WELCOME TO GABRIELLE DAVIES PHOTOGRAPHY
I’m Gabby. A photo obsessed Mama to a handsome (If I do say so myself) baby boy and two fur babies.
First of all, thank you so much for getting in touch with myself to capture your precious memories.
You have made the first step in your journey by reaching out, and by doing so means that you are so ready for me to capture your love and connection in a series of beautifully curated timeless imagery.
I truly believe that every stage is worthy of being documented. From the start of your pregnancy journey, their arrival, their first Birthdays, all of the bits in-between and onwards!
My professional yet cosy studio is a home from home; based in the heart of Wrexham, and equipped with absolutely everything you should require for yourselves and your little ones during your visit.
The studio is a calm environment, providing warmth and relaxation. Fully equipped with 3 studio rooms and a play room for little ones who need some time for fun.
Please take a read through, I cannot wait to see you so

AN EXPERIENCE LIKE NO OTHER
About
Your newborn session with me
Renowned for creating the most memorable experience for you and your family - and often deemed the baby whisperer or poached to come home as the night nanny!
This is your time to really relax, sit back and take it all in.
We can chat (as much or as little as you’d like), drink tea, and I will be goofy around your older kiddies to catch some laughs!
Often enough, this is the first (or one of the first) outings with your new addition - and as a mother, I know first hand how daunting it may feel.
”What if baby cries? How can I time the feeds? What do I need to bring? Have I packed everything I need in the bag? Did I pack spare nappies?”
Please relax, rest assured I can help you and will have it all under control. I have been photographing newborns & babies for 10+ years and have my own divas to contend with too - I always win! Plus, the studio is equipped with back ups of wipes, nappies, creams etc too.
My sessions are baby led, and although a professional and an expert in baby posing - I use minimal posing throughout the session, but instead apply these skills to help soothe and guide yourselves and your little ones. I prefer to photograph your baby exactly how they are.
I have a large selection of stunning wraps, blankets and outfits to use during your session - all you need to bring is yourselves - and supply the baby milk!
WHAT TO EXPECT
MY STYLE
Modern simplicity, Raw & Timeless.
I am a sucker for those tiny details that you’ll never want to forget.
The lashes, tiny toes and finger nails, the texture of their skin,
baby fluff, and those pouty lips.
I also adore getting yourselves and siblings involved.
Even if it’s just getting your hands within the photos,
holding onto baby.
I can gaurantee you will never regret getting in the photos.
AVAILABILITY
Each month, I take on a maximum capacity of 5 “Due Dates”
and my diary is extremely exclusive.
Babies are unpredictable, as is their arrival date.
By having an exclusive booking system;
It means that I can give your more of my time
and a variety of dates & times.
All you need to do, is reserve your session
by paying a reservation fee -
then get in touch once baby arrives
to secure your official session date and time.
I recommend to book your newborn session
to take place within the first 8 weeks of babies arrival.

Maternity Session?
Fancy a
Yep. Really!
I truly believe that pregnancies need to be celebrated and documented MORE.
It’s where your journey begins - whether it’s your first pregnancy or your fifth - each journey is unique, different, and why shouldn’t we document this time where your tiny little miracle is growing inside your tummy.
I am that passionate about not letting these moments slip, that I want to give you this session for FREE!*
I know how it feels - the sickness, feeling uncomfortable and tiredness. This is probably the last thing on your mind which is why I think a lot of the time these moments go missed. But I promise, you won’t regret it.
Come and spend an hour with me, we can laugh and chat - and I will snap away whilst we do just that.
Children & Partners welcome - even the grumpy ones!
*Maternity session ‘Collection 3’ becomes FREE when you book your baby in for Newborn ‘Collection 1’. Collection 3 will be payable on the day of your maternity session, and later deducted from the final fee of your Newborn session.
