    Newborn Family Photography | Welcoming Rufus

    A lot of times, I talk about transformations in my photography, and I truly believe that newborn family Photography is the ultimate example.

    You might have seen my blog post showing Rufus’s parents before he was earthside. Glowing in love and magical in a simply ethereal shoot. Carrie-Louise looked phenomenal, a glowing pregnant goddess. Hair blowing in the wind, and dresses from my studio wardrobe. Total perfection. I adored it.

    I adore this gallery just as much because it’s gentle and real. Here we are welcoming Rufus. This time at home, peaceful, tired, deeply in love. Transformed once more.

    Come as you are

    Bringing home your baby – I love being a small part of it, standing back and capturing all the moments for a couple of hours. I blend into the background as much as possible and let you do your thing as a family, then I come in a little closer for all those delightful newborn details.

    Awake, feeding, snuggling, sleeping, we’ll capture it all. The beginning of family.

    Take the time

    It’s a total honour to be invited into your space to document this time with you. I love all the little details that creep into the pictures that show the realness of life with a newborn. It’s so important that you don’t stress about having me there and having your pictures. If you want to wear the dresses do, but if you want to be in your love cosy dressing gown, we’ll work with that too. This is the time to capture your new family as you are.

    What’s important is you have this time to look back on. I guarantee you will never look back and wish you hadn’t taken pictures of your tiny little human before they grew to be taller than you. They will never be as little as they are now. But at least we can do our best to remember them so small.

    Let’s connect and talk about your newborn family photography.

    In-home Session

    For their baby photography Cornwall based couple Mel and Pete booked me for an in-home session. Based in Newquay we had a delightful little shoot for their first baby, the perfect little Jasper. 

    Things to do if you’re visiting

    Mel and Pete have a super busy life running Cornwall Wave Runner Safaris and making insanely delicious pizza at Jasper’s Kitchen, their cute little pizza pop-up. This family are truly living their best life in Cornwall. 

    Mel and Pete are amongst such great company when it comes to things to do in Cornwall. From jet skiing to powerboat rides, and even abseiling and surf school. So if you are down for a little extra adventure during your holiday, then don’t hesitate to book me.

    If you don’t live here and are visiting but still want a more indoors shoot then take a look at some of the beautiful homes available on Airbnb. Shooting at your holiday house is totally a possibility and can make for some stunning images!

    Baby Photography

    Back to beautiful babies – I was delighted during this session as Mel and Pete are just the nicest people. They had the most beautiful ocean themed nursery which isn’t too surprising given their love for the sea. In fact Pete was already planning when he would be getting Jasper in the sea. Looking forward to seeing this future water baby grow that is for sure.

    Jasper was so calm and adorable, I have said it before but I love these beautiful, gentle shoots in your home, welcoming your new addition to the family. I’m always so honoured to be invited into the sacred newborn bubble to share an hour or so with you to capture super cute moments together as a family. 

    These are the days of your lives friends, please please document them!
