Newborn Photography Lisburn

Capturing the First Moments of Your Baby’s Story

PHOTOGRAPHY STUDIO

Bringing a new baby into the world is one of life’s most extraordinary experiences. In those early days. When everything feels tender, fleeting and emotionally overwhelming, parents want to hold onto every precious detail. At The Little Light Studio, we specialise in newborn photography in Belfast and Lisburn, creating soft, timeless portraits that feel as gentle and intimate as your baby’s first moments.

Whether you’re welcoming your first little one or completing your family, our newborn sessions are designed to honour the beauty, fragility and emotion of this chapter.

Why choose newborn photography?

Because these tiny days don’t last.

Newborns change more in their first month than at any other time. Tiny fingers, curled toes, sleepy stretches and soft expressions disappear almost overnight. Professional newborn photography preserves these once-in-a-lifetime details in beautiful, artistic portraits that become family treasures.

Why Location Matters & How to Prepare

Newborn Photography Belfast – Why Location Matters

Although our private studio is based in Lisburn, we intentionally position our services for Belfast families because we are:

  • Just 15 minutes from Belfast city centre.
  • Easy parking right outside the studio door.
  • Quiet, peaceful and distraction-free studio setting.
  • Safe, clean, temperature-controlled space designed for newborns.

Many Belfast parents prefer coming to Lisburn because the environment is calmer and more studio-controlled, ideal for relaxed, sleepy newborn sessions.

Tips for a Perfect Newborn Photoshoot

  • 01 Keep baby awake before the session (if possible) This helps promote longer, deeper sleep once we start shooting.
  • 02 Feed baby just before arrival A full tummy usually means a sleepy, settled newborn.
  • 03 Dress baby in loose clothing Avoid tight socks or outfits that leave marks on baby’s skin.
  • 04 Bring extra milk Whether breastfeeding or bottle feeding, having more than you think you’ll need is always helpful.
  • 05 Relax Babies feel what you feel. If you’re calm and unhurried, they pick up on that energy too.

Our sessions are designed to feel peaceful and unhurried, giving everyone time to breathe, cuddle and settle in.
