The ideal window is between 5–14 days after birth when your baby is still sleepy and curled up. We’ll pencil in your due date and confirm the shoot once baby arrives.

My warm and cosy studio is in Sidcup, South East London, easily accessible from Bexley, Greenwich, Dartford, and Bromley.

What does a newborn session include?

A 2–4 hour baby-led session, time for feeding and settling, plus a selection of wraps, props and natural setups. You’ll receive a gallery to choose your final images.

Is newborn photography safe for my baby?

Absolutely. I’m trained in newborn safety and only use gentle, baby-led posing to ensure your baby’s comfort throughout.

Kind Words

We couldn’t recommend Jo more! She is truly amazing at what she does and really put us ease. She fitted us in last minute for our newborn photoshoot and was really friendly. Jo really took the time to find out what it is we wanted for the photos and took lots of different photos to achieve this. Since receiving the edited photos we couldn’t be more over the moon with them! They are just beautiful! Thank you again :)
