When it comes to newborn photography, soft neutral tones never go out of style. They create a calm, timeless look that focuses all the attention on your baby – their tiny features, delicate skin, and those first sleepy expressions you’ll never want to forget.
This moodboard is designed to inspire parents who love a minimal, natural aesthetic. Think warm creams, gentle beige, soft whites and subtle greys – colours that feel both peaceful and elegant. These tones complement all skin types beautifully, and they work well in both close-up baby portraits and relaxed family images.
At my garden studio in Anna Valley near Andover, I’ve carefully chosen props, wraps, headbands and backgrounds to suit this style. From knitted bonnets and textured blankets to timeless family setups, everything is designed to help your newborn shine without overwhelming them with fuss or colour.
You don’t need to plan every detail – I’ll guide you through options based on what suits your taste, home décor, and your baby’s comfort. Whether you're after a minimalist white-on-white setup or a cosy layered look with soft textures, we'll create something truly personal.
If this gentle, neutral look speaks to you, I’d love to help you capture it. I offer calm, baby-led sessions with plenty of time for feeds, cuddles and rest, so there’s never any rush.
Thinking ahead?
Newborn photos are best taken in the first 2–3 weeks after birth, so it’s a good idea to book during pregnancy. Every newborn booking includes a free mini maternity shoot too – a lovely way to celebrate the journey before your baby arrives.
