WELCOME TO ALICE JAMES PHOTOGRAPHY

Specialist Newborn Photoshoots Hitchin, Hertfordshire

Are you looking for a newborn photographer around Hitchin, Hertfordshire?

Do you want beautiful images of your newborn taken by a specialist newborn photographer?

Do you want your newborn photography experience to be a calm, relaxed experience?

Then let me introduce myself!

My name is Angie and I create beautiful, timeless memories of your family in my home studio.

Blink, and your tiny bundle of joy transforms into a curious little explorer. Newborns change at an astonishing pace, and those early moments are truly one-of-a-kind. In the blink of an eye, the delicate features, tiny fingers, and adorable expressions evolve, creating memories that last a lifetime.

Why Choose Me?

Newborn photoshoots with me are calming, relaxed affairs.  I keep things calm and take things slow.

There are no lengthy preparation instructions, no enforced feeding schedules. Just you, and your baby.

I don’t spend hours trying to get your baby into a “perfect” pose – your baby is perfect just the way they are.

My baby-led workflow ensures your baby is content at all times, which leads to beautiful images.

Relax in my home studio and watch me create beautiful memories for you to treasure forever.

Why is it best to photograph your baby within the first 3 weeks?

Newborns change very rapidly within their first few weeks of life, quickly changing from sleepy, curly newborns to awake,  alert babies.  In the first 3 weeks, babies are more likely to sleep through their session, allowing me the best chance of providing you with beautiful images of your baby.

How do I book a newborn photoshoot?

Firstly, fill in our contact form below and let us know when your due date is.  If we have availability and you would like to secure a session, we will take a £50 non-refundable deposit.  This deposit is deducted from your chosen package which you will choose after your session has taken place

What if my baby is late?

As I’m sure you’ve heard, babies rarely arrive on their due date! In fact, only 4% of babies arrive on their actual due date. For this reason, we do not book in a specific date at the time of booking.  All ask is that you let me know as soon as possible after your baby has been born so that I can give you the most flexible date options within the first 14 days.

Where will the photoshoot take place?

All newborn photoshoots take place in the comfort of my home studio based in Fairfield Park.  I have a large comfortable space with a professional light set up. To find out more about the space please see about me.

How long will the photoshoot take?

A newborn photoshoot is entirely baby led and as such, can take 3-4 hours.  This allows time for lots of cuddle breaks, nappy changes and feeding time.  We will go at your baby’s pace and I will never rush them into a pose.  I take a calm, slow approach.  You are welcome to bring something to do – a book to read, a tablet to watch Netflix or even catch up on a bit of sleep!

How many images will I get?

I aim to provide a full gallery containing 20-25 carefully selected images for you to choose from.  You are then able to choose how many images you wish to purchase – I have packages containing, 5, 10, or all the images included.  The final decision on how many images you keep it up to you.

When will my images be ready?

I aim to have your images ready for viewing around 14 days after your session.  After your viewing, please allow a further 14 days for your order to arrive and be ready for collection.

Can I purchase additional products?

In addition to our packages, you can also purchase additional prints and wall art.  If you are interested in these we can discuss this at your viewing appointment.
