Sitter sessions

Yay! Now the smiles, giggles and the personality all start to shine through and you know it’s all been worth it. They are still only babies but they have changed so much since they were born you can hardly believe it!

Sitter sessions are generally taken when your baby is around 6-9 months old. They can sit up independently but are not yet crawling (then the fun really starts…) Now is the time to capture and celebrate those gummy smiles, chubby cheeks and baby pudge!

First Birthday

Yes, that’s a significant milestone for you and your baby, what a lot you’ve both been through! It definitely is a moment to record for all time! My sessions, as you would expect, take place in or around their first birthday, if done beforehand, you’ll be just in time to post your favourites on social media so you can celebrate it with friends and family.

Pre Schoolers

Just before ‘big school’ starts! This is whole new stage of life and the perfect time to capture them as they are getting ready for the next big step!

What to expect from your studio session

Generally sessions involving children aged from 6 months to 4 years take around 40 mins to hour max. Being fast is the name of the game with these photoshoots! Young children and babies at these ages are not known for their patience, so I set up my shots quickly and move on to the next one before they get tired.

Keeping them stimulated is a big part of the shoot. In advance of the session I will probably ask you to let me know some of their favourite tunes so I can get them lined up on the day and allow them to have a little dance or do some hopping to ‘Sleeping bunnies’! If you have any teddies or comforters that are special to them, then I always encourage you to bring them along so when you look back on the photos it’ll remind you of a time when they never wanted to be parted from teddy.

I was nervous about how my two children might behave but I needn’t have worried, Celine made it great fun for the girls. When I saw the photos, I was blown away by what she had achieved. She captured their spirit beautifully and the quality of her work was exceptional. The whole experience was great fun, and the perfect photos brought a tear to my eye!
