Newborn Photography London
EvaGudLondon Newborn Photography
In the 1990s, Anne Geddes started a beautiful trend, photographing newborn babies in stunningly creative poses and created a book called Down in the Garden. Her book sold more than 9 million copies worldwide, and also led to the beginning of the era of newborn photoshoots.
Today, it is common for proud parents to hire professional photographers to do newborn photo shoots, so that they will have unique and precious memories of the first few days of their children’s lives.
And when you are looking for newborn photographer in East London, there is no better photographer than EvaGud Photography.
Your Newborn Photography Session
The best time to photograph your newborn is when they are under 3 weeks of age. (If baby is older… don’t panic! We have plenty of options so get in touch!)
All my newborn sessions are baby-led, with plenty of time for feeding and comforting.
You can contact EvaGud Photography any time during your pregnancy however, getting in touch at the early stages of your pregnancy guarantees plenty of time to discuss styling and to prepare for your session.
Your newborn images are photographs created for your family to cherish forever.
As a mum myself, I truly understand the need to hold on to these precious moments for eternity!
When Should You Get Your New Born Photo Shoot Done?
Newborn Photography Sessions are best done within the first 3 weeks of baby’s life. Contact EvaGud photography newborn photographer in East London after your 20 week scan to ensure plenty of time for styling and to prepare for your session.
This way, it is easier to create those deliciously cute and curly poses that are so lovable. Added to that younger babies don’t mind their clothes being take off as long they are warm and snugly.
Getting a photo shoot done before your baby turns 3 weeks old is ideal, since your newborn baby will sleep a lot, is feed on a regular (usually!) 2-hour schedule and doesn’t mind being dressed up (or not) during the shoot. Added to that, at this age, babies naturally settle in those beautiful poses we all love, allowing us to get some really adorable photos.
This does not mean that you cannot have a photoshoot done if your baby is more than 3 weeks old!
There are plenty of options for capturing older babies, that simply require a different approach to the session – so if your newborn baby is older than a few weeks… don’t panic!
Get in touch as soon as possible to discuss your options!

Safety of Newborn Photography
As a professional newborn photographer in East London, my first and foremost consideration during a newborn baby photography session is your baby’s safety. I ensure that the shoot, wherever it may be, is done in such a way that your precious little one is safe and secure at all times.
Here are some of the things I do to ensure that your bundle of joy is absolutely safe during our newborn photo session:
- I wear no jewellery of any kind during a photo session.
- I also ensure that my nails are filed and smooth so that there is no chance I could scratch the baby when I am handling him or her.
- I ensure that my hands are frequently sanitized during the newborn photo session.
- If I am using props, I always ensure that they are sterilized and safe for a baby to use. Especially if I am using buckets or baskets for the shoot, I ensure that that a weighted sandbag is placed at the bottom so that it doesn’t tip over.
- I am also aware of the fact that infants are easily startled, so I keep a sharp eye out on their reflexes, especially when they are placed in props.
- I always ensure that I wear a neck strap when I am using my camera.
- I never leave a baby untended. If I have to take my eyes of your newborn baby, then I ensure that one of the parents is keeping an eye on the baby at all times.
- I always ensure that my studio is comfortably warm so that even if your baby is unclothed, he or she will not be cold.
- My first consideration is your newborn baby’s comfort. So, if there is a pose that seems to cause your little one discomfort, it will be adjusted immediately. I never force a pose. If you request a pose that will be uncomfortable for your baby, or could even pose a danger to him or her, I will not put the baby in that pose.
