Session
There is nothing better than a newborn baby wrapped up cosy in a mossy wood. If you are ready to brave a wander with babe or if they are a tiny bit older, this is perfect. Plenty of time for breaks, blankets and barefeet.
Woodland locations include Maryculter Woods, Potarch Bridge, Glen Dye Woods and Cambus O May.

My Newborn sessions are unhurried and natural, focusing on your baby’s tiny details and the love that surrounds them. Whether we’re in your cosy home or exploring a peaceful outdoor spot, these sessions are all about capturing the magic of new life in a way that feels honest and timeless.
"We are delighted with the pictures Alyssa took. From the start of the process right through she was so kind and approachable and her love of photography was obvious. She suggested locations and we had a call prior so she could get a feel of what we wanted."

What if our house is a mess?
First off, don’t worry! I will find beauty in the mess. My favourite rooms to shoot in tend to be the one with good natural light or big windows. And we can move things as we go!
When do you typically shoot newborns?
Anytime after 2 weeks, through 3 months really. In that first month you get the sleepy scrunch, but sometimes you might not be ready, as the months pass, they still stay a newborn, but you get into a groove together and your bond grows which I also love capturing. But I actually love the 6 month to 1 year phase and I think it's never too late for a baby photoshoot!
Can we include siblings or family members?
Of course! For Newborn sessions are about celebrating your growing family. Whether it’s siblings cuddling their new baby sibling or quiet moments with parents, we’ll document the love you all share. Motherhood sessions are for one parent and baby only.
What if my baby is fussy or needs feeding?
These baby photoshoots are completely baby-led, so there’s no need to worry! If your baby needs a feeding break, a cuddle, or a little time to settle, that’s absolutely fine. The slower pace of newborn sessions allows us to capture authentic, quiet moments while respecting your baby’s needs.
A note on image delivery
I deliver all the photos I think matter in your story, and they are all there for you to download at no extra cost.
I've always hated the experience of having to pay more after investing in the experience. Choosing 5 or 10 images is so hard, and you'll notice you like different things about different photos years down the line. So I allow free downloads of all your digital files.
