Hello lovely! If you’re new here, I’m Lucy – your Maternity, Newborn, Baby, and Family photographer based in York, North Yorkshire. I’m here to share top tips and gorgeous photos to make your parenting journey even more special. Today, let’s chat about why investing in professional baby photography is truly worthwhile.
The expertise and experience a professional brings
Welcoming a new baby is one of life’s most precious moments, and capturing these early days requires a special touch.
As a professional newborn photographer, I have the training and experience to handle your little one safely while creating beautiful, timeless images. I am also first aid trained in newborn, babies and children ensuring I am the safest pair of hands!
From understanding the best lighting techniques to knowing how to soothe and pose newborns gently, my goal is to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for both baby and parents.
Ensuring safe and comfortable poses for your little one
Your baby’s safety is my top priority during our session.
I use gentle posing techniques that support your newborn’s natural flexibility without causing any discomfort. I am wholly baby led – I always tell families that I will do my best to capture all of my signature poses but if baby doesn’t want to be in a certain position (this could be wind or natural discomforts that can arise in those early days due to them growing) then I won’t put them in that position. A happy baby ensures a wonderful experience!
With a controlled studio environment designed for newborns, I maintain optimal temperatures and provide soft, cashmere and high quality props to keep your baby cosy and secure at all times.
High quality images that really do stand the test of time
While smartphones are handy for everyday snapshots, professional photography offers a level of quality that stands the test of time. Look back at your old phone photos and videos and you’ll see how poorly they’ve aged – as technology continues to be better and better, photos and the quality will diminish when not taken with professional grade equipment. It’s a sad fact! All the photos of my baby just three years ago are already starting to appear more and more pixelated.
Using high-end cameras and lenses, I capture the intricate details of your baby’s features, creating stunning images that you’ll cherish forever.
The value of printed heirlooms and albums
In today’s digital age, there’s something incredibly special about holding a printed photograph.
I offer a range of high-quality print products, from beautifully crafted albums to wall art, allowing you to display and enjoy your baby’s portraits daily.
These tangible heirlooms become cherished family treasures, passed down through generations.
Creating lasting memories for generations
Investing in professional baby photography is more than just capturing images; it’s about preserving memories that will be cherished for a lifetime. These photographs will serve as a beautiful reminder of your child’s early days, allowing you and future generations to relive those moments together. The greatest gift you will ever be able to pass to your children and grandchildren!
