Dear mums to be and new mums, first of all thank you so much for your interest! I appreciate you taking your time and looking at my newborn gallery. I just wanted to say a few words before you start scrolling down. I have been doing photography for  a good while, over a decade now, first  it was just a  hobby, then a freelance and finally as a business. I can’t even call it a business really, that is rather curt and dry word! Doing family and newborn photography is my passion, my love and my path. I take utmost care in everything I do in the studio be it a shooting process I always prepare for and think through days before the shoot, ordering bespoke props and outfits for my little models or holding your little baby in my hands as I am about to capture another lovely memory. Newborns are special to me, this is the most exciting time for me as a photographer when you bring your precious bundles into my studio. Every baby is different, I use different props, poses, colour schemes, wrapping techniques but one thing remains the same every time I photograph a new baby. It’s loving care I treat them with. It’s also a feeling of trust and security I want all parents to have when they step inside my studio. And I think I achieved that well. I am fully baby led, I will never do any pose or set up where your baby will be uncomfortable or won't want to do it. I have also been trained in safety for newborns with paediatric nurse, I simply know what baby wants and needs and I know how to make your baby comfortable, content and safe 

Please note that the best time to photograph a new baby are the first 5-14 days of their life. This is ideal timing as the babies are the sleepiest and very settled , they are also more flexible and less alert when transitioning from pose to pose.

Having said that and I’ll repeat myself - every baby is unique, sometimes they can be as sleepy and dreamy when they are 3-4-5 weeks but then again there’s a possibility there will be some photos when your baby is wide awake staring at me wondering - oh and who is she?!  I will never turn down an older baby but you should be prepared  that we might need to switch to easier and more natural posing if this is what your little one is willing to do. Again - I am fully baby led

So, thanks again for looking and reading this message, I will be more than happy to chat if you have any further questions or concerns, just send me a quick message here or on my instagram!

Best wishes and lots of love 

Natalia
