I am fully trained in newborn safety, and with over 15 years of experience handling and posing newborns—thats over 900 babies photographed!—you can feel confident that your baby is in safe, experienced hands. I understand which poses are safe, how to properly support your baby’s delicate neck, and how to read subtle cues that tell me when it’s time to move on to another pose.

​My calm and welcoming studio has been thoughtfully designed with both parents and little ones in mind — a safe, peaceful space with professional lighting and carefully curated setups where you can relax and enjoy the experience.

Using gentle, baby-led posing and soothing techniques developed over many years, every detail is considered to create timeless, heartfelt images that you and your family will treasure forever.

Gemma really is the baby whisperer. The best experience from beginning to end and the photos were just beautiful. Couldn't recommend her services more. Thanks Gemma

Gemma is amazing! We first met her when she did our newborn photoshoot earlier this year - she was fantastic with our baby boy and the photos were exactly what we were looking for. We’ve since booked the Father’s Day and Christmas Mini Shoots, both of which were perfect! We are so happy we chose Gemma to capture these precious memories 💕💕💕

Gemma had been recommended to me and I am so pleased she was.
From start to finish Gemma was thoroughly, she kept me well informed and was very professional.
One the day she kept my daughter calm (like the baby whisperer) she was great with my older son. Nothing was too much trouble.
The pictures she has created for me are ones I will cherish forever.

"We had the most wonderful experience with Gemma as our newborn photographer. From the moment we arrived, she created such a calm, welcoming environment that instantly put both us and our baby at ease.
Her gentle and patient approach with our little one was incredible to watch — she truly has a gift for working with newborns. Every pose was handled with care, and she made sure our baby was safe, comfortable, and content throughout the entire session.
The photos turned out absolutely stunning. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any new parents" Lauren F


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"We booked a newborn shoot with Gemma when our little boy was just 2 weeks old. We were quite anxious about the experience as we weren’t sure if he would behave for the shoot, but Gemma was absolutely amazing from start to finish which soon made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. We were in awe of how calmly she handled our little boy and made it all look so easy. The whole experience was fantastic and we would highly recommend anyone wanting to do a newborn shoot to book with her. Can’t wait to go back for his cake smash shoot when he turns 1. Thank you for all the beautiful photos and the amazing experience something we will cherish for life" Charlotte F
