Newborn Photoshoots in Glasgow at Your Home

Benefits of having your photoshoot at home, what to expect and top tips

 We’re around babies all the time, we know that sometimes getting around with a newborn is not the easiest. Car seats, prams, changing bags and all the essentials can be a bit of a logistical nightmare at times. 

Having your newborn photoshoot at home takes out the hassle and stress of travelling.

Key benefits of a newborn photo shoot at home are:

• Photographs taken where your baby is most comfortable.

• No stressful trips to studios.

• Don’t need to find or pay for parking.

• All essentials for the baby will all be within arms reach.

• Studio level professional photos but in the comfort of your own home.

• Our photography kit is portable and will fit into most rooms.

• Whole studio experience in the comfort of your own home.

 

How long will the newborn photography session last? 

Sessions are usually 3 hours long. Our newborn photography sessions are baby-led. There’s no rush to get the perfect pictures we will work with you and your baby to make the process easy.

 

Ideas for your newborn photography shoot.

Our style of photoshoots is elegant and art-based. That might sound really fancy, but ultimately that just means our images are timeless and will never look dated.

Some of our most popular scenes ideas are:

• Tartan – Though our baby photo shoots are located in Glasgow and the surrounding areas. We photograph other shoots like weddings and parties all over Scotland. Our favourite place to shoot will always be Scotland. We love the scenery, the colours, the wildlife, everything. So any chance we get to sneak a bit of Scotland into our photos we will. We love using tartan as a backdrop to bring a wee bit of Scotland into peoples homes.

 

 

• Sleeping – This is the classic tiny baby shot, but I’ll be honest, the shoot isn’t a total loss if the baby doesn’t sleep. So many times we arrive at a house to be told the baby sleeps constantly. When we arrive without a doubt they are always wide awake and curious during the whole shoot. We don’t mind that as we love seeing their big beautiful eyes and curious face. To get the best chance of capturing a sleeping baby we recommend feeding your baby 2 to 3 hours before the shoot.  We also recommend a feed as soon as we arrive for the shoot. Keeping the house at around 26 degrees is recommended. Newborn babies can be very sensitive to temperature, this makes sure they are very cosy.

• Dress up – Got some costumes, dresses or smart outfits for your baby? Get them out! We love nothing more than to wrap up the shoot showcasing your wee baby dressed in their finest attire. Pretty dresses, a gentleman’s flat cap and waistcoat or a full-blown Halloween costume! Your baby is tiny, these clothes won’t last long. We like to get some photos to remind you of the time they fit into these tiny items (and for blackmail for their 18th!)

 

DIY photoshoot ideas for you to try at home. 

Because of lockdown we obviously can’t make it out to peoples homes right now, which is tough as we’re missing so many wee babies – So in order to not lose these precious moments we’ve scoured the web for some amazing photoshoot ideas that you can try at home for yourself.

These are amazing ideas for you to try for yourself and have a bit of fun in the process.
