    Our take on newborn photography, capturing those magical first few weeks, exactly as they happen. 
    Tiny feet, tiny ears, tiny noses.
    In those first few weeks (even months!) all baby needs is the comfort of their parent's arms and so our fourth trimester photoshoots aim to keep you and baby close and comfortable throughout. The best bit? You don't even need to leave the house - we come to you.

    About Me

    I'm Sarah-Lou, Mum to a wild toddler and wife to a busy Paramedic. Before having my little girl I was a Midwife, a profession I loved very much, however I made the decision to take a career break so that I could raise my family. I have always had a passion for normal birth and believe that a woman is her most powerful on the day she gives birth; becoming a birth photographer was a real calling for me and I love being able to capture those sacred moments. I believe my in-depth understanding of birth physiology helps me in my role as a birth photographer and blending into the background to protect the birthing environment is very important to me. Feel free to get in touch and ask any questions you might have; I look forward to meeting you and your birthing team.
