The Newborn Collection



First days. First Memories. Forever treasured.


Newborn sessions at Memory Lane Studio are calm, baby-led experiences designed to preserve your baby's earliest details and your family's newest chapter together.

When should I book my newborn session?

Newborn sessions are best photographed within the first two weeks after birth, while babies are still naturally sleepy and curled. Most families book shortly after their 12-week scan to secure availability around their due date. Your session date is then confirmed once baby arrives.

When should I book?

Newborn sessions are best photographed within the first two to three weeks after birth. Most families reserve their session during pregnancy to ensure availability. A small number of newborn sessions are reserved each month to allow a calm, flexible experience for every family.

What to Expect at Your Session

Sessions take place in my calm, softly styled studio in Thorpe-le-Soken and are completely baby-led, allowing plenty of time for feeding, settling, and cuddles.


Everything is designed to feel relaxed and unhurried so your experience is just as special as the images we create together.

Including Parents & Siblings

Many families choose to include parent and sibling portraits during their newborn session (The Family Edition) to preserve this special stage together. These images often become some of the most treasured.

Additional digital photos are available to add on for £5 per photo.

A £50 session retainer secures your booking, with the remaining balance due on the day of your session.
