CORNWALL NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

those small, tender moments, A quiet kind of magic.

NATURAL & GENTLE IN-HOME NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY

EVERLASTING memories of the early days.

Those early days of parenthood, whether your first or fifth baby, is an experience unlike any other. The longest, shortest, the best, but the hardest, messy, and magical days of your lives.

As a mother, I intimately understand the preciousness of these fleeting moments, each slipping through your fingers like grains of sand. I know how important it is to document this chapter in your family’s story with emotion over perfection, capturing the beautiful chaos and embracing the quiet, tender moments and everything in between.

These moments with your baby are fleeting, and you’ll want to hold onto them forever.

KIND WORDS

“We now have the most amazing photographs of our little family. I am so happy I found you, Mel, and I cannot wait to see more pictures you capture of me and my family in the years to come.”

– LEAH

Take a moment to pause, slow down, and breathe it all in—this time is just for you.

At home is where your story begins, and memories are made.

Imagine lighting a candle, popping on a dreamy playlist, sipping a hot cup of coffee, your cosy home enveloped in soft light, echoing with the gentle hum of everyday life. It’s here, amidst the familiar comforts of your own space, that your newborn session unfolds, telling the intimate story of your family.

Whether it’s bathing your baby or simply cuddling up together on the sofa, each frame captures your connection and tells a narrative of this chapter. I focus on your little one and what makes them uniquely yours, and your life as a family, not trying to be perfect, but simply being – Because one day, as your child grows, they’ll want to see more than just their newborn selves—they’ll want to see you too and how completely in love you were right from the beginning. They’ll want to remember the warmth of their very first home and the magic found in the ordinary moments of your extraordinary life together. This is your story and deserves to be remembered in its purest, most YOU form.

So, settle in, let go of any worries, and allow yourselves to be fully present in the moment. For in these moments lies the true treasure of your family’s story. I’ll be there to gently guide you every step of the way while keeping things simple, relaxed and oh-so-easy.

QUESTIONS

For newborn sessions that are shot around 1-4 weeks post birth, it’s usual to book whilst you are still pregnant; anytime after your 20-week scan is perfect. If your baby has already been born, I can sometimes fit sessions at shorter notice so please do get in touch. These sessions can take place from birth to 12 months.

Newborn sessions take place within the comfort of your own home.

I recommend neutral colours and keeping it comfy and laid back. Upon booking, you’ll receive a style guide, and I’m always on hand to help. But ultimately, choose outfits that reflect your personal style and make you feel amazing.

Absolutely! Including your partner and children makes the session even more meaningful. This transformative time is a significant milestone for your entire family, and it deserves to be captured and celebrated together.

It’s so important to me that we create the perfect session tailored just for you. Once your session date is confirmed, I’ll send you a welcome guide along with a detailed questionnaire. You’ll also have the option to schedule an online chat with me—bring a cuppa, and we’ll go over all the details together. If you’re feeling a bit nervous, don’t worry—I’ll be there to guide you every step of the way.

You will receive your full edited gallery around 3-4 weeks after your session date. So pour a glass of wine or make a cuppa and make it an experience.
