Thank you for your interest in a newborn photo shoot with Clare Long Photography. I would be delighted to capture your newborn baby during one of my bespoke newborn photography sessions.

The first few weeks of a newborn's life passes by so quickly, in an ever changing blur of milky smiles, sleepless nights and the best cuddles you could ever wish for. Photographing your baby at this time provides you with the precious memories of how small your baby once was, because the old cliche is true - they grow so very quickly.

Newborn sessions are best suited to babies between 5 days and 3 weeks old. All sessions are baby led, meaning I take the time to ensure baby is completely comfortable throughout the session, with extra feeds, cuddles and soothing whenever needed. The shoot is entirely at baby's pace, my aim is for you to have a wonderful experience watching the session, your baby in beautiful set ups and poses, you relax, whilst I capture these memories for you.

Each session is tailored to you and your baby, your preference of colours and poses are noted prior to the session so we can ensure that your love each and every one of your timeless images. 

All sessions are held in my cosy, purpose build studio at my home address in Sidcup, Kent.

There is no need to choose your package prior to seeing your final images, approximately 2 weeks after your session you will be invited back to the studio to view and order your images and wall art.

Please contact us as soon as possible after your 12 week scan to book using your due date. Once baby arrives we can then arrange the best date for you to come to the studio for your session.
​
There is a £65 session fee payable to secure your session - I only take a set number of newborn sessions each month to ensure I can accommodate babies, whenever they choose to arrive! This session fee is separate to the image packages below.
