Newborn Mini Sessions - Explained

11/10/2019

0 Comments

 
Newborn Mini Sessions have recently become popular with parents who just want a few keepsake pictures of their new baby or if they have missed the 'ideal' newborn stage for photography.

OK, so what is the difference between a premium newborn session and a mini newborn session, surely they are the same thing?

I offer two types of newborn photography in the studio, my Premium Newborn session which is by far the most popular option, and I also offer a 'lighter' package with no frills too - but why are they different? surely they are the same?

The biggest difference is time it takes creating your artwork.
My premium session a lot more planning goes into this session right from your very first consultation. We discuss in great detail colour palettes so your session has bespoke styling through out to compliment your home interiors, you are investing your money in the perfect wall art so we want to create that show stopping piece for your living room walls and it needs to be perfect.
Your session is up to 4 hours in the studio to ensure each set, and pose is perfect, and this does take time but at the same time this 4 hours does fly by. You may have a Pinterest full of ideas that have inspired you for a certain look for your home, so specially sourced props, textures or colours may need to be ordered in for your photoshoot. Your baby will require feeding and tops ups during your visit so time is allocated to ensure your baby is happy, and some babies do need extra cuddles too.

The mini session is an hour where we can fit as many poses wrapped, awake or asleep in your hour. Your baby needs to arrive to the studio ready to go to get the most out of your allocated time slot.

Premium sessions have more options and variety with posing & props
With a lot more time available we can create more variety, change up the colours and styling and offer more complex posing and those rustic basket and prop shots. Full body shots, close ups, hands & feet shots. We can add anything in the studio you fancy to create something you will love. Your first family portrait is always a favourite, and your other children and fur babies can be included too. You will be presented a finished gallery of 20 images.

The mini session will be maximum 5 final images of your baby awake or asleep, wrapped in the same colour through out.

Professional Retouching
Your Premium session includes full professional retouching on all of the family and this is done to each clients personal requirements. Your baby will have any blemishes or milk spots reduced, and any redness or jaundice corrected to give the creamy skin tones as seen in my portfolio.
This session also includes composite editing where complex poses or props have been used and a parent is supporting the baby safely and needs to be removed from the photo.

The mini session has a light edit and overall image colour correction applied.

Overall Studio Experience
Your premium newborn session is tailored from start to finish. From the moment you enquire. In house ordering makes selecting the best products and images for your walls a fun and exciting experience up until the day you are holding your wall art in your hands ready to take it home.
Every step is bespoke to your exact requirements. 

The mini session is a shorter yet still a lovely experience in the studio, the only difference is your final images are emailed over to you as a downloadable link once they are ready.


Limited amount of sessions
I would only be able to offer a limited amount of mini sessions per month, just like the Premium Newborn sessions. Please book early to avoid disappointment.

Why does a newborn shoot take 4 hours?

11/9/2019

0 Comments

 
newborn baby girl baby pictures by sarah mcelan in lancashire
I am often asked; "why does a newborn session take so long?" or "why is a newborn shoot 4 hours?"

There is many reasons why we schedule out 4 hours for a newborn photo shoot, each session is bespoke and tailored to your requirements, from the styling and chosen colour schemes to the props and poses.

Newborn sessions are entirely baby lead, and some babies do get the sleepy memo before their photo shoot and the rest decide it's playtime and they don't want to sleep.

1. Settling your baby 
Settling your baby can take time, some babies require lots of soothing and cuddles to relax them and fall into a deep sleep, some don't. Which ever category your baby falls into this part isn't rushed, your baby may require a feed to help settle or to be rocked to their favourite lullaby. I have had some baby's settle in a few minutes and other in an hour. Each baby is different and different methods work.

2. Accidents
So we have your baby settled and posed on the beautiful cream backdrop which matches your home decor perfectly when bam...... a cascading waterfall of poop and pee happens, lucky for you if it is on the backdrop and unlucky if it is on me or you. 
Accidents always happen in the studio when you have baby's with no nappies on - but we crave for those cutesy naked pictures of our baby, so with nappy free time - expect little accidents on the way.

3. Feeding Time
To keep your baby happy a full tummy is always best (even now I am the same - happy when fed). Once your baby has had a good feed and full tummy and all of the wind burped from them we are always good to go.
Often during their photo's I will sometimes re-position baby which may disturb them but it's nothing a quick suckle on a dummy or a top up milk can't sort. The newborn session is longer than regular sessions to allow plenty of time for baby feeds during their visit to the studio.

4. Family Pictures
Your newborn session has plenty of time for family pictures - your first professional portrait as a family of three, or even four or five! If older siblings are to have their pictures taken with their new baby brother or sister - these do take time. Prepping the baby so younger siblings can hold them safely to getting toddlers dressed into their photo outfits.
family portrait photographer in Blackburn Lancashire

5. Props and Posing
You see all of the rustic props available in the studio? well some of these props (especially the swing) these have to be photographed in a special way to ensure baby safety whilst using this certain props. The photo's have to be capture in a way so I can safely composite them together in photo shop, or edit away hands or supporting fingers. 
Some props require baby to be inside it in a certain way, sometimes baby wriggles out of that pose an we have to start again, or they startle and jump out of position as soon as I pick up the camera!

The studio is full of beautiful outfits, headbands and bonnets, and parents can select any of these to use during the session, so it takes time making these changes during their session too. 
Relaxing your baby back into the previous position can take time, uncurling their little fingers again, and posing them. I have Netflix in the studio should you wish to watch a film or box set, or even bring along your favourite book, the time does pass rather quickly even if you sit there watching from start to finish - enjoy the experience of watching your baby have their pictures taken.

I only book in one newborn session per day. This is so we have plenty of time to settle your baby for their pictures and all of the above. 
Please don't plan anything in on the day of your newborn photo shoot, appointments with the midwife, or registering your baby or even a nail appointment, having plenty of time helps for a relaxing environment.
Some babies might not settle 2 - 3 hours into your appointment (and believe me - this does happen), having plenty of time assures us we have enough time, and no pressure on making your baby 'perform' as like you and I, babies can have off days too, they are human and no matter how much time they have, sometimes that day may not be their day and in these instances we choose another date.

Newborn Photography - What happens if baby doesn't behave during a Newborn Baby Photoshoot

4/4/2019

0 Comments

 
 "What happens if my baby doesn't behave?" is a question I am asked over and over again with newborn photography, and yes it does happen from time to time, your baby isn't bad behaved... it is a baby and doing what babies do.
A skilled baby photographer will have a back up plan in place should your baby arrive to their photography studio unsettled for whatever reason.

A few reasons your baby may not be settled on their photoshoot day:
  • Hungry
  • Colic
  • Growth Spurt
  • Not enough sleep (Overt tired)
  • Too much sleep (lots of awake time in the studio)
  • Too hot/cold

Babies have growth spurts frequently and this can disturb your baby's feeding routine - you may notice they cluster feed quite often and are a lot more alert, this is your baby growing and trying to take more milk for their growth.

These growth spurts can affect the session only by the extra feeds and settling, and each session is totally baby lead just in case this happens.
​

Baby and family photo's clitheroe, lancashire by Sarah Mclean
When you book your newborn photography session with me, we have an initial phone consultation (either before or when your baby has arrived). 
With my preparation guide I discuss with parents lots of handy hints & tips on preparing for your appointment, and send you a copy of the guide to you.
Reading and following the guide means we should get the most from your baby at your session on the day.

As an experienced newborn photographer I have a selection of 'go too' poses I do during any newborn session if baby appears to be unsettled or having lots of 'awake time' I will work this into your photography session until your baby is ready for their nap time.
Some babies just prefer a lot more cuddles than others, and they can also pick up on tension and stress so try and relax during your photoshoot, and give off those sleepy vibes.

All newborn sessions are completely baby lead, if your baby isn't happy on their tummy then I won't pose them on their tummy. 
I check temperatures often too, sometimes babies are unsettled if they are too hot or cold and this is monitored during the whole session when baby is in wraps or in just skin.

In the many years I have been a newborn photographer, not all baby sessions go to plan and in the odd occasion I have re-scheduled a couple of sessions, normally when this happens baby comes back to the studio settled the second time after their 'practise' run ;-)

OREN BY SARAH MCLEAN NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER PRESTON

14/3/2019

0 Comments

 
newborn baby in a bucket sleeping newborn photography in Clitheroe Lancashire Sarah Mclean Photography
Oren visited me at my studio in Preston, along with his big brother and sister so everyone could be involved, and not miss out on the fun of their first official family portrait together - I couldn't of asked for better models in my studio.
Sometimes it can be challenging managing little people in the studio, so I make it as much fun as possible but - these kids smashed it. The only hard bit was deciding who could hold Oren, they were both equally amazing at it so they both held him for pictures.
​
Oren's parents selected more neutral and rustic colours and tones for their pictures - dad is very handy with wood work so the rustic wooden back drop only seemed perfect to fit in with his interests.
In fact I have tapped him up to hopefully create some bespoke wooden props for my photo shoots..... watch this space.
family photos in Preston, newborn baby photographer
I was so excited to use some new props I recently acquired in the studio (psssst don't tell my husband) - I am in love with this little bed set up on the rustic backdrop, finished with creams and neutral fabrics, whilst Oren sleeps peacefully, I didn't want to disturb him. This cute little bed was a favourite with both mum & dad.

I also include beautiful, timeless portraits in Black & White - these photo's are created using the parents hands, you will look back on these pictures in years to come wondering how your baby once curled up in your hands when you watch them running around the garden - or when they leave home to venture to university. When people say they grow so fast...... they really do.

​What to take to your newborn baby photo shoot....

As a parent myself I understand how it can be a challenge to get out of the door with young children or a young baby – you feel as everything but the kitchen sink is packed in your bag ready for your outing, and we have all been there when we realise what we have forgotten too!
 
I have put together this handy check list of items to bring along with you to your newborn baby's photo shoot to help relieve the stress of forgetting an item off the list.
 
I send a helpful prep guide to parents when they book me for their newborn session, here are my top tips on what to bring to your newborn session.
 
what should I bring to a newborn baby photo shoot in Preston Lancashire.

​
  1. Spare Milk – If you are bottle feeding your newborn baby you will need to ensure you have enough spare milk for your baby. Babies tend to feed more during a photo shoot so always bring extra milk, my studio has equipment to make bottles here, a perfect prep machine, bottle warmer and kettle are all available.
  2. Spare Clothes – for you and baby. Your baby is photographed in skin for most of their session without a nappy on, and yes accidents do often happen.
  3. Heirlooms – Don’t forget your personal items which make your photos unique. I provide all props and backdrops – it’s these sentimental items which make your photos personal and unique.
  4. Snacks – The studio offers complimentary bottled water, cold soft drinks and tea and coffee with plenty of biscuits please bring along snacks or packed lunch for yourself and siblings.
  5. Nappies and Wipes – Extra nappies and spare baby clothes/grows as accidents do happen. I do have spare nappies and wipes in the studio should you run out.
  6. Dummy – Even if your baby doesn’t normally take a dummy these can be very useful during your session to settle your baby in between posing with- out needing extra feeds.
  7. iPad, Books, Newspapers – Sometimes shoots can be a little longer than planned so having activities for siblings especially can take away the boredom – or use the time I have your baby to catch up on your favourite book, I am very hands on during your session, and will handle your baby for most of their session.  I do have Netflix available in the studio too.
  8. Sit back and relax – Enjoy and take in your baby’s first professional photo shoot, it’s a magical time watching me pose your baby for a lifetime of memories – enjoy your session.

Introducing your new baby to your toddler

Introducing a new baby to your toddler.
 
However you approach the way to tell your Toddler about your news, it will depend on your toddler how the process the information of the arrival of a new baby brother or sister.
 
I have put together some handy tips for when your new baby arrives and dealing with your toddler below.

  • Keep up routines & activities
Keeping up with your toddlers current routine will ensure your toddler isn’t left feeling left out and will reassure your toddler. This may just be your toddler’s daily walk, bed time story or playgroup activity.

  • Accept that your toddler may not love their new baby brother/sister at first
They may not be as excited as you at first, and it’s great if they do. Just don’t expect them to love them straight away. They need time to adjust to the new baby in their life too.

  • Extra Demands
Your toddler may need more attention, and your friends and family can help, but don’t forget to give your toddler some one on one attention too.

  • Encourage them to take an interest
Toddlers may not love their new sibling straight away but they will be interested in them. Take this opportunity to go through their own baby photo’s and toys – dig out those photo albums and let them ask questions about babies.

  • Distract your toddler during feeds
Toddlers may feel left out or jealous during feeds, try and distract your toddler before feeding, a great way is a book which you can read to them at the same time.

  • Babyish Behaviour
Be patient with babyish behaviour – your toddler may start asking to be carried, or for a bottle, or even wetting themselves even though they are potty trained This is normal behaviour please do not punish them.

  • Encourage your toddler to help
Turn looking after the baby in to fun, encourage them to talk to the baby and help with feeds and changes, and make it fun being involved.

Should I have a Maternity Photo shoot?

24/11/2017

0 Comments

 
Congratulations, your pregnant!
Pregnancy is such an exciting time in any ladies life - every day is a step closer to meeting the little bundle of joy you are growing patiently inside of you.

Maternity sessions are so much fun, and towards the end of my pregnancy I remember I practically lived in jogging bottoms and t-shirts, and nothing fit, and I was tired and hadn't actually got dressed up for quite a few months.

My Maternity sessions not only capture and record professional photo's of your baby bump as a keepsake reminder, but  my sessions are designed to make mam's to feel super glam and amazing!

I have photographed a few families expecting their first baby, shooting the traditional pregnancy style photo's wearing casual clothes, and maybe your partner's shirt, and I still capture these as part of your maternity session, but I want to my  mama to be's to look and feel......GORGEOUS!

Do something for you, before you time is taken up with your new baby when he or she arrives into the world.

As females, we always feel that we need to have an occasion or an excuse to do something and never much for ourselves. Maternity portraits are often overlooked because of the impending arrival of your baby - maybe you don't feel nice, or your scared of feeling huge - why not celebrate this magical time of what your body is doing...... creating life!

Your body is changing, so embrace those curves and feel super confident and stunning in front of the camera, get those 'WOW' pictures for your facebook or Art work for your home.
Picture

I provide a selection of stunning slips, dresses and lacy garments for you to wear during your session
you can wear as many of the items as you wish to change up your looks during your time in the studio, and you can wear as much or a little as you want. 
My most requested maternity pose is an implied nude in black & white showing off your new baby bump curves - your body is amazing! 
I know how to flatter and poses ladies to look their very best.
Picture

Partners and baby's siblings are more than welcome to be involved in your maternity session, making your images much more intimate and special with your family.
Picture
Picture
Your pregnancy is a very special time, and much like the newborn baby stage, it's an irreplaceable time too. 

Nothing to wear?
Don't worry - choose from our ever growing collection of slips, dresses and gowns to wear at your shoot. 
Maternity sessions all take place at my studio based in Longridge Nr Preston, Lancashire.
The studio is warm & welcoming with a growing selection of slips, gowns & dresses to wear during your photo shoot.

With a private changing area, you can try on as many of the dresses as you wish to choose the perfect one for you. 

I have contacts of local Make up artists should you wish to have your hair and make up professionally done before your shoot.
Picture
If you are still un-decided about booking your maternity photo shoot - why not take advantage of this amazing opportunity.

For all ladies who pre-book their newborn baby photo shoot on or before 30 weeks pregnant, you will receive a complimentary mini maternity session at around 36 weeks.
Then simply view your baby bump pictures together with your newborn baby ones, and combine your favourite images into your chosen package.

Some of my client's opted for the complimentary mini maternity session option, and when they saw their images they were happy they had the option to do it as they would not have considered it otherwise and they are so glad they have these memories.

Hospital Photo Checklist for Dad - {FREE printable checklist)

28/9/2017

1 Comment

 
Picture
You have the hospital bag packed, your ready to meet your new baby as those final days are ticking down to your due date.
Your fully charged camera is packed in your bag so you can capture your baby's first moments when they arrive into world. 

If it's your first baby, the experience of what happens during delivery & labour is very new so it's easy to get caught up in whats going on and forget about recording those first moments.

Here I have put together a list of must have hospital pictures to capture those important first photo's for your family album, and to make it even easier you can download and print off the handy check list for Dad, so he doesn't miss any of those special shots too.

1. Final bump picture
Capture your last ever bump picture - this may be easier to capture if your going in for a scheduled C-Section than if  your already in full established labour, this shot males for a final memory especially if you have been recording your bump growth over the last 9 months.

2. Hospital Room / Delivery suite
Really capture the room details such as the door name/number, and the room your baby is going to be delivered in.

3. The Time
Capture a picture of the clock when your baby arrives, what better way to capture the exact time your baby entered the world.


Picture
4. Your Baby
It's entirely up to the individual of what part of your baby being born is captured, once your baby has been delivered they will be lifted up and wrapped in a blanket, this makes a beautiful first photo even if they are crying. Your baby will be then weighed so a snap of them on the scales if possible is a memorable picture.

5. Hospital Tags/ ID Cards
Your baby will be given an ID tag, usually with a name and their D.O.B. Capture a close up of your baby wearing their tag. Other information is recorded on a card for their bedside cot such as their length and head circumference. 




6. Meeting mummy 
This is the most precious photograph you can possibly capture, there will be so much emotion when mum meets her baby for the first time.


Picture
​7. Meeting daddy
This is a sure 2nd after your baby meets mummy, is when your baby meets their daddy for the first time, and again lots of emotion.

8. First family picture
If this is your first baby, asking the midwife to capture your first family photo is a must. If you don't want to look straight at the camera, look down at your precious baby for a more intimate picture, and convert it into black & white for a more timeless photo.

9. Meeting siblings
If your baby has brother's and sister's their first meeting with their new baby sibling is a photo to treasure. 

10. Meeting grand parents
First granchild or not, capturing your newborn baby meeting their grandparents for the first time is another special keepsake photo for the family album.

11. First Outfit
Once your baby has arrived they will be dressed in their first outfit, usually a sleep suit and hat. Capture photo's of your baby in their new outfit, and asleep for those adorable new baby photo's

Picture
​​
​12. Going Home
It's time to take your baby home, and usually a going home outfit is prepared in advance for this special occasion, remember to capture their first photo in their car seat as you leave the hospital.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Don't forget to arrange your professional newborn baby photo's too - a lot of photographer's become booked up in advance with the unpredictability of when babies actually arrive so they take advance bookings.

I cover Longridge, Clitheroe, Preston, Chorley, Blackpool areas in Lancashire - if you require newborn baby photo's in these areas please click the link below to check our availability.

What happens if my baby doesn't sleep on the day?

26/7/2017

0 Comments

 
As a newborn photographer I get asked this question quite often by client's who are looking to book in their newborn photo's.

"what happen's if my baby doesn't behave?", or "My baby is always awake!"

To be honest babies & children are unpredictable, from one day to the next.
​As a newborn specialist I do have an idea of when to expect babies to have their growth spurts and cluster feeds, although this does vary from newborn to newborn as they develop at different rates, so I plan my sessions accordingly. 
Picture
I have many babies in my studio for their newborn photo's and some will arrive asleep, and stay asleep, and some will take a little longer to settle as they require more milk & cuddles - no baby is the same.

I have a variety of poses which help settle babies, and you may be surprised on how many photo's I can achieve with your baby in those poses. 
I have lots of fabric wraps available to keep your baby nice an snug whilst they are awake or asleep, I can place them inside one of our baskets for those adorable above baby shots. 
Our adorable rompers are nice and snug, for your baby to be photographed in too, like this one below.

Picture

Our Bespoke sessions allow plenty of time for your baby to settle, our studio is super comfy and relaxing which helps your baby settle so much easier.

Congratulations! your new baby has arrived!
A much awaited arrival after patiently waiting to meet him and her. 
You have been so busy with prepping for your new arrival, deciding on which pram to purchase, what colour to paint the nursery, not to mention stocking up boxes upon boxes of nappies - that you forgot to book your little one in for their professional newborn photo shoot.

So after searching the internet you are finding that Newborn photo shoots have been booked in advance so there is no sessions available, or you may be even told that a 3 weeks your newborn is too 'old' to be photographed for a 4 hour bespoke photography session.

You only want a few keepsake pictures of your baby at this fleeting time, and every day your baby is growing and changing.
