Baby Photography
Just look at this beautiful newborn baby boy. Utterly perfect! Are you searching for a baby photographer Reigate Surrey? I travel all over the surrounding counties capturing babies just like this gorgeous little newborn boy.
What a dreamy session we had. He was very sweet natured, only giving us the odd little squawk when he wanted more food! Which is understandable considering the size of their tiny little stomachs at this stage! I think it’s about the size of a walnut! His mum and dad were doing a brilliant job. Of course the dogs were also intrigued to be getting to know him as well!
It’s always interesting to see how pets get on with new arrivals! I can remember our cats sniffing our babies a lot and being quite afraid of their loud crying. They definitely went down the pecking order in the family!
Package
This family are just starting out on my baby package programme. This includes three photography sessions spaced out over 12 to 18 months. It can start with a bump session or baby session. This family have chosen a newborn session first. Following this, I will catch up with them when the little boys is about 8 months in August in their garden. Then around 17 months in the bluebells woods bear their home. More information about the baby package can be found here. It’s very flexible to suit your needs. You get a gorgeous 18” x 10” frame as a gift at the end of all three sessions. It features a picture from each of your sessions, I lovely memory. You won’t believe how fast they grow!
Of course shoots can be booked as single sessions as well. All sessions include a preparation guide to help you be as ready as possible on the day.
Do get in touch if you would like to chat further. I look forward to hearing from you.

Wow what a fantastic newborn baby photographer Guildford Surrey session we had last month with this cutie! I had already met the family a month before for their maternity session. You may wish to see the PICTURES HERE. So it was lovely to meet up again after hearing the happy news of their little boy’s safe arrival!
I took the pictures in their home so they were relaxed and comfortable. I looked around the home to see where best to take the pictures. This included the bedroom, sitting room and of course the nursery. These proud parents are doing a fantastic job. It was great to include their gorgeous beagle dog who was a great addition in their maternity session. I think he is still figuring out what to make of the new addition to the family!
The family said after the viewing . “Thanks again for coming by and the amazing session! We really had a hard time choosing as there were too many good ones we liked!”
Kind review
They also kindly left me a very generous 5* google review. “We’ve had our pregnancy and newborn photo shoots with Nicola. She’s so friendly, professional, and we absolutely love the style of her photos as well!”
Thank you so much guys it’s been a privilege to capture your journey. You’re proving to be wonderful parents and I do hope we will all meet again soon! Keep in touch.

This means you have everything to hand, it’s nice and easy and your memories will be more personal. I would be delighted to chat to you about a session so do CONTACT ME.

Are you looking for a Guildford home baby photography shoot? I travel all over Surrey and beyond capturing parents with their beautiful new baby.
I couldn’t wait to share this beautiful new baby boy! He was born last month to his very proud parents. What a cutie he is! The photography session was undertaken at home. This ensured that the family were relaxed and had everything they needed around them. More importantly the pictures include their gorgeous home. It was so special taking some pictures in his beautiful nursery. I love the way they had decorated the room with a safari theme. In addition I was especially impressed with the beautiful crocheted giraffe that his mummy had made!
I usually take the pictures in rooms that you enjoy spending time with the baby. For example this would be your bedroom, a nursery if you have one, and the sitting room. I like to take pictures of the baby by themselves, with each of the parents and you all together.
It’s great to capture the detail like their tiny hands and feet. In years to come you won’t remember how small they were!
If you have other children they are also welcome to join in. Likewise we had some pictures with this family’s cat and also their dog! Our furry friends are of course very much part of the family! A new arrival sometimes causes conflict. However this family’s cat just seemed rather inquisitive!
Next Steps
If you are looking for some pictures of your baby at home, please do contact me. I would be delighted to explain how the session works. Each session is tailored around your needs. If you would like to see more about my baby sessions please see my baby information page. I look forward to hearing from you.

Are you looking for a Guildford maternity photographer? I cover all of Surrey and beyond.
This gorgeous couple travelled from Highgate in North London for their maternity session with me.
They are expecting their first child in a couple of months. I am excited that they have booked into my baby package. This includes three sessions taken over 12 months or so. So the maternity one is their first session, the second will be after the baby is born. The third one will be taken at around six months, nine months or a year.
We had a gorgeous morning gently walking through the bluebells. The mummy-to-be also took the opportunity to have a couple of clothes changes. I like to encourage this so that you have the opportunity to show your bump or not, and add some variety. You’re also welcome to bring something sentimental, like this family’s baby book.
Because the family live so far away I did an online gallery for them to choose from. I normally prefer to do in person viewings in the studio. It allows you to see the pictures on the big screen and see lots of examples of frames on the walls. My software also enables you to choose your favourites more easily them from a gallery. However if someone does live too far away I offer a gallery and also a zoom call to help them choose .
It was lovely to hear that the couple were pleased with the pictures after seeing the gallery. ‘We absolutely loved the collection’.
I’m so pleased and I can’t wait to hear your news once the baby arrives. Hopefully not long now.
What next

Are you searching for Baby Photography Godalming Surrey? I would love to tell you more about my baby photography sessions. These usually place in the comfort of your home, especially for younger babies. But the choice is yours.
This family are very special to me. This is because they have taken up my baby programme for each of their beautiful daughters. The baby programme involves three photography sessions during the first 12-18 months of your baby’s life. So I have had the privilege to originally meet them when they were pregnant with their first. Now three little girls later I am back to capture their third arrival that they say ‘completes their family’.
The older sisters were very pleased with the latest arrival. With some encouragement to be very gentle with baby, we got some gorgeous sibling shots. I also love the all family shots which were taken on the comfort of the parent’s bed.
Whilst Mummy and Daddy had some pictures with the baby, the older girls read their favourite books and took in all that was going on! They were then taken out into the garden to play followed by time in their wigwam. It’s absolutely fine to add in pictures of older siblings not just the new baby. I am with you for a couple of hours or so, so there is plenty of time to capture everyone. Especially as there are usually multiple breaks for feeding!
If you would like to read more about baby photography sessions please do check out my information page or baby blog.
Next Steps
Or contact me to chat it though. If you can, try to plan ahead when booking sessions as my diary tends to get booked up in advance. If it’s a last minute newborn I will try my best!

Baby and family photographer Surrey
It was such a pleasure to undertake this Baby and family photographer Surrey shoot a couple of weeks ago. The family had contacted me in early October requesting some baby pictures for their beautiful little boy who was coming up for six months.
Unfortunately we had to delay the shoot at first as I was isolating at home. We finally managed to squeeze in a date between the end of my isolation and the beginning of lockdown 2.0!
In preparation before the shoot, I shared with them various other baby sessions that I had done. This was to give them some ideas as to what they were looking for. The family chose a particular style that they liked. This was some natural pictures of their son at home. Followed by some family pictures outdoors.
It was such a treat to be out of the house, working and with one of my favourite genres….babies! What a cutie he was. He was as good as gold when we were taking the pictures, very smiley and observant. Taking it all in!
The family chose Guildford Castle grounds for the family pictures which was looking beautiful in the autumnal light. Where we shoot is very much up to you (although I am happy to make suggestions). Perhaps there is a favourite place you like to go? Baby sessions often include shooting time in your home too if you wish.
Kind Review
“Those photographs are everything. Thank you so much. Our family are going to love their Christmas presents. It’s going to be so hard to choose between them for our house!”
My pleasure – thank you of choosing me!

It’s such an honour to be a baby photographer Guildford Surrey. I travel all over Surrey, Berkshire, Sussex and South London meeting families embarking on this exciting journey. I get to meet so many little bundles of joy, so precious and tiny, shiny and new! This includes one of Surrey’s latest additions …baby R from Godalming near Guildford. He was such a good baby and we are all thrilled with the results! It’s lovely to get some shots of your baby awake and asleep. Of your baby by themselves, with each of you. Of course family shots are a must too. Furthermore you may wish to bring a few sentimental items too like a teddy, blanket or booties knitted by Grandma!
Baby sessions can be either done at the studio or in the comfort of your own home. The choice is yours. Here is an example of a home session that will help you to consider your options. Sometimes people feel more relaxed when you are in their own home.
Don’t forget to plan ahead. My diary often gets booked up weeks ahead. Although I will try my best to fit in a last minute request too. Newborn sessions tend to be best in the first couple of weeks. Other lovely milestones are 3,6, 9 and 12 months. You may be interested in reading more about my baby package. Here is the baby information page.
Gift Voucher
If you are looking for a special gift for your loved one, a friend or your parents, why not consider one of my gift vouchers. They can be used for a baby or family portrait session anytime. Let me capture some precious memories that will last longer than a bread maker or baby clothes! Do contact me to discuss further.

It was such fun being the Godalming Surrey baby photographer for this session for one of my regular families. I have had the pleasure of photographing them five times now. I started documenting their journey when they were pregnant with her first daughter.
They undertook my baby photography program which involves three shoots in the first 18 months of your baby’s life. It can start with a newborn session or even a maternity session before your baby arrives. If you prefer of course you can book ad hoc photography sessions.
We undertook this baby and family session down by the river in Godalming not far from their home. It’s a quiet relaxed place with plenty of interesting places for pictures. The girls loved it.
For those of you who know your parks and gardens may recognise the fact that in the first block of pictures there are a few at Wisley Gardens! This is because on the day of the shoot the forecast was for showers.
Quite rightly the weather is a popular topic of conversation when clients are enquiring about a session with me. My thoughts are generally that if there might be the odd light shower we may go ahead. However anything that looks more persistent or heavy we tend to postpone. I usually ask you to make the final decision to make sure you are comfortable to carry on.
On this particular morning it looked like there would be considerable showers about. However the family said they would go to Wisley even if we didn’t do the shoot. So I thought I might as well join them and just see what we could get on the day! So we had lots of fun but only for about half an hour. Then everyone looked a bit wet so I left them to enjoy their morning together. We joined up again the following morning when thankfully the Sun was out and not a raindrop in sight!
If you would like to read more about family or baby sessions follow the links. If you’d like to chat further I would be delighted to hear from you so please do contact me by phone or contact form. I look forward to hearing from you.

I really loved being the Guildford Surrey baby photographer for this family a couple of weeks ago. The family are booked onto my baby package.
This means that they will have three shoots in the first 12 to 18 months of their child’s life. Their gorgeous little boy had grown so much since their newborn shoot which you can see here.
He is utterly delightful. So happy and content it was clear his glamorous Mummies are doing an amazing job! At just one, he was full of character. Even walking a few steps, although a little reticent to show me on the day! Isn’t that often the way! He was very talkative with his baby chat. We weren’t quite sure what he was saying but he definitely knew!
We had a lovely time walking around the gardens. They were looking magnificent with so many bright summer flowers. The parents had brought along some of the little boy’s toys. So it was delightful to see him playing with his favourite things. It’s so nice to capture him with his toys so that they can remember what he was into in years to come.
Perhaps you would like to bring toys or maybe a favourite book? It helps to relax the child and enjoy some natural family time.
Next Steps
If you would like to read more about my family sessions then please do see my family information page. Alternatively you could see my blog posts for examples of previous sessions. If you would like to know what it’s like from a client’s point of view, see my testimonials. Or you could check out my Google reviews. I am proud to have over 100 five-star reviews now!
So do get in touch to discuss your family needs. I very much look forward to hearing from you. Many thanks.

It brings me such pleasure to share with you this baby photo shoot Guildford that I took last year. I’m using the time we have at home to catch up with blogs from some of last year’s sessions that I never had time to write. Quite often I’m so busy with shooting and editing, I don’t have time to share the beautiful pictures that I take.
I absolutely loved this session from last year that was with one of my favourite families who were celebrating the birth of their second daughter. As you can see she is an absolute peach! The whole family are delighted with the new addition.
We took the pictures in their own home so they were nice and relaxed with all their own things around them. With baby sessions you’re welcome to come to the studio or be at your own home. I tend to think being at your home is easier for you.
Looking for a baby shoot?
If you’re looking for baby photography at the moment, I recommend waiting until we have more freedom of movement. I think baby sessions might be tricky if I’ve got to stay more than 2 m away from you if outside and I couldn’t enter your home or you mine. So if you’ve got a newborn baby or a small baby get in touch now as we will look at dates from July onwards for your shoot. The weather will be warm I’m sure and we can do some beautiful pictures outside in a location of your choice.
If you would like to see examples of past baby sessions do check out my baby blogs for more information on my baby page. I’m still working from home so feel free to give me a call or send me an email too. I look forward to hearing from you.
