Natural in-home and outdoor newborn photographer in Bishop’s Stortford.
Gorgeous newborn photography to celebrate your first days together.
A new chapter, and the beginnings of endless possibilities.
There’s something absolutely amazing about holding a tiny person who, just days ago, was growing inside of you, now ready to carve out their own path in the world.
I offer in home and outdoor newborn photography sessions to capture baby’s first days, and although I am based in Bishop’s Stortford, I’m very happy to travel. The newborn bubble is a sacred space and my aim is to capture the details with gentle observation and natural posing.
To tell your story; the love, and the awe.
I use minimal props, and let baby lead the whole session. We will not be clock watching on your photo shoot. If baby needs to be fed and changed (and they will, multiple times!) we ‘ll accommodate that. You are inviting me into your home at the most life changing moment, and I want to honour that fact with a laid back, beautiful experience for you all.

“We’ve had a newborn shoot and family photos with Erin, both of which are perfect. Erin made us all feel at ease, she was so patient when the baby was unsettled. I would highly recommend, we will definitely be back.”
Elizabeth
“Where do I start with Erin? She is a truly wonderful photographer and captured the most beautiful photos of my 8 day old baby boy. She included my 2 older children too and even got a few totally natural ones of me… Erin has a way of putting people at total ease and takes the stress out of anything stressful! Memories that we’ll cherish forever with an album to treasure.”
What to expect from your newborn session.
These are the best days…
I realise that inviting a stranger in to your home when you’re feeling at perhaps your most vulnerable is a massive thing. You’ve just birthed an actual human and now you need to tidy the house, get dressed and smile? Luckily for you, I don’t need you to do any of these. Ideally, getting dressed is a win, but I didn’t leave the house for three weeks after my baby, so who am I to judge?
We will only need the smallest corner of your home to photograph your newest family member, ideally with a big window but you can ignore the mess- this is real, beautiful, messy life we’re capturing. I tidy as we go along if need be. I also bring everything that we will need for your session, including gorgeously soft wraps and the most adorable handmade rompers and bloomers for your newborn. I also have lights if your home is on the darker side.
After booking,
I will send out a guide on what to expect on my arrival, including how to prepare your newborn for their session. I know that babies rarely arrive on time, and I make allowance in my diary for a quick last minute reschedule. Proud siblings are always included, and there is plenty of chance to grab family shots alongside natural solos of baby.
After your photoshoot I edit the photographs and upload to your own private online gallery, for you to choose your favourites. I also offer a printing and framing service should you need some advice on where to hang your wall art!
Newborn packages start at £450
including a baby-led session in the comfort of your own home, or outdoors, and 15 beautifully edited digital images chosen by you.
