Newborn Specialist

After long deliberation I have decided that Katie Watson Photography will solely photograph newborns and maternity. 

I want to be able to offer my customers the very best, which means I need to focus on one area of photography so that I can put everything into that area. It will mean I can focus my training there, my time, my planning and most of all my heart. 

I work the best when I am photographing newborns and maternity, as these areas of photography allow me to use my artist flare in the best way possible. 

I am currently working on prices and products so please bare with me when you enquire. 
For those who do not know I no longer work at Szpak photography, however I will be able to use the studio up until January. After this time I will return to being a fully mobile photographer. 

Please see my updated website:

About Newborn Photography

It is very important that I photograph baby between 5- 12 days old so that we can capture the best images possible for you. At this age babies like to sleep which means that we can create those classic sleepy posed photographs of your baby. It also means we don’t have to worry about colic, as that can make baby very restless.
I am a fully mobile photographer, meaning I come to your home to photograph your newborn. During your session you will be able to relax while you watch your baby having their photos taken. There will be a chance to get sibling and baby and also parent and baby photographs in the session. We will also talk before hand in your consultation call about preparation and what sort of things to have ready. I will also have a chat with you about what sort of style your looking for from your photography and where you are looking to place your photos in your home, this will give me a good idea of how to shoot your session and what colours to use to compliment your home.

My number one focus above all is that your baby is safe, happy and comfortable throughout the whole session. Baby is very, very new and will have no control whatsoever. I will support your baby throughout each pose, and will always be close to baby when he/she is in a posed position. Please be aware that any of those unique, self-supporting photographs you see are a few images in one to keep baby safe (keep an eye out for a blog post on this very soon).

Jessica - 10 days old

I had the joy of photographing Jessica while she was in mums tummy, and then shortly after Jessica herself at 10 days old.

Jessica, as you can see from the photos, is gorgeous. She had lots of dark hair and beautiful skin.

Rob, Cheryl and bump, Jessica. 

Weighing 8lb 3oz at birth

Jessica slept for most of the session

Stopping to eat occasionally 

I love her little feet


Very safe in dads arms

Happy family 

I just loved Jessica's session, she was a little star and mum and dad were wonderful too.

When to book your newborn session...

It is so important that you book your newborn session early while your pregnant. We can put a provisional booking in the diary ready for your baby, which allows us to be able to fit you in once baby is born. We get booked up very quickly and cannot guarantee you a session if you ring once baby is born, however we will try our best to fit you in.

Remember that baby must be between 5 and 12 days old for a newborn portrait. Any baby after this age is no longer a newborn (in the photography sense), I can photograph older babies but please be aware that we will not achieve those sleepy posed images as you see in my newborn work. After your baby has passed the newborn stage ages 4, 6 and 12 months old are more ideal (but can be completely tailored to you and your baby’s needs).
