BABY SESSION
Your Baby’s First Year, Beautifully Documented in Outstanding Photography
The first year goes fast!
From the first big smiles to confident first steps.
Our Artis Baby Club is a bespoke portrait experience capturing your little one at three milestone stages:
-
![]()
Little ones
Around 4–5 months
Capturing those early baby days when everything still feels new.
This first session is soft, simple, and intimate. Often photographed in the studio with natural tones, this is where we capture their tiny details, gentle expressions, and early family connections. Babies are usually photographed with minimal clothing — to highlight how small, squishy, and baby-like they still are.

The Sitting Stage
7–9 Months
Playful, expressive, and full of personality.
This shoot is all about movement and interaction — we introduce props, outfit changes, and a more playful environment as babies are able to sit confidently and engage with the world around them. It’s the perfect stage to showcase their unique character and chubby-cheeked charm.

Little Explorers
12–18 Months
Out and about, full of energy, curiosity, and wonder.
Our final session takes place on location, tailored to your baby’s adventurous spirit. Whether they’re toddling through the park or exploring a garden, we’ll create portraits that reflect this exciting, on-the-move stage — capturing their independence, cheeky smiles, and love for discovery.

"We have been going to Artis Studios for many years. The team are fantastic, make you feel relaxed and both studio and on location shoots have been good fun, Hannah gets the best out of you. We have had a family shoot, pet shoot and now cherubs shoot for our son. The viewing is relaxing and Kat is very helpful."

"I recently purchased the baby photoshoot package and it was the best decision I ever made. Everything was perfect, from how comfortable we were made to feel on the photoshoots, to how the photos were edited and the final prints at the end. They’re amazing at what they do, and we are so grateful to have these perfect photos showing our sons first year. Thank you so much and would absolutely recommend!"

"We are not the type of people who enjoy having photos taken or posing but we really enjoyed this photo shoot. We had lots of fun and our baby thought is was just wonderful. As a result we got some amazing photos and the quality is just perfect. I'm so glad we done it as they really managed to capture not only our best side but the smiles and personality of our 4 month old too. Highly recommend."

"We have been in love with Artis Studios since 2016 when they took the most beautiful photos for our engagement shoot and wedding; listening to what we wanted and understanding that we wanted natural photographs. Since then we have continued to go to them for our new born baby shoot and baby club shoot and will continue to use them for all of our special family memories. They have even captured the most adorable photos of our cocker spaniel which we can treasure. We cannot recommend Kat & Hannah enough, they are so friendly, professional and approachable and we would not have our photographs taken by anyone else."
