What you’ll experience

Why choose Newborn session in Marbella?

A newborn session at home has one non-negotiable: the room has to be warm enough for a baby to sleep undressed. On the Costa del Sol that means opposite things in different months. In a July or August flat the air-conditioning that keeps the house bearable is the first thing we ask to switch off, because of the draught and the noise, and the window light has to be managed against hard midday glare. In January, with 17 to 19 degrees outside and a lot of homes on this coast without central heating, we ask for a portable heater running an hour before. Whitewashed walls and tiled floors bounce plenty of soft window light into the room, so there is little to add.

When to book in Marbella

Within the first two weeks, when babies sleep deeply and curl easily; book in advance using the due date, and confirm after the birth. Within the day, late morning is usually best: the window light is bright but soft and the house is warm. In summer we often prefer the morning before the heat builds, so the room can be warm without being stifling once the air conditioning is off. A newborn photographer plans for two hours because feeds and changes are part of the session, not interruptions.

Marbella guide

At home, always. It saves a trip with a baby a few days old and keeps the session around your feeds. Within the house the choice is made by the light. We look for the biggest window that does not get direct sun at the time of the session, usually on the north or east side, and set up a bed or a blanket beside it; in many homes on this coast that is the main bedroom or a living room opening onto a terrace. Villas with wide glass to the sea often have too much light at midday, so we draw a sheer curtain or move to a room on the shaded side. Apartments in town, with smaller windows and whitewashed walls, frequently give the softest light in the house. A newborn photographer coming to your home needs very little: a space of two by two metres near the window, a heater or air conditioner we can control, and a place to wash hands.

FAQ — Newborn session in Marbella

It is August. Do you really need the air-conditioning off?

For the length of the session, yes. A newborn sleeps deeply only when warm and undressed, and a cold draught on bare skin wakes them. Cool the house beforehand and switch the unit off when we start. If the room gets too hot, we stop and put the AC back on.

Can older siblings and grandparents be in the photographs?

Yes. We photograph the siblings first, while they are fresh, and the grandparents at the end, often seated on a sofa with the baby in their arms. Let us know who will be there so we can plan the order around the feeds.

We have just moved here and have no props. Do you bring them?

We bring a few neutral wraps and blankets. Most families prefer the baby in their own things: a knitted blanket from a grandmother, your own bed, a parent’s hands. Those are the photographs people keep looking at.
