When should you book your newborn photoshoot?.

The best time to reserve your newborn session is during pregnancy, ideally after your 20-week scan. We pencil sessions into our diary when you book, then confirm your final appointment once your baby arrives.

This keeps the process flexible if your baby arrives earlier or later than expected. Most newborn sessions take place within 7 to 10 days after birth, while babies are still naturally sleepy and curled up.

We'd organised for our 6 month old son a christmas photoshoot with Baby Shoots - the team were professional, patient and provided the image gallery very quickly to us. We are very happy with the outcome and the photos captured are very special to us. Highly recommended.

We had a brilliant mini Christmas shoot with Rob at Baby Shoots Photography. Beautiful set up and the photos are fab! Rob dealt brilliantly with our daughter who didn't sit still even for a second so even more impressed with the photos that he's produced!

Back again for the Christmas photoshoot and yet again the photos were so beautiful. I will never not go anywhere else for special memories such as these. Thank you for all of your hard work and capturing some gorgeous gorgeous shots!

Booked another Christmas mini session again this year and once again did not disappoint. With both of their help I got some lovely pictures. They were very relaxed when my 15 month old was playing with the set and we wasn’t rushed out the door like some photographers I’ve heard about. They also make a real effort to have the two sets beautifully laid out. Will be going back next year.

I recently had my children's ‘Christmas mini photo session’ with Karen and Rob and I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience. They were both so welcoming, friendly and extremely patient which made both my daughters feel completely comfortable. The photos were also absolutely beautiful, when receiving them I couldn’t stop smiling at how lovely they were. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend this experience to anyone. Thank you so much! 🎄
