Happy New Year - Welcome 2024!

Happy New Year to everyone! This year, Sarah Fisher Photography is celebrating the milestone of turning 10 years old – a fact for which I am equally excited and grateful!

Normally I have a Cover Star series going on throughout the year but, in honour of my big birthday, I’ve decided to make this one a little different.Every month this year, I’ll be focusing in on one area of my photography. I’ll be…– taking a trip back through the archives– updating some of the services and props (even launching a few new sessions)– gathering together all the advice I can think of that I’ve gathered over the years– and also introducing some very special offers!Roll on 2024 – may it be as fabulous as all of you!Sarah x Read the full article

Self Care is Important

Especially as we head into the colder months of winter, I read more about how important self care for our mental health.

It’s undeniably true and you’re never too young to start as this tiny lady is proving.  There’s always time in your day to carve out a few minutes to simply relax and be in the moment – maybe even throw in a few pampering spa treatments to help things along!My baby spa prop set does require a pretty settled baby in order to make it work but luckily this girl had tapped into her zen for her photo shoot so it worked like a dream.

Newborn Smiles to Start the Week!

Let’s start the week with some positive vibes as modelled by this adorable little guy – smiling away in his sleep at his recent newborn photo shoot.

Of course there is no way to guarantee smiles at your photo shoot but I’m pretty good at spotting when they are likely to happen so I’ll always catch them if I can. Some babies are sneaky and wait til I have my back turned or my camera out of reach but this guy was feeling very generous with them so his mum and dad will have plenty to choose from!

Newborn Hands and Feet

This little shot is a really popular one when it comes to newborn photo shoots and it will work just as well at other small baby shoots if you’ve missed the newborn window.

Many parents want to be involved in their newborn pictures but also don’t feel enitrely camera ready.  My advice would be to do it anyway and you might want to look back on those very first days as a family and it’s a no-risk scenario as, the worst thing that can possibly happen is that you don’t like the pictures. The solution to that is super simple – you never have to look at them again – and so I think it’s a chance worth taking.However, I get that you might fancy it so including a shot like this is a great way to be in the photos without having any stress!

Newborn Prop - Teddy Shelf

Here’s the latest newborn prop to be added to the collection – the Teddy Shelf!

You have to use your imagination a little bit to picture your newborn ‘sitting’ on the shelf between their two teddy bear pals but I promise you it will be super cute. It’s not available to request on your newborn options form that you’ll receive the day before your session. Read the full article

Little Feet in Parents' Hands

This little shot of parents’ hands in a heart around their new arrival’s feet is a very commonly requested shot and it’s easy to see why.

It’s cute in it’s own right but also a good way to be in photos if you don’t feel fully camera ready.  However, it’s one of those shots that looks cute in the edited version but looks pretty daft when you’re setting it up – thought you might like to see the pull-back of how we set it up.  The mum gets the easier of the two options as she can kneel down behind the beanbag while the dad has to do a weird kind of crouching leaning over position to get into place then I just arrange your hands to look like a heart once we get there!As with many things in my studio, it’s a bit silly behind the scenes to get a great result in camera. Probably not a bad metaphor for my life either… Read the full article

Captain America in the Studio!

Sometimes, when you’ve been doing a job as long as I have, it can get a bit repetitive.  Not an issue with my work though, there’s always a surprise round the corner.

In this case, Captain America was in the studio.  Definitely a first for me! Now, to be honest, noone is quite sure why the big brother in question had decided that his new sibling was his ‘Captain America’ baby but he did and so obviously he wanted to dress the part for their first official photo shoot together.  Sometimes, I find, it is best to just go with it and not ask too many questions.  So a quick matching wrap was whipped up and Captain America himself was ready to report for duty.
