Relaxed Newborn Photography in the Comfort of Your Own Home
If you've recently welcomed a little one into your family or are eagerly awaiting their arrival, congratulations! Your world is about to be filled with an incredible new chapter.
As a professional Newborn Photographer in the East Midlands, I know just how quickly those early days pass by. As a mother myself, I’ve been blessed to welcome two beautiful babies into my life, so I understand the importance of capturing those precious, fleeting moments - the newborn snuggles, soft yawns, and tiny fingers wrapped around yours.
I specialise in preserving these newborn moments through beautiful, timeless photographs, so you can treasure them forever. Even though you might take countless pictures of your baby, there’s often something missing—the moments where you, as a parent, are in the frame too. That’s where I come in, to ensure your family’s story is beautifully documented, so you’ll have more than just photos to look back on—you’ll have memories that tell a story for years to come.
My Newborn Photography Style
I offer lifestyle newborn and baby photography sessions right in the comfort of your home, to families across Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Staffordshire, and the wider East Midlands. My approach is all about capturing your family’s natural connection—those intimate moments that make this time in your life so special.
I feel incredibly privileged as I step into your “newborn bubble”. You’ll have the freedom to relax and simply be yourselves. I’ll gently guide you through some simple poses, making sure you don’t feel awkward, while also capturing plenty of candid moments. This balanced approach allows me to create beautiful portraits, but with an authentic, relaxed vibe.
I don’t use contrived or uncomfortable poses and I steer clear of props that might distract from the pure beauty of your baby. Instead, I focus on storytelling through natural, authentic, and timeless images—images that reflect the true essence of your growing family.
The experience is wonderfully laid-back, with no rush. You’ll have all the time you need to soak in your newborn, while I quietly document this fleeting chapter of your life through photos you’ll cherish forever.
Let me help you preserve this precious time in a way that feels true to you—authentic, natural, and utterly beautiful.
No Props, No Studio.
This is where the real magic happens.
“Incredible photographer! Neither me and Jon are that confident in front of a camera but Natalie made us feel so at ease and comfortable.

Thank you Natalie, looking forward to our baby girls 1st birthday photos!”

Book Your Newborn Photoshoot Now!
I'd love to hear from you. If you have a date in mind for your newborn photoshoot or have any questions please contact me using the form below:
Does it have to be an at-home newborn photoshoot?
Not necessarily! Depending on the time of year, it is possible to do a newborn or older baby photoshoot outdoors. This can also be incorporated into your at-home newborn or baby photoshoot if you have a garden or outdoor space accessible and would like to capture the beautiful seasonal foliage.
Outdoor Newborn Photoshoot
Outdoor newborn or baby photoshoots are a wonderful way to capture the beauty of the season when you welcomed your little one. If you have a garden, we can step outside to take some serene, natural photos, adding a lovely outdoor element to your at-home newborn gallery.
You can choose a meaningful location around Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, or Staffordshire for your photoshoot—perhaps a spot that holds special significance to you. Popular locations include peaceful parks, local woodlands, or a favourite field for a quiet stroll. I’m also happy to suggest locations that suit the time of year and your baby’s age.
Throughout the session, I take a relaxed, gentle approach, allowing your baby to set the pace. As with at-home shoots, we’ll make sure to allow plenty of time for feeding, settling, and tending to your baby’s needs, ensuring the experience is as calm and stress-free as possible.
At Home Newborn Photoshoot
For your newborn baby photoshoot, you can choose the comfort and convenience of your own home. Capturing precious moments in the place where you’ll create lasting memories adds a unique, personal touch to your photos.
The familiar surroundings allow you to relax, tend to your baby's needs, and take your time to feed and settle them without the pressure of rushing. I’ll step into your newborn bubble, working with the natural light and atmosphere of your space to create beautiful images.
Don’t worry about your home being perfectly styled or magazine-ready—my approach focuses on what matters most: the connection, the love, and the little details. As long as you have widows, and thankfully most homes do - we’ll create stunning, meaningful photos you’ll treasure forever.
