Fingers entwined through locks of hair, eyes that squint with the newness of life and yawns that fill one’s entire face. These are the spaces where in a day, time will stop, your heart will skip, and memories will come flooding in reminding you of precious moments with your newborn baby.
I have been exactly where you are, trying to cling to a special moment, while being swept away in the midst of juggling life and all that welcoming a new family member brings with it. When time stands still and your thoughts are only of ‘I never want to forget this moment’, as you attend to the needs of your newborn’s routine.
Although your need to capture these moments are of the utmost importance, the thought of getting all glitzed and glammed and journeying out to attend a professional photoshoot is a little overwhelming, just to be handed reams of photographs with mannequin smiles and unnatural imagery that fails to reflect who you are and the magic that is your newborn baby.
So instead, you stay curled up at home, no uncomfortable shoes, no uncomfortable clothes, just to cocoon yourself in the haven that is you and your beautiful little loved one.There are no props, no awkward poses or mechanical smiles, just you in your own home, allowing us to capture the natural love and nurturing between you and your new baby.
I will capture the gentle, open and calm connectedness between you and your newborn, while allowing your baby to feel safe in their own home and in the arms of their loved ones.
The aim of our session is to create powerful imagery for you to relive the feelings, the moments and the experiences that is the love and beauty of having a newborn baby.
Do you have a new addition to your family? I would love to capture these precious moments for you too.
