SESSION
I would be absolutely honoured if you choose me as your newborn photographer and thrilled to be able to capture the first days of your sweet little one! Newborn sessions are held in my studio and are typically 2 - 4 hrs long to ensure that there is plenty of time for feeding, soothing and changing your baby.
WHEN TO BOOK
The best time to book your session is just after your 12 week scan, once you've booked I will pencil your due date in my diary. I will reserve some time before and after this date to ensure plenty of space for you. Once your baby arrives please contact me within 48 hours of birth for a fixed day. All newborn sessions are held within 14 days of baby’s birth (preferably within 5-10 days) therefore its SUPER important to contact me ASAP. However if your baby was born early or if you booking later please still contact me as I might have last minute availability.
PRICE & PACKAGES
Please note that there are 4 packages for newborn photography sessions starting as low as £250 (payment plans are available, please enquire). Images with parents & siblings are also available with newborn packages. Please see the detailed price list HERE.
A Day in Your Life with New Baby "fresh 48" lifestyle session is also available upon enquiry. Includes 40 digital images on USB and an artistic slideshow video (please contact to discuss as these are limited).
Please note that all of the above sessions are posed newborn sessions except for the "fresh 48". If you are after a relaxed unposed lifestyle newborn session in your home environment you shall book a "fresh 48" rather than any other package. These sessions can be done within the very first days the baby has arrived home or at any other time later. Please enquire specifically for this session mentioning 'fresh 48' or 'lifestyle' in your e-mail.
BOOKING
Please CONTACT me with your due date and pay a booking fee to secure your date. The session date is secured only when the booking fee is received (please note that if you do not pay the booking fee as soon as, the date might be given to anyone else who enquired before or after you). Although it is advised to book 2-3 months in advance I may have last minute availability too.
STYLE & WORKFLOW
Closer to the shoot date you will receive a prep guide for your session and we will discuss your colour choice and image preferences. Please look through my work on my website so you can see if my style matches what you are after for your session. I only shoot to my own styling and keep it to my own workflow to ensure the session is smooth and that the baby is happy. If you wish anything to be included in your session this is best discussed in advance so I can let you know if/how we could introduce it in your session.
SAFETY & EXPERIENCE
Please choose your photographer carefully! Dream Artsy is an insured photographer trained to work with newborns and babies, also training other newborn photographers and is a registered member of BANPAS, GUILD and SWPP and fully insured. Safe newborn photography practice is a number one priority!
YOUNGER SIBLINGS
If you have a newborn baby and are considering a newborn shoot with the sibling
the best age for siblings is from 3 years up as before then they hardly understand
what you are trying to achieve from them and do not always perform. As this is a newborn
session we unfortunately will not be able to concentrate on a toddler instead of a newborn.
I also need to insure that the newborn is safe and comfortable and that the session is kept
at its normal workflow. Please bare this in mind when booking and do not expect your younger
little one to perform their best to avoid disappointment.
OTHER SESSIONS/IMAGES
Please note that you will need to choose a different package as an extra if you want combine
a solo Baby Milestones, Family, Sibling, Cake smash, Baby bath, Maternity or any other images.
