newborn
My newborn sessions are the perfect way to capture those very early days that otherwise pass you by at lightning speed! Brand new babies change so quickly in the first few months and even weeks, so this session is a must-have for any proud new parent who wants to remember exactly how their little one looked when they first joined the world. Held at my home studio in mid-Sussex, usually within the first 14 days of your baby being born to ensure we get those cute, sleepy poses and before baby becomes curious about their surroundings and refuses to close their eyes. I set aside a whole day for each newborn session meaning that you don’t need to worry about how much feeding or comforting your little one might need in between poses – we go at the pace your baby needs – usually these sessions take about 3 hours but sometimes it can be a little longer.
I recommend booking your newborn session around the date of your 20 week scan to avoid disappointment; let me know your due date when you book and we will keep in touch nearer the time, knowing full well babies hardly ever arrive on the actual date!
Newborn session fees start at £79 for weekdays
sitter
Sitter sessions aim to capture your baby when they first learn to sit up on their own – these sessions are super cute as your little one is full of intrigue and smiles yet they aren’t yet able to crawl off anywhere!
Booked for around the 7-9 month old mark, babies must be able to sit for a little while unaided to get the most from their session. Your baby will be styled in cute and generally neutral coloured little outfits but feel free to bring along your favourite outfit from home too if you like!
Sessions last approx. 60 minutes and are held in my home studio in Hurstpierpoint.

Cake Smash
Turning 1 is a big deal! Let your little one celebrate this milestone birthday with a fun and messy cake smash session; sit back and watch your baby’s face light up as they get stuck into their very first birthday cake. All sessions start with a few clean portrait photos before the cake comes out and the real fun commences!
Prior to the day of the smash we’ll chat through any colour and decoration preferences you have, meaning that all you have to do is turn up and have fun!
Session price includes approx. 60 minutes photo session time here in my home studio, all decorations and props, a cute outfit plus the all important cake for smashing! Once the images are ready, you will have access to a private online viewing gallery where you can choose your favourites and the type of products you would like for your chosen images.
If your baby has any known food allergies please advise me upon booking your session.
Session fees start at £85 for weekdays
Family
Spend some quality time together having fun as a family and be in the photo rather than taking it for a change!
We’ll head out to a scenic location in Sussex where you and your loved ones can just be yourselves; playing , laughing, maybe even having a picnic if you wanted to bring one! I’ll be there with camera, capturing events as they unfold, with minimal direction so that the end result is a gallery full of memories of good times rather than forced poses.
Sessions last between 60-90 minutes and generally take place in the morning or late afternoon when the sun is not as strong.
