Welcome

If you’re looking for newborn photos that feel natural, relaxed, and full of love welcome, you’re in the right place.

I’m a young, creative photographer who absolutely loves what I do. I bring colour, energy, and a calm, baby-led approach to every session, with plenty of experience working with newborns and children of all ages.

My sessions are designed to feel easy, enjoyable, and completely stress free so you can actually soak in the moment while I capture it all for you.

Because these days? They don’t last long… but your photos will.

Where do you start?

I’m going to say something a lot of people don’t think about…

Booking your newborn session is just the first step.

So many parents get their gallery back, absolutely love their photos… and then they just sit on a phone or USB and never get looked at again.

And honestly? That’s such a waste of something so special.

That’s why I always guide you to think about how you actually want to use your photos whether that’s on your walls, in an album, or gifts for family.

Because yes, you’ll probably love every single image… but I want to make sure they actually fit your home, your vibe, and your life.

Your baby’s first photos deserve more than just being scrolled past

Packages and Prices

When working with a senior photographer, there are typically two fees you need to plan for:

1: Session Fee: £149. This fee is similar to a booking fee and covers your time in the studio. It is due at the time of booking, typically around your 20-week mark, and is non-refundable as it reserves Diana's availability for you.

Every newborn session booked before Mum is 25wks will receive a free maternity session. Photos will be included in your final package that you will purchase at your viewing two weeks after your newborn photo session.

2: Package Price: This is where you purchase your images and physical products. It is due two weeks after your newborn session at your viewing appointment.

Getting ready for your session

Hi, Diana here! I can't wait to meet you in person. Here are a few things to help you get ready for your maternity and newborn session. I always suggest having everything packed and organised a few weeks before the baby arrives, as there is nothing worse than trying to get everything together with a brand new baby!

The first question most clients ask is: "How can we book a session if we don't know when the baby is going to arrive?"

It's really very simple:

I pencil in your due date, which allows me to keep a session available for you two weeks before and two weeks after your due date. So no matter when baby gets here we always have a session available for you for the four weeks around your due date.
Dad's job: When baby arrives and Dad texts all the family to tell them baby is here, he needs to add us to that list.
When I receive the text message I will reply with: "Congratulations - your photography session is Tues at 10am".
Easy!

WHERE:

The maternity and newborn photography sessions will take place at my EH16 Studio - conveniently located in central Edinburgh - where you will be welcomed into a warm, comfortable, and relaxing environment that is fully equipped with everything you may need (including free off-street parking!).

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE:

Maternity sessions are 1 hour long, but I am totally fine if they run a little over for my mummies who want to pick my brain on everything from preparing for breastfeeding to getting a newborn to sleep. It's better to be prepared than to wing it!

Newborn Sessions are between 2 and 4 hours, allowing time to feed, cuddle, and make your baby feel happy (and even giving Dad time to have a doze on my couch!). I typically have siblings, extended family, and pets come in at the end, but I am flexible if you need them to come in at the beginning. Please raise this with me prior to your session.

WHAT WILL YOU NEED TO BRING:

You have your hospital bag; now you need a photography bag.

I have all the clothes that you might need for Mum and baby, but your photography bag should include the following:

Flesh or white-coloured underwear for Mum. A simple, smooth fabric bra, such as a t-shirt bra, and underpants, to ensure lines do not show through.
Dad's outfit should consist of a white t-shirt without any logos or collar (no shirts or polo shirts), paired with blue jeans. While I understand that Dads often have their favourite branded t-shirt, logos can be distracting in the final image.
Please bring wipes, ointments, and creams for your baby.
If you are bottle-feeding, please bring twice the amount you typically go through in a four-hour period. Babies tend to eat more during the session, and we want to ensure all their needs are met.
Pack a full change of clothes, nappies, and a sterilised spare dummy for the baby, if you are using one.
Feel free to bring drinks and snacks, as you will be with me for up to four hours. However, tea, coffee, and water are provided at the studio.

Having experienced childbirth myself, I understand how tender you may feel for the first couple of weeks after your baby is born. For this reason, I have set up a lounge area in my studio with comfortable sofas, a TV equipped with Netflix, and ample opportunities to rest. The initial months with a new baby can be overwhelming, so please feel free to arrive in your pyjamas. The most important thing is that you make it to the studio. I will take care of everything else. You will have plenty of time to do your hair and makeup while I attend to the baby, so don't stress about those details. I am here to support you and make the process as easy as possible.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER ALL THE PHOTO SHOOTS:

Following your newborn photography session, we will schedule a viewing appointment for you to review all your portraits from the comfort of your own home. At your appointed time, I will call and email you a link to your online gallery, where we will watch a slideshow video of all your final images set to music. I challenge you not to shed a tear! Once you are completely satisfied, you can confirm which package you would like and make payment. Orders typically take between 1-4 weeks to arrive. Upon their arrival, I will send you a text message to arrange a date and time for you to collect your stunning images
