Booking a baby photographer in Dublin

Are you craving a moment just for you and your precious little one? A time to unwind, away from the endless tasks? This moment is for you and your baby, to capture motherhood in all its beauty. To be present in the photos with your baby, creating treasured memories that will remind you of these moments. This mama wanted to preserve the memory of breastfeeding, and her little one before he started taking his first steps. As a lover of beautiful images, she chose to have a professional baby photography session.

Her session was in the morning, and when I arrived, her little one was just finishing his nap. We took this quiet time to chat and exchange stories of motherhood. My own kids were older then—they slept through the night thank goodness—but I remember those days well! She showed me the lovely albums she printed each year. Displayed on the front door, I saw drawings and photos from her eldest daughter, who was at school that morning. She went to the baby’s room and returned with her little one, all cozy and warm from his sleep. It was time for a feed, and my documentary work began.

One and a half hours of quality, self-care time

You care for your little one as you always do: changing, nursing, feeding, and then perhaps a lullaby, a gentle rock, or a cuddle. We take the time needed so that you’re at ease, relaxed, and that your baby’s routine stays just as it should.

While you do, I capture all the things that matter: those tiny gestures, the smiles, the bond between you two. But it’s more than just those moments—I also capture the little details, like the cat watching out the window, your tea cup resting on the table, the tiny socks drying in the bathroom, or the colorful toys in the living room corner. Right now, these may seem like everyday, mundane things, but years from now, it’ll bring a smile to your face and mean the world.

Why choose your home for your mother-baby photo session

Well, first of all, it’s more comfortable. Your home is where your baby feels most secure, surrounded by familiar sounds, scents, and a cozy environment. This helps ensure they are in the best mindset for a calm, intimate moment with you.

For you, it’s also less hassle! No transportation to worry about, no car to park, and no heavy bags to carry. You can prepare your home at your own pace in the days leading up to the session. And if your baby needs anything, it’s all right there within reach!

And most importantly, it’s your personal haven. It’s where your little one will proudly celebrate that first tooth and first steps. Both you and your child will be immensely grateful to have photographs capturing all the details that made your home unique. This is HER home, the little bird nest you’ve created for her.

Childhood homes hold a bit of magic for every child. Gift them with soft, velvety albums filled with these memories, just like this mother did.
