The best photographer!

Newborn photoshoot Preston
How to choose the best photographer in Preston, the perfect match for you and your family? That question is difficult and not many people know how to find the right photographer for themselves. There is so many new, unexperienced “photographers” that you may end up being not happy with your photos. I’m going to try to answer to that question but also explain you how I work with my clients and why they come back to me, why you should trust me.
Choosing a photographer is exciting but also bit stressful as usually you don’t know who is behind the beautiful photos so first thing what I would recommend is:
- ask your family and friends for referrals
- search online for photographers and check their reviews, “about me” page, check if they have some photos of themself on the website so you can see who you will be working with
It is important to find the best match for yourself as those pictures you will treasure for life, you have one chance to do newborn session as babies grow too quick and when you receive the photos from photographer and you are not happy with them, your baby will be already too old for another newborn session.
Check their galleries.
Their work should sing to you, you should “feel something” looking at their pictures. You will be coming back to your baby photos for years and think about the feeling you will have, most of my customers cry when watching their baby photos. They change so quick that you will be happy you have those little feet, hands etc captured. You can find my newborn gallery here.
Their qualifications and newborn safety.
Choosing not experienced and not qualified photographer means putting your baby in a risk. Newborn session might be bit stressful on the begin and imagine giving your baby to the person you can’t trust.
I am qualified, insured and I have done loads of courses about newborn safety, posing etc. I am in this business since 5 years, I photograph hundreds babies every year.
Do you know that baby should never be left to support their own head weight or be left to balance on their own. That’s why I know many composite techniques so I can deliver some people’s favourite poses by editing them in Photoshop.
Check if they are insured.
I hope you will not need to use their insurance.
What the photographer provide for the session.
Do they have a studio with loads of props or you need to provide it yourself.
I provide all the props and outfits for newborn sessions, I have some outfits for older kids and maternity dresses too so you can always message me to check if I have size of your baby or yours booking maternity photoshoot.
I have my own studio in Preston city centre and that’s where I do newborn baby photoshoots.
Budget.
The last thing is to check their pricing. A professional newborn photographer, qualified, experienced will cost you a few hundred pounds. It’s true that you get what you pay for.
The cheap photographer will not put so much love, passion, time creating your beautiful pictures, you will get so many digital photos from them but you will not be proud of them. You want your baby photos to be art, you want to put it on the wall so everyone can admire and it will be decoration on your wall.
I have been contacted so many times to book last minute as people chose the cheap photographer and been disappointed. You don’t want to feel this way. This needs to be beautiful experienced.
The photos are really worth the investment!
