How does a baby shoot work?
I want the baby photography session to be fun (or at least enjoyable) for everyone involved. The baby shoot is laid-back and normally takes between one and half and two hours. It’s very much baby-led. Portsmouth Baby photography is unpredictable, which tends to mean we prioritise particular shots you want.
The sessions take place in your home or at a location in Petersfield or Portsmouth – of which there are lots of places suitable for baby photography in our county – places like Butser Hill, Queen Elizabeth County Park, The South Downs, Gunwharf Quays, Port Solent, The Hamble or Solent, or perhaps indoor venues in and around Portsmouth.






What clothes do I need?
I’ll aim at taking at least some photos of baby in just nappies, so on the day of the shoot I ask that you turn your heating up a fraction. I suggest avoiding patterned clothing as in the final image it tends to be distracting.
Do I need anything else?
No. You don’t need props. I have a lots of stuff that I bring to you on the day of our session, although chances are that you’ll have some things that we might try to incorporate – I enjoy the challenge of making a beautiful photograph that includes items of special meaning.
We’ll have chatted beforehand to decide what sort of photos you are looking for. You’ll pay for the session and then have the chance to order prints, framed photos and books.
