Tiny details, timeless memories

Your baby will only be this little once. My newborn sessions are designed to beautifully preserve these fleeting first weeks so you can cherish them forever

As an award-winning newborn photographer, I specialise in creating a relaxed experience for both baby and parents. With years of expertise, I know how to safely and gently pose newborns while capturing their tiny features and sweet expressions. My cosy home studio in Cambridge is fully set up with everything you’ll need, so you can simply come in, relax, and enjoy the moment. I am safety trained to handle newborns and I'm also an Accredited Professional Photographer with the New Zealand Institute of Professional Photography (NZIPP), a recognition of the professional standards, skill and expertise behind my work.

THE NEWBORN EXPERIENCE

 

Because they're only this little once

Those first few weeks with your baby are a beautiful blur of tiny fingers, sleepy cuddles and a love unlike anything you've ever known. It's a chapter that passes all too quickly, and one that deserves to be remembered forever.


My newborn sessions are thoughtfully designed to be a calm, relaxed and beautiful experience for your whole family. From the tiniest details to those precious first moments together, I'll capture the love, connection and wonder of welcoming your little one into the world.


Your experience includes:

  • A Warm, Welcoming Studio: Enjoy a peaceful, comfortable environment in my Cambridge studio, thoughtfully prepared with your newborn's comfort in mind.
  • Beautiful Newborn Wraps & Accessories: Access to my carefully curated collection of soft wraps, delicate accessories and timeless pieces, selected to complement your baby's natural beauty.
  • Exclusive Client Wardrobe for Mothers: Choose from a beautiful collection of flattering dresses and gowns, so you can feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.
  • Personalised Styling Guidance: I'll help you coordinate outfits for the whole family, creating a beautifully cohesive look without the stress.
  • Gentle, Baby-Led Sessions: Your baby's comfort and wellbeing always come first. There's plenty of time for feeding, cuddles and settling, with no pressure to rush.
  • Your Whole Family Is Welcome: Parents and siblings are warmly encouraged to join in, capturing those first precious connections together at no additional cost.
  • A Personalised Gallery Reveal: Enjoy a relaxed viewing appointment, either in person or virtually, where you'll select your favourite portraits and explore beautiful artwork to treasure for generations.
  • All you need to do is arrive, settle in and soak up these beautiful moments with your baby. I'll take care of the rest.

Newborns are unpredictable, and that’s okay; my sessions are never rushed. Your baby sets the pace, and I’ll work gently around their needs.

I just want to Thank Adele for the two beautiful photo shoots we have had. Maternity and Newborn. The photo's are absolutely stunning and couldn't be any happier with them! Adele made us feel so comfortable and relaxed during the whole experience (especially the newborn shoot, I was confident with everything she was doing). I would definitely recommend to anyone that is wanting any type of professional photos done, Adele is a perfectionist x

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolute magic! We booked Adele for a newborn session for our little girl, and the entire experience was absolutely flawless. Walking into her cosy studio in Cambridge, we instantly felt at ease. Adele has a beautiful, calm, and nurturing attitude that made our session feel so relaxed and completely unhurried.

She is an absolute baby whisperer! Her safety-first approach and gentle patience while settling and wrapping our baby girl gave us total confidence. A major highlight was her incredible client wardrobe—she has an amazing selection of stunning clothes, delicate wraps, and high-quality props, so we didn't have to worry about bringing a thing.

The final hand-edited photos are breathtakingly timeless masterpieces that capture every single tiny detail perfectly. If you are looking for a professional photographer who is a true perfectionist and lovely to work with, look no further than Adele at White Locket Photography. We will treasure these portraits forever! ❤️

We had a wonderful newborn session with Adele. As first-time parents, we were quite nervous, but she made the whole experience feel calm and reassuring. Her studio was beautifully set up and ready for baby and she was very prompt, patient, and accommodating throughout. We never felt rushed, which made the session relaxed and enjoyable. The pictures are incredible and truly capture these precious early moments beautifully ✨We’re so glad we chose her for this special time
