Top 50 mid-century Victorian baby names
The Gothic revival was one of the foremost trends of the Victorian era. The Victorians loved myths and legends, which fed into the romance of the pre-raphaelites and gothic literature, while a fascination with magic permeated all aspects of Victorian life, from architecture to clothing and most certainly names!

Welcoming a newborn into your family is a truly life-changing experience. Capturing this moment of love, amazement and vulnerability in all its facets is where we come in. Opting for professional photography to capture the raw beauty of your little one’s first few days is one of the best investments you can make.
The best time to capture your newborn is within the first 14 days of their life. That’s when your newborn still confuses day and night, spoils you with the cutest facial expressions and curls up in that signature position. It’s best to plan ahead and book a tentative date while you are pregnant that we can firm up once your precious bub has arrived.
Many families choose to combine their newborn shoot with a mini family session so you get the best of both worlds! In the first part of the shoot, it’s all about your newborn. We’ll use accessories and props to create truly stunning photos with your bub taking centre stage. The second part is all about those family cuddles and capturing the excitement of parents, siblings and any extended family or pets.
We allow up to 3 hours for your professional newborn photography session, which takes the pressure off and puts everyone at ease that we’ll get the perfect shot. We know that bub needs to feed and might decide to play up. Rest assured that years of newborn photography have turned us into baby whisperers with a magical skill to please even the fussiest of newborns.
