Emotional priceless pictures
Newborn photography is about connection, warm colours, mid-tones and black & white. My newborn session is a tale of dreaming and nurturing. Beauty is so powerful and yet so simple. I'll document all the candid moments that comes out from interactions, all the delicate gestures that return the magical and unrepeatable atmosphere that reigns in a house with a newly arrived. That's why, as a photographer, I highly recommend shooting your session at your home. You'll have all you need for an honest reportage of the best milestone of your life.
The newborn photographs are a rare opportunity to taste what makes your family unique because every little one expresses a long story of legacy bounds. The result of a newborn photoshoot is splendidly unpredictable because it is an elusive performance.
Perhaps it is the type of service where it is most important to have an attentive, sensitive and professional photographer. From my point of view, I try to make my gaze visible as little as possible to let the spirit of your family freely emerge. I adore my ghost-writer role in your family book.
Pennypics Baby, Children and Family Gallery
Children can get into the mood of a photo session spontaneously. They are naturally conscious and gifted models. They will be the ones to introduce you to their world in a short time with the right approach. My job is to listen to them, indulge them and let them express themselves freely. Simply. The feeling becomes playful and, at the same time, so creative. With a gentle and non-intrusive attitude, I will limit myself from time to time to direct them towards the best and captivating sources of natural light present on set.
Photo sessions with babies and children are so fulfilling. The reward for "being a child again", at least for a while, will be a mix of stunning spontaneous photos and poses surprisingly emotional in terms of intensity, a beautiful and everlasting photo gallery.

Penny's hints for you
Helping your photos to stand out
We know how spontaneous children are at posing. Now, we need to boost their natural flair for posing with some tips and hints that enrich the final styling of the images. As for the right location, I can only suggest places where you know your children are comfortable. Do they spend a lot of time in their playroom? or not? Wherever the playroom is, this is the right spot to start. No matter the size of the rooms because baby and children photography is, in a nutshell, capturing close and intimate frames. Catching the light and the children's feelings is the key to raise the level of your photoshoot.
Shall we talk about outdoor sessions?
If your child has never experienced a swing, for instance, it's never a good idea to let him discover it on the day of the photoshoot. The same applies to props and outfits. Long story short, sometimes what you need is only a few small expedients that save your day and your shooting.
Remember that I am available to clarify all your doubts and give guidance to help you to benefit from your photo session. That's useful, free of charge, and a to-do action often under-evaluated.

A few small choices made in advance make a big difference.
