Baby's First Year Collection


Baby's First Year Collection



Capture the journey from newborn to one year old


The first year with your baby is special. 


Documenting each milestone along the way is a wonderful way to remember the little changes, the different expressions and the incredible journey you will go on together.


If you live in the Wetherby, Leeds or Harrogate area, I am here to help you tell your baby's story step by step. 


There are certain moments that are worth preserving so you can look back and remember their chubby faces and their first smiles.


The three main milestones I recommend capturing during the first year are:

  • the teeny tiny newborn stage to capture their brand newness
  • 6/7 months when they are giggling, showing their emerging personality and sitting up by themselves
  • as they reach the age of one, we can celebrate with some classic portraits of your little one as well as having some fun with a cake!



This will be one of the most extraordinary years for all the family.


Let me help you capture it in beautiful professional photographs so that you don't forget a thing.



What does it cost? 

A session fee of £125 will guarantee you three shoots during your baby's first year.
This is a saving of £50 on booking a newborn, and 2 further studio shoots.

The session fee does not include products or digital images.


If you have visited me for a newborn session with me and decide at your viewing that you'd like me to capture the whole of your baby's first year, we can add this on with your newborn order (minus your newborn booking fee).


After each shoot, we will meet to look through your images together at a viewing and ordering session, watching a slideshow and deciding together what you'd like to do.


There is no obligation or minimum order.
