Newborn Photographer - Scottish Borders

Those first days are tender, emotional and often pass in a blur.


Newborn photography is a way to gently slow things down and preserve this fleeting chapter — the tiny details, the quiet moments and the connection between you and your baby.

A calm, baby-led experience

Newborn sessions are calm, unhurried and completely baby-led.


There’s no pressure for your baby to sleep, pose or behave in a certain way. Sessions move at your baby’s pace, with plenty of time for feeding, cuddles and settling.


My role is to create a relaxed environment, guide things gently, and take care of the details — so you can simply focus on your baby.

Natural, timeless images

My newborn photography style is simple and natural, focusing on soft light, gentle tones and real connection.


Rather than heavily posed images, sessions centre around your baby just as they are, capturing the tiny details you’ll want to remember long after these days have passed.

🌿 When to book your newborn session

Newborn sessions are best booked during pregnancy to ensure availability.


They usually take place within the first 14 days, when babies are naturally sleepier and more settled, but every baby is different and sessions are always guided by your baby’s needs.


Sessions can take place in my Melrose studio or in the comfort of your home, depending on what feels right for your family.

My studio in Melrose, Scottish Borders is warm, calm and thoughtfully set up for newborns and new parents.

Newborn Photography FAQs

Everything you need to know before booking your newborn photography session in the Scottish Borders

That’s completely normal. Sessions are relaxed and unhurried, with time for feeding, cuddles and settling.


That’s completely fine. Babies never read the calendar 😊

Your session date is always flexible and adjusted once your baby is born — just let me know when you’re home and ready.

Simple, neutral clothing works best. I’ll send guidance before your session.

Absolutely.

Parent and sibling images can be included depending on the package you choose. These are often some of the most meaningful photos from the session.
