Joyful & Emotive Newborn Photography

The early days are certainly something incredibly precious. I want to help you capture the true essence of these early days so you can be reminded of the small details in many years to come. My photography style is very relaxed. While I come equipped with ideas for poses and will guide in terms of where to position yourselves for the best light - the sessions are very baby led and natural. This means if your baby needs lots of feeds, changes, cuddles we will work around that. I love photographing in people’s homes because I believe that your home is part of your story. It’s also the place where you feel most comfortable and you have everything you need at your fingertips.

My newborn sessions typically take place within the first 3 months. If you’re after the very early days, the crunching up then I would advise to book it within the first 2 weeks. If you are more after capturing an alert baby then closer to 3 months would be perfect. But really there is no right or wrong - each stage is incredibly precious.
All we need is windows. I have been photographing families in various different style homes and each worked out brilliantly. Please don’t worry about your home being suitable. If you are not sure, we can always do a video call ahead of the session where you can show me your home and I can tell you what I think and which areas would work best for photos. I have also prepared a blog post to help you prepare your home for a session.
Simply fill in the contact form on my website or send me an email to maria@bymariaoconnor.com with your preferred date and we’ll take it from there.
Newborn & Family photography is an investment for sure. But it’s an investment that will only grow in value over time. My Session fee is £75 for weekday and £175 for weekend. This does not include images, these must be purchase separately.
