Those tiny fingers. Those sleepy little stretches. The softest little sighs and that newborn smell you wish you could bottle forever.
Your baby will only be this tiny once.
The first few weeks of your baby’s life can feel like a beautiful blur of cuddles, feeds, sleepless nights and wondering where the time has gone. Before you know it, those tiny newborn features begin to change, the little hands start to fill out and the baby you have been holding so carefully is growing before your eyes. That’s where I come in.
At Lisa Scott Photography, I specialise in creating beautiful, natural newborn photographs that capture all those little details you never want to forget. My newborn sessions are relaxed, gentle and completely baby-led, giving you the time to slow down and simply enjoy this incredibly special moment in your lives.
Whether this is your first baby or your growing family already has little ones running around, I want your photographs to tell your story — the tiny details, the beautiful connection and the love that fills your family.
Because one day, you’ll look back at these photographs and realise just how little they really were.
Let’s capture those first precious moments before they become memories.
“Lovely experience. Lisa was amazing and made the baby and both of us feel completely at ease. She captured some lovely photographs, and I would definitely recommend her. ❤️”
— Jay Dee, Google review
I believe your newborn photography experience should be just as special as the photographs themselves.
My newborn session fee is £65. This includes a relaxed, baby-led photography session lasting approximately one to two hours and one 8×6″ professional print of your choice.
If your baby is unsettled or needs additional time for feeding, cuddling, changing or settling, there is never any rush. We will always work at your baby’s pace.
After your session, you will be invited back to the studio for a viewing and ordering appointment. You can choose your included 8×6″ print and decide whether you would like to purchase any additional photographs or products from my price list.
Additional digital images, prints and products are available to purchase separately.
For my complete product and pricing guide, please get in touch and I’ll be happy to send you all the details.
If you’re expecting a little one, I’d love to hear from you and help you plan your newborn session. Those precious first days really do pass far too quickly.
I recommend getting in touch and booking your newborn photography session during your pregnancy, ideally around your 20-week scan. This gives us plenty of time to chat about your session, answer any questions you may have and make sure I have availability around your due date.
I completely understand that your due date is only an estimated date. Babies have a wonderful habit of arriving when they’re ready! When you book, I simply reserve a space around a week after your due date. Once your little one arrives, just let me know and we can arrange the exact date for your session.
Newborn sessions are ideally photographed within the first couple of weeks after birth, when your baby is still very sleepy and curled up, making it a wonderful time to capture those tiny newborn details.
But please don’t worry if your baby has already arrived and you haven’t booked yet. It’s never too late to get in touch. If I have availability, I will always do my best to fit you in.
If you’re expecting your little one and would love to capture those precious first days, get in touch today to secure your newborn session. Your baby will never be this tiny again, and these are memories you’ll treasure for years to come.
Absolutely nothing fancy is needed! You don’t need to spend money buying special outfits for your newborn photography session. I have a beautiful selection of soft, simple newborn outfits, wraps and accessories available for you to choose from, all carefully selected to photograph beautifully.
For many of my newborn images, I love keeping things simple. Soft wraps, delicate textures and neutral tones allow your baby to be the focus of the photograph and really show off all those gorgeous little details: their tiny fingers, button nose, sleepy expressions and impossibly tiny toes!
Before your session, we’ll have a chat about the colours and style you love, so I can make sure everything we use fits the look you’re hoping for. Whether you prefer soft and neutral, something a little more classic, or a touch of colour, we’ll create a collection of images that feels personal to you and your family.
And don’t worry if your baby decides they don’t want to wear anything at all! Newborns are very much in charge during their session. If they need feeding, cuddling, changing or simply some time to settle, we take our time and go at their pace.
You are also very welcome to bring along a special blanket, teddy, outfit or another meaningful item you’d like included in a photograph. These little personal touches can make your images even more special and become treasured memories in years to come.
Most importantly, come as you are and let me take care of the rest. You have enough to think about as a new parent — choosing the perfect newborn outfit doesn’t need to be one of them!
Absolutely! Your newborn session isn’t just about your baby. It’s about capturing your family and the incredible connection you have with one another.
I always encourage parents to be involved in the session, even if you’re feeling tired, nervous or perhaps not quite feeling like you’re ready to be in front of the camera. I promise, you don’t need to know how to pose or worry about getting everything perfect. I’ll gently guide you through it and keep things natural and relaxed.
Some of my favourite newborn photographs are the ones that show the connection between a parent and their baby: the tiny hand wrapped around your finger, your baby nestled against your chest, or simply the way you look at your new little person.
Siblings are welcome too, and I love capturing those first special moments between brothers and sisters. Whether they’re excited to meet their new baby, a little unsure about sharing the attention, or simply being their wonderfully energetic selves, we’ll capture their personalities and the beginning of their new relationship.
We’ll also take photographs of the whole family together, as well as individual photographs of baby, parents and siblings. These images become incredibly precious as your children grow.
And please don’t worry if your older children don’t sit perfectly still or follow every direction—they’re children, not professional models! We’ll work around them and keep things fun and relaxed.
My aim is to create a beautiful collection of photographs that tells the story of your family at this very special moment in your lives.
Years from now, you’ll be able to look back and remember not just how tiny your baby was, but how your whole family felt in those first precious days together.
Newborn photography is definitely not something to rush! Your baby is in charge, so I allow plenty of time for feeding, cuddles, changing, settling and those little moments when your baby simply needs to be close to you.
A newborn session usually takes between one and two hours. However, if your baby is unsettled or needs additional time for feeding, cuddling, changing or settling, there is never any rush. Every baby is different, and we will always work at your baby’s pace.
There is no pressure to keep your baby settled just because we’re taking photographs. If your little one is hungry, we stop for a feed. If they need a cuddle, we have a cuddle. If they need a nappy change, we take a break. And if they decide they would rather have a little cry, that’s okay too!
Your baby sets the pace.
I want your newborn session to feel relaxed and enjoyable rather than like you’re watching the clock. You can sit back, enjoy some cuddles and watch me capture all those tiny details that you’ll want to remember forever.
It’s a good idea to allow a little extra time around your session rather than booking anything immediately afterwards. There is no need to rush off, this is your time to slow down and enjoy your new baby.
So come along, relax and let me take care of the photography. The only thing you need to worry about is bringing your beautiful little person!
