Those tiny fingers, sleepy expressions and first cuddles change so quickly. Your newborn session gives you the chance to slow everything down and keep this chapter forever — without worrying about posing, feeding times or whether your baby will settle.
Relax, cuddle your baby and enjoy the moment. I’ll work around them.
Based in my Melrose studio, I welcome families from across the Scottish Borders, Edinburgh, Northumberland and beyond.
Need to feed? We stop.
Baby needs a cuddle? Absolutely.
They don’t want to sleep? That’s completely fine.
Your session is designed around your baby, not a timetable. You can settle into the studio knowing there’s plenty of time for feeding, changing, cuddling and simply being together.

A relaxed session with time for several beautiful portraits and a larger collection to keep and share.

The complete story of these first days.

To secure the booking, there’s a £50 non-refundable deposit payable at the time of booking.
Newborns are unpredictable — and that’s completely fine.
Your session will move at your baby’s pace, so you can relax, enjoy those first cuddles and leave the rest to me.







Booking during pregnancy means we can reserve space around your due date. Once your baby arrives, we’ll arrange the final session date around you and your little one.
Prefer to stay at home with your new arrival? I also offer in-home newborn photography across the Scottish Borders, Edinburgh and the Lothians.
I’ll bring a carefully selected collection of wraps, blankets and simple props to create beautiful, natural portraits in the comfort of your own home.
In-home sessions are perfect for families who would prefer a relaxed experience without travelling during those precious first weeks with their baby.
