Hello Mums!
I am finally doing it! I decided to share my knowledge and experience to help you in this new journey with your newborn baby.
Every time I have a newborn session, I am an open book. I speak “baby.” I have been serving Dorset and its surroundings as a newborn photographer for eight years and have photographed over 500 babies! Parents who come to my studio have encouraged me to share my knowledge, and I have listened.
But don’t take just my word for it, have a look at what my clients wrote on Google reviews:
“We first took our daughter back in November 2018 for a newborn shoot and after a difficult birth we were feeling a bit overwhelmed on the day but Alma gave us so much advice and tips that we took back home with us and they massively helped us on our journey as new parents. During the shoot itself, she was so good as our daughter was incredibly fussy and it took a lot longer than planned but she was so patient. We also received a Christmas photo as part of our package and it was super lovely.Alma is definitely our go to photographer and we'll definitely be booking more photoshoots in the future.” - Nina B”

I am starting from Basics - Baby Bottles!
The baby bottle is one thing that every new parent will use at some point, and even if you don’t use it, you will have it at home for “just in case” scenarios.
Bottles will also give new dads a great experience and extra bonding time when feeding their babies.
So, which one to go for? There are so many!!
(this is not a paid gig, guys, and it is purely based on my experience and the experiences of my clients and their recommendations too) and the drum roll, please….. The best bottles voted by my clients, and me are:
- MAM bottles!
Why?
1. Quality. It looks and feels well-made. It has high product safety standards (In fact, they have been awarded by EU Product Safety), works towards better sustainability goals, and the design is very comfortable - I have held quite a few bottles. MAM bottles have an excellent grip on them.
2. Straightforward reason - Babies take it easier, and it causes way less gas and colic if compared to other brands. (they do have a unique technology there, and I am sure if you go to their website, you will be able to read all that, I don’t want to make this blog post too long going into specifics by copy-pasting)
3. BPA-free!
4. My clients talk about them with passion and gratitude, which says it all.
MAM has a MAM club where you can get a 20% welcome voucher, and I have done the leg work for you and got you a link in case you want to check it out: (I am not paid to do this, I am just trying to help )

I hope you enjoyed this quick read; I am only a baby photographer and can only offer the facts I witnessed over time photographing my beautiful little Newborn clients all over Dorset, Wiltshire, Somerset, and even beyond. And if you were expecting a baby and stumbled across my website, please check what we offer and perhaps share it with someone you know would benefit too. Being a small, woman-led business - your support means everything.
Much Love
Alma
