2 newborn photographers that inspire me

Just like with every profession, there are people out there that will inspire your work, make you want to say: “wow” and give you goosebumps. Newborn photography is not any different, so today I’d like to share with you two of my favourite newborn photographers that inspire me. There are many more, but these two are very different, with distinctive style and masses of followers. They are artists, capturing those precious first moments of babies lives and freezing them for us forever. It’s utterly selfish to keep them all to myself, so I decided to let you into their world, to be amazed and fall in love with their creations.

Can you spoil a baby?

Our daughter is one year old! After what seemed to be the longest year of our lives, we decided it’s time for a break. My lovely parents volunteered to move into our house for two weeks, to look after our kids whilst we jetted off to a better, more peaceful, less sleep deprived place. Then we got THE phone call.

How to introduce your dog to a newborn baby.

This is a story about a small canine friend, who once was the centre of attention, only to be demoted by a small human, who barged through the door and stole all the limelight and attention. If, like me, you had to deal with this situation, or maybe about to deal with it, read on as we are trying to find a cure for our canine’s troubles.

Why it takes 4 hours to photograph a newborn baby.

When booking a newborn session with me, or any other newborn photographer for that matter, you will receive detailed instructions as to what to expect from the session and how to prepare for it. One of the things you will be made aware of is the amount time you would need to set aside for the session: an average of 4-5 hours. Mums rarely question this, but when dads are involved in booking the sessions, I often get the question following the info e-mail: “Why does it take that long?!” Here’s what you can expect during this time.

Road trip with a baby under one: survival guide.

This summer has been different. On some levels it’s been the same as most of our summers: we went for two European road trips, with next to no planning and no hotels pre-booked. But there was one detail that changed it all for us this year. We were now travelling with a baby under one year old.

Legal Guardian and why should we care?

There is a high chance, if you are reading this post on my website, you may be expecting a baby, or had one recently. With all the chaos surrounding the delivery, hospital appointments and preparations to welcome a new member of the family into your home, you might have never thought of anything as sad as not being there for your child to see them grow up. Even if you had a brief moment, when you though about it, the sheer realisation someone else could be raising your own children put shivers down your spine. No wonder so many parents don’t get around to appointing a legal guardian for their kids.

Why I don’t photograph pets, weddings or Bar Mitzvahs.

I often get enquiries to photograph older children, larger families, and weddings. Recently I was asked whether I would take a photo of a parrot and a baby together. Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against parrots, but here’s the thing..

5 Indoor things you can do with a baby if you live in the Sheffield area.

When I moved to the UK (over 10 years ago), I had a brief waitressing stunt at an interesting restaurant in London. It was brief as after my trial shift, during which I got caught googling the ingredients for a Cosmopolitan, I never got invited back. As much as I’d love to tell you about the interesting career moves this led to, it’s neither the time nor the place for it. What I will tell you about, however, is the actual restaurant, which I believe was the holy grail for all moms of newborns out there.

7 Awesome things for new parents

Every parent has got that one friend, who just knows stuff. Baby with a strange looking rash? They know what to take, apply, use to soothe the redness. They know which car seat to buy, which high chair is the best, and they are your go-to person in any baby related drama. Baby novelties and gadgets? They’ve tried it, tested it and reviewed in on Amazon.

The real price of newborn photography

I am not a fan of justifying pricing charged by photographers, whether it’s wedding albums or indeed, newborn shoots, but I want to write about it at least once before I put this subject to rest, as in recent months the price of newborn photography has been in the spotlight more often than usual.
