RUSS JACKSON - LONDON NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

A newborn session is thoughtfully crafted to provide a beautiful experience and preserve the delicate features and tiny details of your baby during those precious first weeks.

My newborn sessions are designed to provide a relaxed and memorable experience for your family. The session lasts up to four hours in my comfortable studio, allowing plenty of time to capture a variety of poses featuring your little one. I take special care in photographing your baby in different setups while also including family and sibling portraits to create a complete story of these precious early days. Throughout the session, I will share helpful tips and tricks to keep your baby calm and sleepy, ensuring a peaceful and enjoyable experience for everyone.

My newborn portrait sessions are priced at £200, but if you'd like to add professional makeup services with our experienced makeup artist, the session fee is £300.

The ideal time to photograph newborns is between 7 and 21 days old, so I recommend booking your session well in advance. As soon as you know your due date, give me a call, and we’ll schedule a provisional session for 10 days after your due date. We can easily adjust the date if your baby arrives early or late. Since newborn sessions can last up to four hours, I schedule them exclusively from Monday to Friday, starting at 10 a.m. I only book one newborn session per day to ensure a relaxed, unrushed experience for you and your baby.

Yes, I can photograph babies in the sleepy poses up to six weeks. However, these sessions take a little longer, and you can expect more beautiful awake poses in your final gallery.

If your baby is older than six weeks, I suggest waiting a few weeks and booking a family session when your baby is about 12 weeks old.

Our sessions take place at the PhaseZero Studio in High Barnet, EN5 4LQ

A session fee of £200 is required to secure your newborn photoshoot in my calendar. This fee includes:

• A pre-session consultation (via Whatsapp or Zoom) to plan and help you prepare for your session.

• An (up to) 4-hour newborn photography session at our studio.

• Comprehensive editing and retouching of your images.

• A private, online gallery to select your photographs one week after your photoshoot.

• Expert guidance on prints, albums, and wall art options.

if you'd like to add professional makeup services with our experienced makeup artist, the session fee is £300.

Please note that the session fee does not cover the cost of any digital or printed photos.

Once your gallery is posted online, you decide how many images you want to purchase and whether you'd prefer a digital collection or prints/products (or a combination of both). There is absolutely no pressure sales - your final order is entirely up to you, and there are no hidden costs.

Digital collections start at £395 and we offer a range of luxury print collections, albums and stunning wall art. Individual prints start at £150. Our clients typically spend between £995 and £2000.

Beyond beautiful photographs, you're investing in a truly memorable experience during this special time in your life, which I am dedicated to capturing for you.

Please get in touch with me to schedule a discovery call to discuss your investment and begin planning your photoshoot.

I work with a small number of handpicked suppliers who offer beautiful options for displaying your photographs, luxury wall art, stunning fine art mounted prints, and luxury albums. Prices start at as little as £150, so there is something for every budget.

My digital collections start at £395.

However, you will only invest in the images you love, and we have a no-obligation policy.

Please get in touch to schedule a consultation call so we can discuss your investment and plan your photoshoot.

Of course! Welcoming a new baby into the family is exciting for everyone, and I would love to document that for you. There is no extra charge for immediate family members to attend the session. Capturing a stunning image of multiple generations is also very special, so don’t forget that you can include grandparents in your session too!

As you’ll notice in my newborn gallery, I specialise in a minimalistic "less is more" approach when photographing your baby.

I believe that timeless images of your baby - either on their own or cradled in your arms- will hold more meaning and value for you and your child as the years pass. That said, if you’d like a special or sentimental item included in your photos, I encourage you to bring it along.

I also offer a selection of outfits, fabrics, and accessories to style your session, so there is nothing you need to bring along for baby. Once your booking is confirmed, we’ll have a discovery call on Zoom or WhatsApp to discuss what to bring and what outfits to wear for your session.

On the day of your session, we’ll capture your baby in various outfits and poses, including heartwarming family and sibling portraits.

You'll be presented with a gallery of 25-30 beautifully retouched photographs in your private online web gallery.

Roughly one week after your photoshoot, I will post a private online gallery for you to view your photos and choose your favourites.

Once your gallery is posted online, you decide how many images you want to purchase and whether you'd prefer a digital collection or prints/products (or a combination of both). There is absolutely no pressure sales - your final order is entirely up to you, and there are no hidden costs.

Unfortunately, not. All newborn sessions are booked Monday through Friday. Newborn babies are at their best in the morning, so we recommend a 10 am session.

You will need to arrange your session directly with me. Sessions are booked according to the availability in my diary.

Please fill out the contact me form, including your due date (or baby's age), and I will reply with some options. Otherwise, please call me to discuss your session and book you into my diary.
