I’m so glad you’ve found me at Enchanted Memories Photography in Derbyshire!

Capturing your newborn baby in the first few days of their life is truly the best gift you could ever give to yourself. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity—your baby will never be this small again.

A newborn photoshoot at Enchanted Memories Photography in Swanwick, Derbyshire is an investment worth every penny. These photographs will be treasured for a lifetime.

Why Choose me for Your Newborn Photography in Derbyshire?

  • The Perfect Timing: The window for newborn photography is small. We aim to photograph your baby before they are 23 days old. During these first weeks, babies are still flexible and extra sleepy, making it the ideal time to capture those beautiful, curled-up poses that make newborn photos so special.

  • Experience & Safety: With years of experience in newborn photography, I’m trained to handle, pose, and photograph babies safely. I’ve learned from some of the best newborn photographers in the country to ensure that you receive not only the best photos but the best experience in my purpose-built home studio in Swanwick, Derbyshire.

  • Baby-Led Sessions: Your baby’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. All of my newborn photoshoots are baby-led, which means I’m specially trained to read your baby’s cues, keep them settled, and make sure they are comfortable throughout the entire session.

  • Book Early: I recommend booking your newborn photoshoot around your 20-week scan with a £50 deposit. This secures a session around your due date. Once your baby arrives, we’ll set a date for the session to take place within the first two weeks of their life.

  • Comfort & Relaxation: My studio sessions can take up to four hours to ensure we have plenty of time to settle your baby. You can relax on the sofa while I work my magic, capturing stunning images that you’ll cherish forever.

  • Customized Newborn Photography: During your session, I’ll use several different set-ups tailored to you and your baby. We’ll discuss colour choices and themes when your baby arrives and your session date is booked. Sibling and family photos are included as part of two of my newborn photography packages.

  • Seamless Experience: After your session, I’ll edit the images and deliver them via a watermarked online gallery within 2-3 weeks. You’ll be able to select your favourite photos, which will then be finalised and delivered to you. Any prints included in your package will be delivered directly to your home. We handle everything, so you don’t have to worry about a thing—especially with a newborn to care for!

At Enchanted Memories Photography, we focus on providing a luxurious, stress-free experience. Every detail is taken care of so that you can enjoy these precious moments with your baby. Let us capture your newborn’s first days in Derbyshire, creating timeless memories you’ll cherish forever.

Newborn Photography FAQs

When Should I Book?

You can book your session any time after your 12 week scan. Limited bookings are taken each month to allow for some flexibility with rescheduling if baby arrives early or late.

Although it is best to photograph babies when they are under three weeks old I am happy to do newborn photography sessions up to around 6 weeks, so I will do my best to fit you in, even if you’ve left it a little late to book!

How Do I Book?

Please complete the contact form at the bottom of this page. I will be in touch as soon as I can be.

Can I Bring My Other Kids/ Dog?

Family and sibling photos are included in the Silver & Gold sessions as standard. If you have a dog who is an important part of the family, ask me about bringing them along for a few photographs. 

What Happens If My Baby Wont Sleep?

I have plenty of tricks up my sleeve to ensure your baby will be content and relaxed throughout the session, some babies take longer to settle than others but this is absolutely fine! Whilst they are awake we will capture adorable images of your baby wide eyed!

 

If your baby is wide awake after having a good kick and look around, I will wrap baby up and go onto prop images, wrapping babies, without fail, ALWAYS makes them drift off to sleep, this is because they will be lovely cosy & snuggled up and this reminds them of being back in Mummy's Tummy!

Many of the naked posed shots do require them to be in a deep sleep. It can sometimes take a little while to get but we always get there in the end! – this is why some sessions take 3 hours…or more!!

What Happens If My Baby Wont Stop Crying?

This is very, very rare! I have years of experience photographing newborn babies. If a baby is unhappy it is usually just a process of elimination to work out what the problem is. Sometimes it take a little patience but we always get there in the end.

What Do We Need To Bring With Us?
  • Lots of nappies & wipes.

  • Several bottles if bottle feeding. Baby may seem even more hungry than normal during the session so bring extra!

  • If your baby takes one, please bring a dummy.

  • Any special teddies or heirloom items you may wish to include in some photos.

Do You Provide All The Props And Accessories?

Yes. I have a huge collection of props, backdrops, fabric wraps, tiebacks, bonnets, tiny teddies… You do not need to provide any outfits for baby (unless you wish for them to be photographed in a particular outfit) as they will either be swaddled, partially covered with a blanket or naked.

How to Prepare for Your Newborn Photography Session:

We want you and your baby to feel comfortable and ready for your session at our Derbyshire photography studio. Here are a few simple tips to help you prepare:

  • Feeding Your Baby: To keep your baby sleepy and settled during the session, I recommend feeding them just before we begin.

  • Family Photos: Parents and siblings are welcome to join in for family portraits. We suggest wearing simple, neutral-toned clothing for a timeless and cohesive look.

  • Comfort First: If your baby needs breaks for feeding or changing, we take the necessary time to ensure everyone is comfortable and at ease.

My goal is to make the entire experience relaxed, enjoyable, and memorable for you and your newborn.
