Welcome to Estelle Thompson Photography, mama!
If you’re expecting a bundle of joy and considering capturing those precious early moments, you might be wondering what to expect from a professional newborn photoshoot. Here are five things you might not know about my newborn sessions:
A Home Away from Home
My purpose-built studio in Fairview, Sevenoaks, is designed to recreate a cosy, nest-like atmosphere. This “home away from home” approach ensures both you and your newborn feel completely at ease during the session.
The warm, relaxing environment allows for natural, authentic moments to be captured, resulting in images that truly reflect the wonder of those first few days with your little one.
Booking Early is Key
While it might seem premature, the ideal time to book your newborn session is actually during your pregnancy. I recommend getting in touch as early as your 20-week scan. This early booking isn’t just about securing a spot in my schedule; it also allows enough time to plan the styling of your session and helps you prepare for the photoshoot.
By discussing your vision and preferences well in advance, I can ensure everything is perfect when your little one arrives.
Newborn Photography: Safety First
You might assume that any photographer can handle a newborn session, but that’s not the case. Special training is needed as babies have special needs. I have also undergone specific training in the art of newborn posing and safety. This specialised knowledge is actually very important when working with delicate newborns.
My experience helps me create beautiful, artistic poses while prioritising your baby’s comfort and well-being. This commitment to safety is actually what sets professional newborn photography apart from casual snapshots.
Flexibility
One common concern for parents is: “What if my baby doesn’t sleep during the session?” Rest assured, I’m prepared for all scenarios. My experience helps me work with your baby’s natural rhythms, whether they are asleep or wide-eyed and alert.
Every one of these sessions is tailored to your newborn’s needs to capture these beautiful images regardless of their mood or sleep patterns.
More Than Just Photos—It’s an Experience
When you book a newborn session with me, you’re not just paying for photos. You’re investing in a complete experience and a set of lifelong memories. The £65 session fee covers the entire process and my work in the studio, which allows you to relax while everything is sorted out.
After the session, you’ll have the opportunity to view your gallery of edited images and choose from a range of collections and products, starting at £299. What truly sets my newborn sessions apart is my passion for capturing these fleeting moments.
Conclusion
Deciding on a newborn photographer is a significant decision. With me, Estelle Thompson, you’re not just getting beautiful photos; you’re entrusting those precious first days to a skilled professional who understands the importance of safety, comfort, and creating timeless memories for your family.
