mum and Dad. Always a fun session no matter where the location!
For studio sessions, I have lots of beautiful knitted outfits, rompers, dresses, and accessories for you to choose from, or feel free to bring your own outfits if you prefer.
If you like props, I have plenty including bowls, crates, wooden toys, and a stunning vintage metal bed that the babies just love to sit on!
How long is the photoshoot?
We offer session photoshoots that range from 30 mins (for Mini Sessions) to 1.5 hour sessions. We allow enough time to take breaks for little ones so we are led by the baby mostly and they will let us know when they have had enough. I always ask Parents when their Baby is at their happiest and we’ll aim to start the shoot then.
Can i bring my partner and other children?
Your Partner and other children are more than welcome if you want a couple of family or sibling photos. If you just want photos of the Baby, then I’d recommend only yourself and one other person (your partner or a Grandparent) as too many people in the studio can be overwhelming for the Baby. If you would lots of photos of everyone, and not just Baby, then please refer to my Family Shoot page.
How soon will my photos be ready?
This process of editing your photos generally takes no longer than two to three weeks. I do both in person Viewing and Ordering Sessions at my studio or online via Zoom and we can set up a date in the diary before you leave your photoshoot.
We can do this in the evening when the children are in bed if that suits you best.
These sessions usually take no more than an hour and I will show you your images on a slideshow to music, and then can help you narrow down your favourites using a star system. I can also advise you on products including wall art, and Albums should you need help.
How do you supply digital files?
I supply Digital Files via a downloadable online web gallery and if you purchase one of the Luxury Picture Folio Boxes, you will receive a Crystal USB in that box too.
The Online Web Gallery is accessible via a password and you can download the high res and low res files using your own PIN number. It is password protected but you can share it with family and friends should you wish to, or share images on social media directly from the web gallery.
Your images will stay on there for 12 months and you will receive a reminder to download the images before it goes offline.
You can download the images as many times as you want.
I just want digitals! Do I have to buy prints?
There is no pressure to buy anything at all but Digital Files are only available to purchase with a Collection. The Collections also include a Print Credit which you can spend on Mounted Prints or Wall Art.
Having been in this industry for 11 years now, I know a lot of my previous clients who just bought Digitals have never found the time to do anything with them, which is such a waste. When investing in a Professional Portrait Shoot, I want my clients to have photos that they can display around their homes and enjoy every single day.
As I use the best suppliers I know my clients will receive top-quality products that will last for years and years, so that future generations can also enjoy their family portraits.
