Newborn Portraiture

Leading Newborn Photographer based in Sandbach, Cheshire – Northwest UK.

Having a baby is one of the most important, life-changing moments that can happen to you. It’s a new chapter of your family’s story unfolding. My newborn sessions are about celebrating that precious moment in all it’s wonder through the art of photography.

In my cosy home studio in Sandbach, I specialise in creating stunning, artful images that highlight your baby’s natural beauty and the love unique to your family.  Your photographs will be the centre of attention in your home, a real talking point and they will be passed down from generation to generation.

My work goes beyond photography. I’m a total perfectionist and I strive to craft a striking collection of images bespoke to your family as well as capturing every detail at this special time. My creativity, colour schemes, textures and most important of all – care for your baby, are what sets me apart from other newborn photographers. I love nothing more than creating something no-one has every seen before and I can’t wait to tell your family’s story through my art.

As a mum myself and a seasoned newborn photographer, I’ve been called a ‘baby whisperer’ more times than I can count. Parents often joke about taking me home with them—rest assured, your little one is in safe, experienced hands, and I’ll handle them with the same care and patience as I would my own.

Why choose me as your photographer?

• Award-Winning Expertise: My accolades, including Newborn Photographer of the Year and Master Craftsman qualification, guarantee a session handled with skill, care, and attention to detail.
• A Focus on You: I only book one session per day, ensuring your experience is relaxed, personalized, and entirely focused on your family.
• My Beautiful, Private Studio: Located in Sandbach, my studio is a calm and welcoming space with excellent parking and transport links.
• Artistry and Heart: I don’t just take photos—I create art. Every image is crafted with passion, precision, and a deep understanding of your story.
• Bespoke experience: My pricing is as flexible as your session – you decide on your priorities and budget.

What this means for you

When you choose Little Primrose Photography, you’re investing in an experience that guarantees:

• A safe, comfortable environment for your newborn.
• A session tailored to your family’s unique story.
• Expert advice at every step – from your photoshoot to your gallery viewing.
• Timeless, beautifully crafted images and products that will become cherished family heirlooms.

I would be honoured to capture this special time for you.

Let’s create something beautiful together.

When should I book my Newborn Session:

Most customers book their session before baby arrives, after their 20 week scan.  I just take a £100 deposit to book and this comes off your package price. However, I know life never goes to plan and babies always surprise us! Therefore, I limit how many newborns I take a month so that I can usually accommodate all photo shoots – just get in touch to enquire!

How long will my Newborn Session take?

If you’ve decided to go for my Heirloom Newborn Session, it will usually take between 2-3 hours because we allow time for baby to be settled and comfortable. I completely understand that new Mums and Dads are keen to return to the comfort of their routine and I try to gather images for a complete collection as quickly as possible but you should come to the shoot with the mindset that it will take as long as it takes dependant on how baby is that day.

If you are looking for a shorter shoot and are happy to prioritise specific images or setups instead of going for the ‘complete experience’ then check out my Signature Newborn Session as this is a more focussed shoot which takes 1.5hours maximum.

Important Information

Pricing

When you invest in a newborn session with me, it’s more than just a photoshoot. It’s a bespoke experience from beginning to end and I will guide you through the whole process. I take a £100 deposit to secure your due date or session date if baby is already born, and this comes off your package price.

I offer two different sessions: Heirloom or Signature – both of these packages will allow plenty of time with me in my studio to create a fantastic gallery of images and both of these sessions include a selection of digital images in with the price. I know how important it is for you to really ‘own’ your images and that is why I like to include digitals alongside the session.

When you arrive at my studio you’ll also see the fantastic collection of frames, wall art and albums that are hand-made in the UK by my professional supplier.  Together we will create a stunning collection of images,  presented in the best possible way for your family and home.

Below is a brief overview of the two different shoot types that I offer for your Newborn Session. If you’d like to find out in more details what’s included in each package please feel free to contact me and I’d be happy to email you my full price guide and/or setup a telephone consultation.

Heirloom Newborn Session – £700

The Heirloom Package is designed for families who want it all—a comprehensive session that captures every precious detail of your newborn’s first days.

It’s a 2-4 hour studio session and will cover everything from family portraits, artistic-one-off-images, macro-shots of baby’s perfect details, photos with baby wrapped up and photos of baby nude or in an outfit and gently posed on my posing table.

The Heirloom Package is a complete experience, giving you a beautiful collection of images to cherish for a lifetime – it includes 12 high-resolution digital images to keep and share, chosen from a gallery of 35+ images.

Signature Newborn Session – £400

My Signature Package is a shorter, focused session perfect for families who want beautiful, timeless images in a more tailored way.

It’s up to 1.5 hours in my studio and will prioritise the shots you really want – it might be family photos, wrapped photos or those beautiful posed shots that capture the perfect newborn scrunch. We will choose the images you want to achieve first and go from there. Of course these images will still be of the very highest quality and I’ll always get my macro lens out to grab those tiny detail shots.

The Signature Session is perfect for families who want a more focused experience while still enjoying the artistry and quality of bespoke newborn photography – it includes 5 high-resolution digital images to keep and share, chosen from a gallery of 15+ beautiful photos.

What happens after my shoot?

After your shoot I’ll often edit a little sneak peek so you can share it early with your friends and family so you can all get excited to see the whole gallery! This is usually on the same day as your shoot.

Once I’ve finished editing your images, I love to invite you to return to my studio so I can present your gallery in a stunning showcase slideshow. This is the time where we will choose which images you’d like to have as part of your package and it’s also a great opportunity to chat about wall art, albums and framing. I have some stunning examples from the best professional print supplier in the UK and I’d be happy to arrange printing your images for you.

It’s best to have a look around your home in advance and think about how you’d like to display your images whether it’s in an album to be shared and passed down; wall art and frames to decorate your home; or just digital images to share and print yourself. I’ll help you create a bespoke collection of products that feels perfect for your family.
