Why choose Irene Chaikeen as your Newborn Photographer?
When entrusting someone with your baby’s first portraits, every detail matters, not just artistry, but safety, expertise, and an unwavering commitment to your peace of mind. Here’s why discerning parents across Buckhurst Hill, Chigwell, Loughton, and Essex choose me:
1. Uncompromising safety. Because your baby deserves nothing less.
- Medical-Grade Hygiene: Every wrap, prop, and surface is sanitised to hospital standards before your session.
- Certified Newborn Specialist: Trained in safe posing (APNI or BANPAS-accredited techniques).
- Health Vigilance: Fully vaccinated (including whooping cough) and illness-free studio policies.
2. A Studio designed for comfort, not just aesthetics.
- Warm, Quiet & Private: Unlike crowded commercial studios, my home studio is a calm oasis with blackout curtains, temperature control, and noise reduction to keep your baby soothed.
- No rushed sessions: I book one newborn session per day, ensuring patience and adaptability to your baby’s needs (and your coffee breaks).
3. Timeless artistry, not just “Photos”.
Heirloom Quality: From hand-edited images to archival-grade prints, your gallery is crafted to last generations, not cheap digital files forgotten on a USB.
Your Style, Honed to Perfection: During our pre-session consult, we’ll design a palette and mood that aligns with your home’s aesthetic, whether minimalist, organic, or classic.
4. The “Irene” Difference: Experience You Can Feel.
- 10 Years of Trust: Hundreds of newborns photographed, with a portfolio showcasing consistency and evolution.
- No Hidden Costs: Transparent pricing with inclusive packages because stress shouldn’t start after the session.
- A Reputation for Care: Parents highlight my patience, warmth, and ability to soothe even the most restless babies.
5. Beyond the Session. A Seamless Experience.
- In-Person Viewing: Unlike competitors who send impersonal online galleries, I guide you through selecting your favourites in-studio, ensuring perfect prints and albums.
- Personal Studio Handover: I ensure a premium, start-to-finish service from the design of your wall art to its completion. The process culminates in a personal handover at my studio, where I proudly present your finished artwork to you directly.
The secret isn’t the camera, it’s the hands holding it. Newborn photography represents the highest level of trust. It requires technical mastery, gentle care, and an artist’s eye that captures the spirit.
This comprehensive philosophy is what my clients seek. It’s the reason they return for every milestone and refer me to their closest friends. You invest in more than a photoshoot; you gain an experience infused with attention and heartfelt warmth.
