Newborn Photography & Film

Welcoming a new baby is one of the most incredible and life changing experiences, and those first few weeks go by so quickly. My relaxed, lifestyle approach is all about capturing these early days just as they are, beautiful, messy, and full of love.

Whether you’re snuggling on the couch, admiring tiny fingers and toes in the nursery, or soaking in those first few hours at the hospital, I’ll be there to document it all with photos and film in a way that feels natural and effortless.

Photos & Films: The Whole Story

Photos freeze those little moments you want to hold onto, while films really bring them to life. The way your baby stretches and yawns, the way the stare off into the distance, and how they fit so perfectly in your arms, it all comes together to tell the full story of this time in your life.

You don’t need to pick one or the other. I combine photos and films seamlessly during your session, so you end up with a complete collection of memories to look back on forever.

Fresh 48 Sessions

Fresh 48 sessions happen in the first couple of days after your baby is born, at the hospital or in the comfort of your home. These sessions are all about capturing the raw, real moments. The first cuddles, siblings meeting for the first time, or even just the quiet awe of these early hours.

No need to tidy or get dressed up, it’s all about soaking up this new beginning. I’ll capture the details so you can stay in the moment.

Newborn Lifestyle Sessions

If you’d rather wait until things settle a little, lifestyle newborn sessions are done at home in those first few weeks. We’ll use natural light and shoot in the rooms where your family spends the most time, usually the nursery or your bedroom.

These sessions are easygoing and flexible, with a focus on real connection and moments between your family. Whether it’s cuddles with siblings or your dog sneaking into the frame, we’ll capture it all in a way that feels relaxed and real.

Let’s Document Your Family’s Story

Whether you choose a Fresh 48, a lifestyle newborn session, or both, my goal is to give you a collection of photos and a film that bring you right back to this amazing time of your life every time you look at them.

Kind Words

My favourite part of the entire experience was how comfortable and easy Sarah made both the photoshoot and video be. She was so easy going and constantly taking footage that you didn’t have to worry about it being posed and she truly could capture the beauty of our real life and us as a family. 

I cannot express how much I’m going to cherish the moments captured between our first born with our second. Capturing the bond they have already between a 2.5 year old and his little sister and watching him express his love for her in both the photos and video will allow us to preserve these memories as they grow up. 

I would definitely recommend Sarah as she captured the most perfect photos and video of our newborn and us as a family. She made the process so easy and comfortable that we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. I’m so glad we booked Sarah to capture these photos and videos as I know how quickly our children will grow and now we have these memories forever.

If I were to book again I would definitely prefer both photos and video. Photos are perfect at capturing the moments and it will be so nice to print them and have them hanging in your home. The video will be so nice to look back on of our family, our toddler and newborn; the real and raw footage is perfect.

“We were feeling a bit nervous about baby staying settled throughout the session, and whether we would all be comfortable in front of the camera. But Sarah was calm and relaxed throughout the session, encouraged us to do whatever we needed to do with baby (feeding, soothing, nappy changes). She didn’t make us feel rushed at all and she really worked with the unpredictable nature of babies (and our dogs!). She just kept the whole session relaxed and had us feeling comfortable the whole time. 

We loved how Sarah really wanted to capture us just being a family - and how she was so patient with all of us. She was also more than happy to include our fur babies - even though they weren’t super easy to work with!! 

We would absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone looking to have some beautiful memories captured to cherish forever. She will keep the session low pressure, whilst capturing the most amazing shots. We are so excited to create a gallery wall with all of the beautiful shots Sarah captured for us. 

We are so grateful to Sarah for coming into our home to capture our newborn bubble with such kindness and professionalism!”

“Sarah was fantastic throughout the entire process. Despite the hectic atmosphere of being newly home from the hospital, she skilfully managed the chaos of our home during the photo session. Her interaction with Freddie was wonderful; she kept him calm and happy throughout, demonstrating patience whenever he needed it.

The final pictures reflect her professionalism and care, and we're thrilled with them! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sarah and will definitely use her services again.”

~ Nico, Greg & Freddie

“We both work in the technology space and the biggest worry for us was keeping the privacy and anonymity of us and child. The conversation with Sarah in the lead up of the photo shoot was comforting and genuine. The shoot was natural and professional, we're really glad that we did it!

Sarah was professional and quite delicate, this made the photoshoot seem natural and not forced.

Sarah is a pleasure to work with, easy communication, quick responses and she has accommodated to our timing and needs for the photoshoot.”

Sarah did an amazing job with our newborn photoshoot! All communication leading up to our session was warm and more like talking to a friend than to a service provider. After all, you’re welcoming her in your home likely before family and friends have met your new baby.

Our favourite part about the photoshoot experience with Sarah was her patience and to see how much she enjoys her job (getting the camera back out a couple of times to capture special moments after the session had been over already).

We love every single photo she took of us as a family and especially of our sweet boy.”
