New Born

Photographer Newborn in Strasbourg, Alsace-Vosges and everywhere in France since 2012.

They grow so fast...

Welcoming your new baby into the world is one of the most moving and incredible moments of your life; I seek to capture these moments and document them for you to keep forever.

The first few weeks with your newborn are such a magical time; a whirlwind of love and emotion. And they pass in the blink of an eye!

The art of photography is to freeze a moment that lasts a fraction of a second and, once on paper, it has the power to let you relive those incredible moments, to immerse you in the emotions you may have experienced at such a special time in your life. These photos will be your most precious possessions.

The newborn sessions take place at your home. It is important to me that we respect your baby's rhythm so that he feels at his best. My approach is to photograph you in your natural cocoon and capture the bond between you.

"This is your story. This is the beginning of your child's story."

Newborn sessions

The experience

The newborn sessions are done at your home so as not to disturb your baby. My photographic approach is gentle, I go at the pace of your baby. I will adapt to the baby’s needs and we will create memories together. I will capture beautiful photos of your new baby, his/her siblings and the whole family together.

The answer

To your questions

When should I book my newborn photo session?

For newborn photo sessions, I recommend booking your session from the 8th month of pregnancy. This may seem early, but it guarantees my availability for your baby's arrival.

When you book, we will set a date (usually 10 days after your due date) that can be moved if your baby is born earlier or later than expected, or if you need more time to recover. I am very flexible, so if you feel you need more time to settle into your new family life, that is entirely possible.

If you've recently had a baby and are only now thinking about photos, don't hesitate to contact me.

When is the best time to do my newborn photo shoot?

I love photographing newborns and am very flexible about when the session takes place.

If you would like to photograph your baby when he or she is still a newborn, you can schedule the session starting at day 10. At this age, you can expect your baby to be asleep for much of the session.

If you prefer to give yourself a little more time to settle into your new family life, that's fine. As the days and weeks go by, your baby will become more alert and stay awake longer, allowing me to capture more bonding and maybe even some smiles. Regardless of your baby's age, my promise is to create a multitude of beautiful memories.

What if our home isn't perfect?

If your home doesn't look like it belongs in the pages of an interior magazine, don't let an in-home photo shoot deter you. Over the past ten years, I've photographed families in homes of all shapes, sizes, and decorating styles - including small apartments . I can create beautiful stories in any home and in any lighting condition, because I believe that beauty and light are everywhere if you look for them. Your home is your safe place and the foundation of your children's memories, so it is the most natural setting for your photo shoot.

What should we wear?

Your personal style is who you are, so dress for the shoot the way you feel best. It is important to look at the photos and see you and your children as you really were all those years ago, rather than people dressed for the occasion.

If you want the photos to have a harmonious aesthetic, you can think about the colours and shades of your family's clothing. A simple and effective rule is to co-ordinate but not match. For young babies, I recommend soft colors and pastel shades.

What is your style?

For me, the perfect photo is not the one where you are all looking at the camera with forced smiles, but the one where you are in a tangle of arms and laughter, showing the essence of your family life. I tell the story of your family life and the ties that bind you.

To put you at ease and document your family life in the most honest way possible, I let my sessions unfold at your baby/child's pace. From time to time, I will give some instructions on how to use the best natural light and put you at ease. But overall, I will take the time to let you be yourself in order to capture spontaneous and meaningful memories as the session unfolds.
