Natural, Meaningful Newborn Photos That Tell Your Real Story
In-home newborn photography is about more than perfect poses; it’s about capturing the heart of your early days together.
Your photos will include:
Your baby in their own little bedroom or nursery nook
Tiny personal details like favourite blankets, coastal-themed décor, or that special seaside-inspired mobile
Genuine cuddles on your sofa, in your bed, or by the window with soft Hampshire light
Authentic connections between you, your partner, siblings, and your new arrival
These images become deeply personal keepsakes, a true reflection of life in those magical, sleep-deprived first weeks.
Beautiful Natural Light, Wherever You Live
You don’t need a huge or “magazine-perfect” home for stunning in-home newborn photos.
I work with:
Soft, natural window light (especially lovely in those bright coastal mornings)
Simple, neutral spaces that feel warm and inviting
The rooms in your home that mean the most to you
Whether you’re in a cosy Portsmouth flat with sea views, a family home in Southsea, a cottage in the Hampshire countryside, or anywhere nearby, we’ll create timeless, gentle images that feel authentic and full of warmth.
A Slower, More Baby-Led Experience All my in-home newborn sessions are fully baby-led, because your little one sets the pace.
That means:
Plenty of time for feeds, nappy changes, and endless cuddles
No pressure for your baby to sleep on cue or “perform”
Complete flexibility to follow their natural rhythm
This calm, unhurried approach creates a relaxed experience for everyone and results in photographs that feel genuine, emotional, and full of love.
As a mum to five boys myself, I know how overwhelming (and wonderful) those early days can be. Booking an in-home session means you get to focus on soaking up every moment, while I quietly capture the magic in the place you love most, your home.
Ready to preserve those fleeting newborn days in the comfort of your own space?
