Jagroop and his first family photo shoot

We were very pleased to hear that Jagroop had arrived and could not wait to meet the little man. We were also delighted to get to meet and photograph little man along with his family. Newborn photos are so very important and I consider ourselves very privileged to be able to photograph them.

We started our shoot as always by getting the little man to sleep. To be honest this was super easy and Mum had him sorted in no time. We started with a little striped outfit and then moved oil to a few different ones through the shoot. Our aim was always to include the family with this shoot and we did just that. After the main event we photographed lots with mum and dad and then both grandmas and grandad too. It was the most special shoot and one that we absolutely loved.

It was an absolute joy to photograph this little man. The special blanket we used was given to him by the wonderful midwives at Princess Anne.

COVID RESTRICTIONS and what they mean here at JPP…..

During this lockdown there are certain things we are able to do so please contact us if you are after anything. I hope to be working again albeit limited. But we are taking nothing for granted. Our work practice will be a little different but we are still the same fun loving photographers.

Everybody is temperature checked on arrival with a calibrated contactless temperature gun. We have a strict regime to keep us all safe and it does not take more than a few seconds. I actually think this will be the way forward into the future too.

We also have new PPE stations with contactless hand sanitiser in both studio and entrance hall and anti bacterial hand wash in the bathroom too. We also have gloves and masks for us to wear during our shoots and handovers. For children shoots we will wear our super snazzy super heroes or Disney masks to keep us all safe so you can rest assured we have your best interests at heart.

We ask you to wear a mask on arrival and until your temperature is checked. Once inside our spacious studio you can remove your mask if required but we will keep ours on especially when working with newborns and infants.

If you have any questions or would like to book then please call me on 02380 767084

Please try to support us if you can. We have had 4 long months so far with out an income.

We cant wait to be able to welcome you all back again without restrictions.

Are the Disney themed props part of the newborn photoshoot?

Yes they are and all themes are included at no extra cost. We have most Disney characters with matching bunting. Peter Rabbit with bunting and Paddington bear with bunting. Its absolutely awesome to get a few with all or with your favourite characters. You are of course welcome to bring your own along too if you prefer.

What do we bring to a newborn photoshoot?

This is our most common question with new mums. Well Sue and I have a huge studio full of beautiful baskets, swings and beanbag props for new babies. We also have all the little outfits that you see on our website, we have 2 of most for twins too. We also have a few soft toys and lots of special blankets and rugs. We have full changing facilities too and a Mummy and Baby room although we are 100% happy for you to change and feed baby in the comfort of the studio whilst having a cuppa from our free and pretty cool coffee machine or indeed catching up on facebook with our free wifi.

So to answer the question. Extra nappies is always a great idea, probably for a couple of years not just the photoshoot Plus extra milk, if your feeding baby yourself then its not a problem but if you bottle feed either full time or even just at night then its handy to bring some spare milk because newborns sometimes take a bottle easier in a strange environment. Other than that we are all covered.

How do you create the right environment?

We had already started by creating the right environment for our babies. Our studio is warm, comfortable and safe and filled with the scent of our specially blended Aromatherapy oils it is just perfect for babies. Our props are all warmed in preparation so there are no unexpected cold areas for babies delicate skin. No shocks to wake them or disturb their perfect slumber. Most of all we allow time, lots of time for you to relax and baby to feel safe and happy.

What if we never booked a newborn shoot, is it too late to book now?

Surely there must be hidden extras?

Absolutely not. Sue and I sell our photo packages just like we prefer to buy things, that is everything upfront and honest. Every package we offer from newborns, cake shoots and family shoots comes with all of the photos that we take (minus any mistakes or blinkers etc) and they are all high resolution 300dpi ready to print and share with family and friends. That means afterwards you can pop along to your local printers and buy prints or a canvas which is super important if you live away or if your parents live away and they want photos or any album, you just forward the download link that we send you.

Some photographers offer newborn shoots for £95 but you don’t get any photos. Or £150.00 and you get a very small selection of photos. Either way you are forced to walk away with very little or indeed nothing or you pay hundreds and maybe thousands afterwards. With us our Newborn shoots are £275.00 and you Get everything we take, often close to 100 beautiful photos. With our cake shoot smash and splash its £200.00 including the cake and photos.
