About Us

Hi, we’re Karen & Rob… and we’re the team at Baby Shoots!

With Rob having been a full-time professional photographer for over 20 years, we’ve spent the last 15 years specialising in creating beautiful newborn and baby portraits. While we help families from all over the South East, we have become the go-to choice for parents looking for a calm, boutique experience near East Grinstead and the surrounding villages.

Our baby-led newborn photoshoots are relaxed—no rush, no posing pressure—just gentle guidance and authentic moments you’ll treasure for life. Because our studio is located in Copthorne, we are perfectly positioned for families in Felbridge, Ashurst Wood, and Dormansland who want a luxury photography experience without the stress of traveling into a busy town centre.

In our free time, Karen loves to dance, and Rob is currently learning to play guitar. We love to unwind at a music festival and enjoy travelling when we can. We’re both naturally relaxed and very patient, which happens to be the perfect demeanour for a couple creating award-winning newborn photography for families in East Grinstead and across West Sussex!

IT’S ALL IN THOSE…

TINY LITTLE DETAILS!

We absolutely love creating those gorgeous prop‑based portraits—they give us the freedom to design truly creative newborn images.

But we also know it’s the little things that mean the most: tiny lips, perfect fingernails, and those adorable curled‑up toes.

Babies change so quickly, and these details disappear almost overnight. So we make sure to capture them all, giving you a beautifully balanced gallery with a wide variety of unique images you’ll treasure forever.

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.

Nestled in the quiet village of Copthorne (RH10), our private boutique studio is specifically designed for the comfort of newborns and (equally important) tired parents.

Because we are just a 10-minute drive from East Grinstead town centre via the A264, it’s a completely stress-free trip for families in Felbridge, Ashurst Wood, and Sunnyside.

Best of all? You can skip the struggle of finding a space near The Martlets and pull up right outside our front gates—meaning you’re only a few steps away from our warm, relaxing environment.

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! We are a very popular choice for families in Lingfield, Dormansland, and Ashurst Wood. Most of our clients from the RH7 and RH19 areas find it’s a quick, stress-free drive along the A264. Since we have free, private parking right outside our front gates, you don’t have to worry about navigating a busy town centre or narrow car parks with a new baby


Our studio is actually located in the quiet village of Copthorne – just a graceful ten‑minute drive from East Grinstead. While many families searching for a newborn photographer join us from East Grinstead, we’re equally honoured to welcome clients from across the Southeast—often travelling up to three hours to experience our signature, luxury newborn sessions!

We also welcome families from across Sussex, Surrey, and Kent, and it’s always a pleasure when parents choose to travel from farther afield—whether from London, neighbouring counties, or even overseas. Our award‑winning newborn photography attracts families seeking a truly elevated experience, wherever they’re coming from.

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 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).

If you’d like to know more, you can visit this page about our editing and retouching process to get the very best quality for your newborn portraits.
