Newborn Photo Session
Our sessions are between 2-4 hours in a purpose-built baby studio, to cater for all your baby's needs. At footprints we keep the room temperature at 26 degrees to keep your little baby warm and aim to create a calm and relaxed atmosphere for Mum and Dad. Each session we make sure that we always have two photographers to keep baby safe when posing.
We start on the beanbag for all those beautiful bespoke photographs with a selection of colour combinations of your choice. We then move onto the props with different backgrounds and flooring and then finish with baby art, which can include Mum and Dad.
At Footprints we do recommend to book your newborn photo session with us during your pregnancy, as we do pre-book newborn sessions months in advance. By pre-booking, you will have a priority booking slot during the first 14 days of your baby's birth.
We aim to get you in within the first 14 days as baby is still very sleepy and makes it easier for the session. Once booked we send you a preparation guide on how to prep baby before your session, and a questionnaire to help the session run smoothly and to find out what you would like from your newborn session.
We have a large selection of props that you can choose from. Also, we go up and beyond to make your time in the studio as stress free as we possibly can.

Why under 14 days?
As soon as your baby is born , they will start to uncurl and with each day they will become more awake and stimulated by the world around them. Within the first 10 days, they are at their sleepiest, which is the best time to capture your beautiful images. This will ensure that you get the maximum amount of poses and photos that you can cherish forever!
Newborn Studio
Our beautiful newborn studio is always heated to 26 degrees to keep your newborn warm and relaxed. With two highly trained photographers in the session at all times, we ensure your newborns safety (one photographer to shoot and one photographer to spot and keep your little baby comfortable).
We have been photographing newborn babies for over 50 years combined and know all those little tricks to keep your baby calm. We also have a sofa for Mum & Dad to relax, a baby changing unit and tea & coffee.
We provide all props and little outfits for your baby to use, during your shoot. We have over 500 different colour combinations and make each shoot bespoke to you!
Watch Me Grow
If you are thinking of booking in a Newborn photo session with us, why not book in with a Watch Me Grow package!
