This beautiful little girl was only 7 days old when she came in for her newborn portraits to our Hampshire based studio. We met mum, and gran at the Southampton Baby & Toddler show back in October, and they called us on arrival to arrange a session.

We have just uploaded and show the images from our most recent newborn portrait session to her parents and they are very pleased. Having posted a sneaky peek to Facebook a day or so earlier we knew that the images were getting good feedback from the parents, family and friends but they have now seen the whole gallery.

Well I just got back from the Hampshire Baby & Toddler Show in Southampton. The show started very busily, and the large cruise centre terminal filled with prams, toddlers, expectant woman and friends, dads, husbands, partners and parents. Our stand drew lots of admiring glances, and wonderful comments and we spoke to lots of people...

The second annual Hampshire Baby and Toddler Exhibition takes place this weekend on the 2nd Octovber at the City Cruise Terminal. It runs from 10am to 3:30pm and should, based on last year, be an amazing event. We will of course be attending again and will be in our regular position at stand B12, close to the refreshments area.

Baby L came in for his contemporary baby photos at 10 days after birth. He arrived at our warm natural light studio with his mum and dad, and we soon got in to making photographs starting with a blue theme before moving onto a soft brown to allow us to use the cute little teddy bear hat we have in our collection, and another longer one.

Today we photographed a little four week old baby girl in the studio, for her newborn baby photographs. With most of our older newborns Baby D took a while to settle, and felt most comfortable in a little knitted cocoon but once asleep we took a series of portraits of her for her parents with the cutest of angelic expressions.

This mornings session was for a little 17 day old baby boy. I had photographed him before, albeit in his mums tummy for a location maternity portrait some weeks ago and now this Hampshire newborn was the star of the show in his first solo photo-shoot. I met his mum at the Hampshire Baby and Toddler Show in Southampton last October and we have of course kept in touch so it was lovely to be able to photograph him today.

This morning we had another portrait session with a newborn baby here at our studio in Hampshire to create some wonderful fine art images.
Today’s little boy was ten days old and his mum and dad are previous clients of ours, having photographed their wedding about three years ago. I have seen them at other weddings we have photographed where they were guests and kept in touch and of course I was delighted to hear that they were looking to have their newborn baby photographed when born.
The draw for the competition which we ran on our stand at the Hampshire Baby and Toddler Exhibition on the 12th November has taken place. EW from Southampton was the winner drawn out of the hat and she wins a newborn portrait session and a £50 credit towards any purchases.

Yesterday was the Hampshire Baby and Toddler Show at the City Cruise Terminal in Southampton – and what a show. We were situated on Stand B8 showcasing our fine art newborn baby photography and didn’t really stop talking to mums, dads and parents-to-be all day.I just wanted to say a massive thanks to everyone that stopped at the stand and spoke about the images they saw, and also the quality of the photography and our products.
On Saturday 13th November we will be exhibiting our newborn baby photography on stand B8 at the Hampshire Baby & Toddler Exhibition. This show is being held at the City Cruise Terminal in Southampton and is open between 10:30am and 4pm. Our feature stand will be showcasing our fine art newborn baby photographs
