If you're looking to capture those once-in-a-lifetime moments with your newborn, we can't recommend White Shadows Photography enough.
Justine went above and beyond to ensure our baby was comfortable and happy throughout the session.
Her studio was really clean and cosy.
We are really happy with the results and will cherish each photograph forever.

Found White Shadows Photography through instagram and booked a Valentines mini session for my 1 year old. It was a wonderful experience from start to end. Justine was very welcoming to us on the day and made a lot of effort to get some smiles from my wary and straightfaced baby. The results of the shoot are absolutely beautiful. Pictures we will treasure forever. We have had very quick responses to any messages sent, with pictures being returned for viewing within 4 days, and all being done for a very reasonable price. Could not be happier. Thankyou very much Justine - we would not hesitate to recommend you to others looking for a photographer.

Justine is the most incredible photographer and is such a friendly, warm and professional lady. My 1 year old had a mini session with her (20 mins) and settled in straight away, with no issues and LOTS of smiles!! Sheās a bit wary of new people usually, so itās a huge compliment to Justine that she was so happy around her instantly. Thank you so much for the amazing photos, which were sent within just a few days! Weāll definitely be visiting again!

What an amazing experience with our new born and family.
Over the moon with out photos. The little details just made all the difference, a baby 'rockit' to gently rock baby whilst he was having his photos taken as well as this a soothing 'shoosher' noise maker and hot water bottles to keep him all toasty. On top of that Justine is a lovely welcoming lady.
Thank you for having us!x

Justine was an absolute superstar. The photos are stunning and the entire experience was really enjoyable. She even managed to bring out some toys to keep my other child occupied so we could focus on the newborn shoot. I wouldnāt hesitate in recommending Justine and have already booked for our Christmas mini shoot. Canāt wait to work with her again.

Fantastic experience with Justine. My son was teething on the day of the photoshoot and she managed to capture his personality in the photos despite his mood. She also made the rest of the family feel really comfortable. Really happy with the images

We attended for a newborn photo shoot when our baby was only 8 days old. Justine had our new born settled, she knew exactly what to do. The whole experience was a calm and peaceful and the photos which capture such a special time of our lives are just beautiful. Thank you for fitting us in and for capturing such a special time for us all. We can look back at years to come of this moment.
I have recommended Justine to family and friends and will continue to do so.

We met Justine two and a half years ago for our newborn photoshoot for our son. She was so wonderful then that we followed her all the way to Folkstone for our newborn shoot for our daughter a few weeks ago. She is a wonderful photographer who gets the best out of the baby, parents and siblings. We are so pleased with our photo shoot - could not recommend more highly. I love the photos so much I'm thinking about having a third baby just to get the photos - just kidding! But she is amazing. Thanks Justine x x x
The mummy and baby photos always get me and you know why? Because I wish I had photos like this to treasure with my own children š„¹ one of my biggest regret is not to have booked someone else to capture my family when my 2 were born š¤
So yes, donāt be like me, and book a photoshoot while theyāre so little, you will NOT regret it š„°
Now taking Bookings up to May 2026 so letās get those due dates pencilled in š

I absolutely loved this yearās mini sessions. Your children were all so good and they are an absolute credit to you. You can be so proud of them and definitely add them on the āgoodā list š„°Those mini sessions really were definitely short but oh so sweet š„¹

Iāve just delivered a beautiful newborn gallery this afternoon, which means Iām officially all caught up on editing. My turnaround time is typically between 5ā15 days because I know how excited you are to discover your precious gallery, and how quickly your little one changes after your visit to the studio š¤

I adore sitter sessions just as much as newborn sessions. This stage is pure magic, your little oneās personality and features are blossoming right before your eyes, and these moments are truly worth capturing š¤
Itās no surprise that many families return to me several times throughout their babyās first year as each milestone is incredibly special š„¹
And if you didnāt get the chance to have a newborn session, sitter sessions are the perfect opportunity to capture beautiful, timeless memories. Itās never too late to celebrate your babyās story š¤
Those two were definitely meant to be brothers. While some siblings might be too little to fully embrace their newest role, others are totally ready for it.
Sibling photos arenāt always easy to capture but I always just go with the flow and encourage you make it fun for your toddler. Forcing them isnāt going to help (the two years old will confirm) so remember to come with no to very little expectations, have fun, embrace the moment and let the magic unfold š¤

Itās all about bringing those memories back in years to come š¤
Itās definitely not just a photograph, itās its ability to make you go back in time for a few seconds and re experience those feelings of the early days. Youāll look at it and suddenly youāll remember what your baby smelled like, all the little stretches and noises they used to make š„¹š¤
Let me capture those sweet memories and create that keepsake for you, you will not regret it š¤

While it is scientifically impossible, thatās definitely how it feels š„¹ isnāt it incredible how much your baby change in that first year? They have learned so much without us realising.
Hereās a list of whatās changed since youāve held that tiny newborn for the first time:
š¤ theyāve rolled, sat, crawled and some are already walking! š¤ the windy smile has turned to giggle and smile on demand š¤ they have teeth (2-6 usually) š¤ they eat everything š¤ they understand instructions (shake, pick it up, eat itā¦) š¤ they say a few words
And all of this within 11-12 months, thatās an awful lot! So donāt be too disheartened if your little one isnāt sleeping too well just yet or appears to be a little grumpy at times, theyāre just too busy learning new skills and adjusting to our world ā¤ļø

The quality of that last photo isnāt as good because I no longer have the original but how special is it that I get to photograph so many babies every year through out their childhood š„¹
Whilst capturing the newborn tiny features is so special, the magic doesnāt stop here. Every milestone that follows like first smiles, first steps, growing personalities is also a chapter worth remembering.
From newborn snuggles to toddler giggles, every stage is beautiful, fleeting, and so worth documenting š¤
