Designed especially for families who have missed the ‘two week window’ or would prefer to wait until their baby is a little older to visit the studio. These sessions capture a set of beautiful, natural family and baby portraits so you can remember this squishy newborn phase forever. Having a new baby is a rollercoaster ride of new experiences and emotions. Those early days can pass in a blur and before you know it your baby is becoming more alert, getting to know the world around them, and showing you their delightful little personality. Many families start to think about a newborn photo shoot at this stage, but often find that they’ve passed the ‘ideal window’ for posed newborn photos when your baby is more sleepy and naturally likes to curl up in the fetal position. My older newborn sessions mean that you don’t have to miss out. This session focuses on the newborn photographs that are suitable for older babies. Capturing a beautiful set of baby pictures to freeze this special moment in time. For more info & what's included, please message.

COVID19 STUDIO GUIDELINES
With the current Covid situation in High Peak, I feel it is not the right time to ease any safety protocols on 19th July.
At present High Peak is seeing some of the highest levels of COVID – the largest number of cases in the last week through all three waves of the pandemic.
On Monday I will continue to follow my current model of service and operation, I will still be wearing a face mask and even though it will not be legal I would appreciate you wearing one too please, due to my studio being in my home. I will still be cleaning down all my surfaces and props etc... I'm doing my best to protect you, myself & my family as much as possible, I have had both vaccines myself.
I feel this is the responsible thing to do for our community and will continue to monitor the situation.
Thank you for your understanding
I appreciate this is a very unusual time for us all, and not being able to work in the same way as before will be very hard, as the type
of photography session will also be very limited, as will the number of people I can have in my studio at any one time, due to my studio
being in my home. Availability will also be a lot less so I would like to thank you in advance for your patience during this time.
STUDIO GUIDELINES AND PRECAUTIONS FROM 19th JULY 2021:
BEFORE - Handwashing before and after a session has always been essential, as was washing props such as outfits and fabrics between
each session, and a good clean of the studio.
ADDITONAL PRECAUTIONS - Hand sanitizer available for clients and myself to use, face masks and only one client per day.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Please read the following before coming to the studio, as these might be updated regularly with new information. To keep myself and
you safe the following must be STRICTLY followed.
*
ILLNESS - If someone in you're household has been unwell in the last 72 hours or if someone who you have been in contact with outside
your household, please rearrange you're session
(no extra charge unless you have had to rearrange a cake smash booking, please contact me for details).
Please note, I will also postpone a session if myself, or a member in my household also has been unwell.

No refunds will be made but any session effected will simply be re-schduled. Going forward, all remaining balances MUST be paid via
bank transfer a few days (or once your little one has arrived, for newborn sessions) before you're session is due
(even if you have to re-schedule, remaining balance MUST be paid please see my T&C about booking fees/session fees)
no cash will be exchanged.
LIMITED SESSIONS - Sessions will be limited to 1 a day with at least 24hrs between each client.
NEWBORN SESSIONS - Only mum & baby will be allowed in the studio during the session. If you have gone for the Full Newborn Session & would like sibling/family shots done,
these will be done at the end of your session and I ask that dad or a close family member/friend brings siblings for the last 20 mins.
PORTRAITS -
Max of 6 people only for now. Masks MUST be warn upon arrival please... they can be taken off once you are in the studio area for your photos.
CAKE SMASH SESSIONS: Please bring plenty of wipes, towels & maybe a spare pair of clothes for yourself... parents tend to get just as messy!
