Welcome to the Babies By Jackie Studio! Located in the historic village of Hemingbrough, the studio was once a pig sty (hence the name!). But don't worry there's only one little piggy there now :-) Relax in our cosy sitting area where you can see your baby and they can see you at all times. Chill out on our super comfortable sofa, while I take care of your little one. You can even have forty winks if you like - you won't be the first! The safety of all my clients is paramount at all times. Hand sanitiser is always to hand, and as you can see I am proud of my professional newborn To View More >>

I get a lot of people asking when they should book their newborn photo session, and my answer is always the same: before baby arrives and the sooner the better! The ideal time to confirm your booking is towards the end of the second trimester, when you have had most of your scans and you have a reasonably accurate due date. “But what if my baby arrives early or late?” Don’t worry, it happens all the time!
