About Us

Meet Karen and Rob—the specialists behind your Crawley newborn portraits.

We have spent over 15 years building a reputation as the trusted choice for families in Crawley, Maidenbower, and Pound Hill. Our Copthorne studio was designed specifically to offer a peaceful sanctuary just minutes from the bustle of the town centre. By combining Rob’s 20+ years of technical expertise with a deep commitment to newborn safety, we’ve created a space where local parents can truly relax while we capture their family’s earliest milestones.

In fact, many of our clients return to us year after year as their families grow. We are West Sussex locals through and through; when we’re not behind the lens, we love exploring the Sussex countryside on long walks or recharging with a quiet evening and a great film. This local connection drives our passion for providing Crawley families with a professional, welcoming, and world-class photography service.

HOW IT WORKS

Our simple steps to creating the best newborn PHOTOGRAPHY for you

01.

Reserve your newborn session today

We recommend scheduling your newborn photoshoot for roughly 7–10 days after your due date. Once booked, we’ll allocate space in our calendar, and send you our expert preparation guide.

Our flexible online booking system makes it simple to adjust your appointment if your baby arrives earlier or later than expected.

02.

Enjoy a calm, memorable newborn experience

Settle in and relax while we take care of everything right in front of you. Watching your baby gently and safely posed is a wonderful experience you’ll truly enjoy, as we create a set of beautiful images for you.

Our studio atmosphere is peaceful and unhurried, turning your newborn session into a beautiful first family memory.

03.

View and select your favourite images to keep

Once your portraits have been professionally edited, and retouched, you’ll return for a private viewing to select your favourites. You’re going to LOVE them!

For added convenience, you can upgrade to an all‑inclusive digital collection online if you decide you’d like the full gallery, without even having to return to the studio for a viewing session.

04.

Private online gallery with instant downloads

After choosing your images and any optional extras, your portraits will be available to download directlt from your own secure online gallery.

You can share your online gallery with loved ones, and it also includes options for ordering frames, prints, canvases, and more.

IT’S ALL IN THOSE…

TINY LITTLE DETAILS!

We absolutely love creating those beautifully styled prop images we’re known for – they allow us to craft truly artistic, high‑end newborn portraits for you.

However, at Baby Shoots, we also know that the smallest details often become the most treasured: the soft curve of tiny lips, perfect little fingernails, or those irresistibly curled toes.

These little details can work together to create a stunning multi-image art piece for your walls – and can be equally appealing if you decide to create a beautiful, storybook portrait album from your new baby portraits.

Newborns stay this tiny for such a fleeting moment, and it passes far quicker than you expect. So we make sure to capture those delicate details with the same level of care and artistry, giving you a refined, well‑rounded gallery with a luxurious mix of creative setups and intimate close‑ups.

It’s a collection designed to feel timeless, personal, and beautifully complete.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

The best newborn portraits take place at just 7 to 10 days old – or no later than 2 weeks old if possible. We strongly recommend booking early (while pregnant) if at all possible.

For the best results, we recommend booking after your 20-week scan. The ideal window for those sleepy, curled-up portraits is between 7 and 14 days old, though we can capture beautiful “older newborn” images up to 6 weeks.

If we need to change your exact shoot date later, that’s no problem (see below).

This is no problem, so long as you’ve already booked a slot with us. Your booking confirmation includes a link so you can reschedule your photoshoot onlineif needed.


This means you can be confident of getting the perfect date for your newborn photography.

If your baby is already born, we recommend using our online scheduler to book in a date for as soon as possible. If your baby is already 2 weeks or older, we can still create a set of beautiful baby pictures for you… But your session may include simpler poses and more dressed or wrapped images.

All newborn portraits take place in our Newborn Photography Studio in Copthorne, West Sussex.

Our home studio is a private, dedicated space in Copthorne (RH10 postcode area), specifically tailored for the comfort of babies and parents. We provide a warm, relaxing environment with parking right outside our driveway, making it a stress-free trip for families from nearby East Grinstead, Crawley, Horley and other surrounding areas in Sussex and Surrey.

Our newborn photoshoots generally take place on Monday to Thursday mornings. Limited weekends are available, subject to availability, and a small weekend premium (please contact us directly).

Absolutely! While we are the top choice for families looking for a newborn photographer in Crawley, our customers come from many different areas across the Southeast. We primarily serve parents from across Sussex, Surrey, and Kent, but we also regularly welcome families from much further afield, such as London—and even customers who live abroad! You can view our full range of award-winning newborn photography services across Sussex to see how we cater to families throughout the region.


Yes, of course! Digital images are included in all our newborn photo shoot packages – and all newborn sessions also include the option to add additional digital (or printed) images if you want to. In fact, after enjoying their newborn photoshoot, we find that most people to want to upgrade to all the images we’ve created for them! 🙂

You can add extra digital images, either individually or as a complete set of all files (this also includes a beautiful, ultra-high-resolution animated slideshow set to music). Customers who pre-purchase all files can do so without returning to the studio for a viewing and ordering session, if they choose.

All images are meticulously edited and retouched to perfection, before we show them to you… So there will be a short wait while we prepare your images after your portrait session – but not too long! Images are usually ready within 2 weeks (often less).
