A blog by Milton Keynes Photographer Becki Williams full of photo shoot examples and information for expectant parents and families with young babies in Milton Keynes.
I love it when people bring things from home to include in their newborn portraits. Callie’s mum bought a bunny, which was about the same size as her, a pink flower headband and a pink blanket.
Read MoreWhen 2 month old Ben first came in for his photo shoot he was not having a good day.
Rather than keep pushing him on a day he obviously wasn’t up for it, I got a few photos and then called it a day. I’d rather babies come back when they’re feeling 100% rather than move them around lots on days when they aren’t feeling well.
Read MoreOn the run up to Christmas I decided to challenge myself by venturing into the world of Newborn Portraits on Digital Backgrounds.
This is where I photograph a newborn baby on a simple backdrop and them edit them into a Christmas scene.
Read MoreA few weeks ago, Daisy came for her newborn photo shoot at my house in Hemel Hempstead.
Daisy is my cousin’s baby and the fact my baby cousin now has a baby is simply insane.
(Ok so he’s not quite a baby himself anymore)
A few weeks ago I travelled to Watford to meet Marcus and his family for his Newborn Photo Shoot.
He hadn’t been very well and we had to postpone a couple of times but as soon as he was ready, we booked in a date and I headed over to his house.
Read MoreHoney came in for her photo shoot in Hemel Hempstead when she was around 2 months old.
She has the most beautiful red hair (hence the name!) and was just starting to find her gorgeous smile.
Read MoreFinley and his family live in Harpenden and came to Hemel Hempstead for his newborn photo shoot when he was a couple of weeks old.
Read MoreA few years ago I travelled to meet the most lovely family and their newborn baby Oliver at their house in Harpenden.
In the blink of an eye, Oliver is now 3 and this time I got the pleasure of photographing his new little sister, Eva.
Read MoreHis mum wanted a combination of both posed and lifestyle photos and to include Arthur’s big brother Harry in some of the images.
Read MoreA few weeks ago, little Dev came to me in Hemel Hempstead from Luton for his newborn photo shoot with his mum, dad and big brother.
He had arrived 4 weeks early, and was so smiley. He also made lots of cute noises, specially after he sneezed and had the most amazing hair!
He was teeny tiny but when he stretched out, my goodness was he long!
Model Calls are free photos shoots, which I offer to people for a whole range of reasons. Sometimes I have new props I want to try or new set ups, and other times I want to work to improve a certain pose.
Read MoreWhen Adhiya’s family booked her Newborn Photo Shoot they said that they would like awake photos that captured her personality.
Of course once they said that I was expecting the worlds sleepiest baby to turn up that I couldn’t keep awake, but she was in fact the perfect awake model that her mum and dad had been hoping for.
Read MoreI first met Kitty’s family back in 2015 when I did a Newborn Photo Shoot for her big sister Grace in St. Albans.
I’m getting so many siblings come through my door right now and I am always so excited to receive their emails letting me know they’re expecting baby number two or three.
When Kitty’s mum got in touch she was already a few days old so I booked her in nice and quick so we didn’t miss those first sleepy 5 - 10 days.
Read MoreIf you’ve found your way here because you’re expecting twins - Congratulations!!
If you have any questions about how a Twin Newborn Shoot is different to a photo shoot with one baby, find your answers here.
Read MoreA few weeks ago I was contacted by Carys’s mum and dad and asked to do a lifestyle newborn shoot at their house in St. Albans.
Lifestyle photo shoots are a lovely, natural and unposed alternative to studio newborn photography where the emphasis is on taking relaxed photos of the entire family in your own home.
The photos show a perfect little snapshot of this time in your life.
Newborn Elise came to my house in Hemel Hempstead for her Photo Shoot a few weeks ago and was the perfect little model.
She loved to be wrapped but wasn’t a fan of being on her tummy so I kept her where she was happiest, on her back and her side. Not all newborns like all positions and I never force them into a position that they aren’t happy with (I can tell by the wriggling!)
Read MoreRiley came to me in Hemel Hempstead for his Newborn Photo Shoot back in June.
I had put word out on Facebook that I was looking for newborns between 5 & 10 days old to come in for a free photo shoot so I could perfect a few poses and try out some new set ups.
Read MoreWith his big sisters out for the day, it was just me, him and his mummy and daddy, ready to photograph him in all his newness.
Read MoreI have check lists of things to take places, routes (and back up routes) of where I am going and will leave with enough time to spare that it's highly likely that I will be early.
I'd much rather sit in my car and wait for an appointment than worry about being late (or even worse, actually be late)
The aim of this blog is to answer any question you may ever have about every stage of your newborn shoot - from booking to purchasing your images.
Read MoreI first met the lovely Montgomery family back in 2015 when they were expecting their first son, George. We've done Maternity, Newborn, Christmas, 6 month & 1 year shoots together and it's been really great getting to know them and watching little George grow up.
When they got in touch to let me know they were expecting baby number 2 I was very excited! We discussed everything they wanted from this next newborn shoot and counted down the days till her arrival.
