Happy New Year to everyone! I do hope that the festive season has provided you with plenty of fun and laughter with family and friends. We have certainly been enjoying the last few weeks! Now it is time to reflect on the year that seems to have yet again flown by in a flash and which on New Year’s Eve left me pining for a few more weeks as we rushed towards midnight! But as always, time ticks on and we find ourselves with 362 days left to make every day an exciting adventure as we journey through 2016.
Below are some of my personal favourites from sessions in 2015, it’s been a fabulous year which has seen me capturing more families than ever before. It’s such a pleasure to be a family photographer so I am truly grateful to Clients for choosing me to capture such precious family time. It remains an absolute joy so I cannot wait for my first shoot of 2016 next week – twin baby boys, bring it on!
I wish each and every one of you happiness, love and much laughter for a fab year ahead!

I was very excited to meet up again to photograph 9 month old Stephanie and her parents from Guildford in Surrey. I first photographed the family a month before Staphanie’s arrival, then as a newborn, so it was very exciting to see how much she had grown – and what a cutie! Her Mum said “Its been wonderful to have Nicola capture our special moments with Stephanie, she’s captured Stephanie’s likeness so well! We’ll treasure these photos for years to come!”. It’s been my privilege guys and I have really enjoyed getting to know you! Hope to see you again soon. x

Looking for a Maternity Photographer Guildford Surrey?
I love being a maternity photographer Guildford Surrey. It’s always exciting meeting a new family ready for their maternity, baby or family photography shoot! I have Clients all over Surrey and the surrounding counties, with children of all ages. Some Clients like to book individual sessions, and some book onto my year long baby photography package. On this photography journey I record their experience through an important stage of their lives! As you can see, this is a very exciting time for Mum Liezel and family! This is the first of three shoots they will have over the next twelve to eighteen months. It was great fun getting to know the family and hearing about their plans for the arrival of their second child!
Liezel kindly offered a lovely testimonial:
“Nicola was simply amazing. My 3 year old tends to get quite shy, but Nicola engaged with her and made her feel at ease immediately upon meeting and I really believe that helped us to get amazing photos. Nicola was so patient – again working with a 3 year old isn’t always a walk in the park – but she handled it so well and so professionally and I am absolutely amazed at the gorgeous moments she managed to capture.”
Thanks Liezel my pleasure! Good luck and I can’t wait to hear news of when your baby arrives. I will be ready for your newborn shoot with me. In meantime, take care and enjoy putting your feet up when you can! x

It’s such a great job being a baby children’s photographer Surrey. I get to meet families from all over Surrey and beyond.
I was really looking forward to photographing baby Alfie and family from Guildford in Surrey. You may recognise them as it’s their fourth shoot with me. Thankfully I am documenting their growing family through the different stages of childhood. I first met the family 2 years ago when their eldest Freddie was 6 months old. This seems like a lifetime ago now! I feel like I’ve really had a chance to get to know the family over that time which is lovely. In fact I’ve passed on some of my own children’s toys to the boys. One of the toys is our big frog sandpit which apparently was a big hit over the summer!
The family seem to be doing very well with their latest gorgeous addition. In fact despite the lack of sleep Mum Josie looked remarkably bright eyed. I must find out what her secret is!! Really can’t wait to see them next April for their next session when I suspect Alfie will be sitting up!
I had a lovely testimonial from the family, thank you! “Our gorgeous little Alfie captured by the wonderfully talented Nicola! The shoot was at Nicola’s studio and she made us feel welcome immediately. She is friendly with a warm personality, patient and we wouldn’t trust anyone else to capture us as our family grows older.”

Are you expecting a baby or just had one? Maybe you are looking for some baby family photography Surrey?
What a lovely time I had photographing baby Oliver and family from Surrey. Oliver loved playing with the autumn leaves in the woods so it was easy to capture him with plenty of smiles! I first captured Oliver when he was just 3 months old so it was fab to catch up and see how much he had grown! It was lovely that Daddy could join this session too. I captured plenty of beautiful moments of the family enjoying precious time together.
They’ve chosen some stunning frames so I can’t wait to deliver them!

I love being a maternity photographer Surrey. It takes me all over my county and to Sussex, Berkshire and South London. Meeting parents-to-be who tend to be in varying levels of excitement and intrepidation! This maternity photographer session took place in Godalming Surrey on a beautiful autumnal day. We obviously took it very easy on our walk together, with plenty of rests and lovely chats. I always say to couples enjoy these last few weeks together. It’s such a special time getting the nursery ready, last minute shopping, packing your hospital bag. Likewise reading up about the birth and hopefully getting some rest too!
Couples are often naturally nervous about the actual birth. Importantly I always try to calm some of these worries and turn the apprehension into impending excitement on finally getting to meet their baby! I had a planned Caesarian with my first child as she was breech. So I did feel a bit cheated by not being able to have a natural birth. My friends were all quite surprised when I said I was elated to be given the chance to have a labour with our second child. It genuinely was one of the best days (ummm 40 hours!) of my life! Yes of course it’s painful. Above all though it really is so amazing to see what your body is capable of and the joy of seeing your baby at the end. The hard journey really does make the pain worth while! So I always like these sessions as I hope I leave my couples excited and ready to meet their baby. Looking forward to the next amazing chapter of their lives!
Baby girl on the way

Clapham, London Baby & Family Photographer
Ooh what a treat to be asked to be the family photographer for not just one but twin baby girls from Clapham, South West London. I was very excited on the drive up, and was thrilled with the way the morning went. The family are gorgeous and so much fun and the girls were as good as gold. One of them even had a little snooze in Mummy’s arms during the morning. It was lovely to have Great Grandma there too, over for a visit from Trinidad. It’s always useful to have an extra pair of hands in the early days….well in fact generally!

Are you looking for a newborn baby photographer Surrey? There are lots of choices to make like when to capture your baby. Whether that should be in your home or a studio and who would suit you best to take the pictures of your precious newborn! I suggest that (ideally!) when you are around 3-4 months pregnant have a look at a few websites. See what style of photography catches your eye. Then talk to a few photographers and get a feeling for how experienced they are, how well you get on with them and that what they offer in terms of frames or canvases or digital files suit your needs and budget. Hopefully the photographer you choose will have plenty of examples on their blog. These should be from past sessions and testimonials so you can get a feel for their style.
Here is an example of one of my recent newborn baby sessions. Just how adorable is this Surrey newborn baby boy that I was asked to photograph at just 10 days new! Baby Edward was a real cutie who posed perfectly for his first photo shoot. This bodes well for when I am booked in to capture him in March next year at 9 months!
Those early few weeks, in fact months are so tiring. But this Mum and Dad were doing so well and I can’t wait to see how much he’s grown in the spring!
Kind Review
I had a lovely testimonial from the family that made my day! “Having Edward’s pictures taken was a really memorable occasion. We wanted to have something special from his early days and Nicola’s creative eye and her expert approach with newborns has provided us with a unique masterpiece that we will treasure forever.”
My pleasure guys, I really enjoyed meeting you all! If you would like more information, please look at my baby page or contact me, many thanks.

Being a newborn photographer Surrey is such a privilege and so much fun! I get to travel all over Surrey, from Godalming to Guildford, Haselmere to Horsham and Woking to Farnham. Meeting gorgeous newborn babies and parents each of whom have their own wonderful and unique story to tell.
I LOVE photographing babies. It’s a combination of that gorgeous newborn baby smell, seeing all those tiny folds and creases. Of course capturing the wonderful growing bond between mummy and daddy and their precious new baby is so rewarding. I am always in awe of these little miracles and seeing them always makes me broody again!
Newborn photography is a unique opportunity to take some wonderful sleepy shots of your baby curled up both on a blanket and in your arms. The baby photography session can take place in the comfort of your own home or you can pop into the studio which is near Guildford in Surrey. You may find it more personal and relaxing to be in the comfort of your home.
Baby photography is also a great time to take some close ups of your baby’s tiny hands and feet with the contrast of your hands against them. In years to come it’ll be hard to remember how tiny they really were! These shots are great to use for announcement cards and generally telling your friends and family about your gorgeous new arrival!
For more information on my newborn sessions, or capturing the first year of your baby’s life check out this page. Or contact me for a chat about all things baby!
I look forward to hearing form you.
