Architectural Couple Shoot – Footsteps Photography, Family Photographer near RAF Mildenhall

I met up with Alicia and Tyler on a beautiful, crisp morning in Cambridge. The crocuses had just started to peak their heads out in anticipation of spring, and there was a dusting of frost on the grass.

Before our session, Alicia revealed that she loves architecture so I knew the universities would provide us with some beautiful backdrops.

As with most of my sessions, I let Tyler and Alicia lead the way for poses making for natural, in the moment shots. Even though it may not have been his favorite thing, Tyler was still a great sport about having his photo taken and making his wife happy!

Tyler and Alicia, you’re a beautiful couple and I had a great time capturing your relationship!

Foggy Maternity and Nautical Newborn Sessions – Footsteps Photography, Maternity and Newborn Photographer near RAF Mildenhall

The Williamson’s joined me on a gorgeous, foggy evening to capture the last few weeks of pregnancy before they welcomed their new baby boy into the family. Mama looked gorgeous in this vibrant shade of purple and long, blonde hair.

Two became three with the arrival of Alexander.

It’s safe to safe Jennifer and Zachary are just a little bit enamored with their new baby boy.

Alexander’s nursery is decorated in red, white and blue so we had some fun incorporating those colors throughout his session.

I adore these sleepy little grins!

And a few last shots of this precious new boy. His parents brought the anchor, a gift from his baby shower, and we can’t wait to use it in his next Grow With Me session as a great size comparison. Welcome to the world, sweet Alexander!

Classic Black & White Newborn Session Sneak Peek – Footsteps Photography

A few months ago on my facebook fan page I had posted a newborn images with her mother in black and white and said that one day I would love to photograph a styled newborn session in nothing but a classic black and white style.  I was thrilled when my return maternity family session messaged me and said their little boy Rowan was here and that they would love to do the a session in Black and white. I’ve got a great love of black and white photography and being able to add the cute and cuddliness of a newborn baby I’m in heaven.

I think that comes from being a formally trained photographer and back in the dark room days of developing my own film and shooting nothing but black and whites.  I’ve got boxes full of old negatives, prints, contact sheets and past projects in storage somewhere.  The other day I pulled these film cartridges out of an old camera bag and found one still with undeveloped unprocessed film on it from the bulk film loading day where I purchased my film in 1000shot rolls and wound it onto film cartridges.


Cameras have came a long way in just the 13 some odd years since I used my first film camera the Pentax K1000. Today I shoot with a digital Canon 5D Mark iii camera and a variety of lenses. This image below was shot with a 50mm lens, my still all time favorite lens. So for this session I wanted to try something different, I photographed the entire session in monochromatic.

More images coming, these are just the sneak peek for you all.

Jewel Tones Newborn Girl Session – Footsteps Photography, Newborn Photographer near RAF Mildenhall

Cora James has beautiful black hair and gorgeous caramel skin that seems like it was made for jewel tones.

She’s also lucky to have a very talented mama who made her this beautiful quilt.

Cora joins two older siblings; no doubt she will be the princess of the family!

Such a strikingly gorgeous little girl; I can’t wait to watch her grow!

Pure and Innocence Maternity and Newborn Session – Footsteps Photography, Maternity and Newborn Photographer near RAF Mildenhall

This is a double dose of cute as I was able to shoot a maternity session as well as a newborn session for this sweet trio of girls.

The transition from being an only child to a big sister is a major change. This was a thoughtful way to make big sister feel important. And I love how this maternity shoot captured the special bond between Mom and her firstborn as well as the excitement of the sister to come. This family just radiates love and laughter!

Philippa finally made her appearance and is every bit as gorgeous as her big sister. No doubt these two are related!

We stuck to a neutral, tone-on-tone palette for this shoot and I think it lends a very pure and innocent feel to the shots. Perfect fit for a newborn baby girl and capturing all those lovely (and quickly changing) details.

Knowing they have to move frequently, Mom said she would prefer a neutral color scheme so the photos will match with any home or decor they may encounter. I love helping clients choose color schemes that fit you and your home so your photos become a piece of ART on your walls. If you need help picking out outfits for your next shoot, let me know!

I’m already looking forward to seeing these beautiful girls again for their family session this fall!

Black and White Film-style Newborn Session – Footsteps Photography, Newborn Photographer near RAF Mildenhall

I have another great black and white session for you today! Wanting to switch things up a bit, I posted on my Facebook page that I was looking for someone interested in doing an entire shoot in black and white. The Hillard family answered my call and I’m sure you’ll agree that the results are something truly special.

I really wanted to achieve a classic, film feel with this session. All photos were shot in-camera as black and white, allowing me to adjust contrast and saturation for each set up.

The Hillards chose to wait to find out Rowan’s gender until birth so shooting in black and white also gave me a great opportunity to focus on all the sweet details of this new bundle rather than making it a gender specific shoot.

Flaky little toes, squishy lips and delicate eyelashes. Is it any wonder I love photographing newborns?!

Gorgeous baby, beautiful sleepy smile. Welcome to the world, Rowan!
