How old is TOO old for Baby Photos?

“How old is too old for Baby Photos?” is something I am asked ALL the time. Literally ALL the time. In fact I can guarantee that I have an email currently sat unopened in my inbox which has this exact question.

With lockdown coming to an end in the UK I am aware that many of you have missed out on precious newborn photos. I am so sorry. I know how special this time in life is. In the blink of an eye they grow up. I still can’t quite believe that I have an almost 5 year old!

I always advise that baby photos are best in the first few weeks. Your baby will still be super sleepy from birth. They still have the tiny wrinkly skin and are happy to curl up in fabulous positions.

But if we have missed those first few weeks please do not panic! I have photographed babies up to 12 weeks of age. They normally fall asleep by the end of the session!

I thought I would share a few photos from older babies that I have worked with. I will never turn away a child based on age. All children are perfect and deserve to have gorgeous portraits that can be looked back on.

Lockdown eases on the 12th April which means that I can re-open my Plymouth studio. I am very excited. It has been a long few months but I am fully prepared to welcome you back in a safely.

If you had a baby in lockdown I would love to be considered as your baby photographer. Please check out my blog for more of my newborn work in the studio. If you are expecting a baby I would love to hear from you too. I take bookings from your 12 week scan.
