”We chose Shan for our Maternity Shoot after seeing the wonderful pictures she has taken previously, and we were not disappointed! Our photoshoot experience was amazing, Shan was so warm and welcoming when we arrived, and during shooting she was very professional in ensuring we captured pictures that we will cherish forever. Thank you Shan!”<\/em> \u00a0– Rob & Timea x \t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\tFrequently Asked Questions\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\tWHEN TO BOOK MY NEWBORN SESSION?\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t The best time to photograph a newborn baby is when they are 5-14 days of age, when they’re very sleepy and curly. You can contact us at any time during your pregnancy to give an estimated due date and we’ll make a tentative booking. When you arrive home, from hospital with your brand new baby you can contact us to arrange a suitable time and day for your session.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tDO YOU OFFFER DIGITAL PHOTOS? \t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
Yes. Digital photos are included with your product photos. I also offer digital photos with my packages.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tCAN I UPGRADE MY PACKAGES AFTER MY PHOTOSHOOT?\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
Absolutely! You can upgrade your packages or add on any products after you book or see your photos.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tWHAT TO WEAR TO MY PHOTOSHOOT?\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
We provide beautiful white dresses, a newborn white onesie and white clothing for babies and toddlers. If you would like to bring your own clothing, then it’s best to make sure they’re comfortable, simple, and solid-coloured, avoiding logos or patterns. The best outfits give a timeless and classic look that will last through the years. For a classic look, choose WHITE (my signature style) or soft palette colours, such as light grey or pastels.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tWHERE WILL MY PHOTOSHOOT TAKE PLACE? \t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
Your studio photoshoot will take place in my home studio, Port Erin, Isle of Man. The studio is a beautiful, light-filled space with three separate rooms – a shooting and relaxing room, a mother’s lounge for feeding and soothing, a toddler play area to keep older siblings entertained and a restroom that is fully stocked with extra nappies and wipes. Most importantly, the studio is a comfortable space where families can relax, have fun and just be themselves.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tHOW LONG IS MY NEWBORN SESSION?\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
The session is very calm, slow, gentle, and at the pace of your baby. It involves lots of quiet, gentle soothing to get the best poses. I ask my clients to set aside 3 hours at most, so that we are not rushing, but generally sessions last 2 hours.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tPLEASE TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE MATERNITY PHOTOSHOOTS?\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t

For a classic look, choose WHITE (my signature style) or soft\u00a0 palette colours, such as light grey or pastels.<\/p>\n

Your bespoke photoshoot includes styling\u00a0 with a professional makeup artist and hairstylist, allowing you to sit back, relax and enjoy a luxurious time of pampering at your photoshoot.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tPLEASE TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE BABY PHOTOSHOOTS?\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
I believe you are sitting there right now wondering how your little baby has grown so quickly.<\/p>\n
Baby photography is so important because in that first year your baby changes more than they ever will again.<\/p>\n
The best time to book your baby session is when your baby is around 6-9 months because this is when they start showing their personalities and are discovering so many new skills and are full of smiles.<\/p>\n
They’re also generally sitting on their own, which is super cute as it shows off all of their adorable baby rolls that will disappear so quickly when they start to walk.<\/p>\n
My studio is full of beautiful little designer and organic clothing and natural wooden toys that your baby will love to play with!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tPLEASE TELL ME ABOUT THE CAKE SMASH FIRST BIRTHDAY PHOTOSHOOTS? \t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
The cake smash is a great fun way to celebrate your baby’s first birthday. It’s about celebrating your baby’s milestone and the memories made. I capture all of your baby’s smiles and excitement on camera so you have beautiful photos to treasure.<\/p>\n
We start with playtime – singing, playing with bubbles and your baby can take their pick from the many stunning organic wooden toys that I have in the studio.<\/p>\n
A beautiful bespoke cake is provided for your photoshoot. Some babies are really into the spirit of the cake smash and get stuck in, while others gently prod the icing and delicately nibble. Either way, you’ll love seeing your baby’s individual personality shine through when they’re presented with the yummy birthday cake.<\/p>\n
After they have had fun with their birthday cake it’s a soak and a splash in my white kitchen sink. Babies always love this bit and we get some fantastic photos while they splash about and have a whale of a time.<\/p>\n
Your photoshoot is about 1 1\/2 hours.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
