A Newborn Photoshoot at Home – One Week Old

There’s something so special about photographing a newborn in those first few days of life. Everything still feels brand new – not just for the baby, but for the parents too. I was recently invited to photograph a lovely family who had just welcomed their baby girl into the world. She was just one week old on the day of the shoot.

We spent most of the morning in the nursery, which had beautiful soft light pouring through the window – perfect for capturing those quiet, intimate moments. The room was calm and cosy, and it felt like exactly the right space for documenting this early chapter.

If you’re expecting a baby and would love to capture those early days in a natural, heartfelt way, I’d love to hear from you. I offer newborn photo sessions across Bristol, Bath, Somerset and Gloucestershire– all in the comfort of your own home!
