Most families book while pregnant. Flexible if baby arrives early or late.

Worried newborn photos might feel overwhelming?

You’re not alone 🤍

Most parents arrive wondering:

✓ What if baby cries the whole time?
✓ What if we feel awkward in front of the camera?
✓ What if I haven’t slept?
✓ What if I don’t know what to do?

That’s exactly why every session is calm, gently guided and completely baby-led.

You don’t need to “get it right.”

That’s my job.

You’re trusting someone with your tiny baby - that matters.

Hi, I’m Rachel 🤍

As a mum myself, I know how vulnerable those early days can feel.

That’s why I’ve created a newborn photography experience designed to feel calm, welcoming and genuinely manageable — even on very little sleep.

You won’t be expected to know how to pose, calm baby perfectly, or show up feeling “ready.”

I’ll gently guide everything.

So you can simply arrive, breathe, and soak it all in.

Booking newborn photos is simpler than you think 🤍

Kind words from parents who felt exactly the same

“Rachel made my first newborn photoshoot experience an absolute breeze! As a first time Mum I was worrying about everything. Rachel was so professional and she knew what she was doing so that my partner and I could sit back and enjoy the special moment. She has an incredible talent and I would recommend her to anyone!” - Lauren

“I have used Rachel twice now, both times we felt totally at ease and the photographs are stunning! Highly recommend to anyone looking for top quality, relaxed, fun pictures” - Claire

“I chose to have newborn photos done by Rachel at Authentic Baby Photography after recommendations from two friends who had also had newborn shoots. The experience from first contact to the photos arriving has been excellent. The day itself was relaxed and Rachel told me what to do at home pre shoot to get a sleepy baby for pictures. I am so in love with the photos taken and will be using her again” - Katie

Think you’ve missed the newborn stage?

Not necessarily 🤍

While sleepy curled-up newborn images are usually captured in the first couple of weeks, beautiful baby-led sessions can absolutely still happen after that.

Older babies bring their own magic:

✨ eye contact
✨ gorgeous expressions
✨ connection
✨ cuddles

If this has been sitting on your mind… it’s worth asking.
