Sessions are held in a studio located on Beatrice Street in Oswestry, and services are offered to families in Oswestry and surrounding areas including Shrewsbury, Chester, Wrexham, and the Wirral.

The business highlights that Janine Speake is newborn safety trained. This is mentioned alongside her 10 years of experience photographing babies and families. The training is part of the relaxed and simple approach she keeps for newborn sessions in her Oswestry studio.

The business website states it has 176+ five-star Google reviews. These reviews are used to demonstrate the quality of the relaxed newborn photography service provided across Shropshire, Wrexham, Chester, and beyond.

The process begins with getting in touch and paying a £99 deposit. Once the deposit is paid, Janine waits to hear when the baby arrives. After the baby is here, the session is arranged, and then the client chooses their photos from an online gallery.

Packages start from £299. The Twinkle Twinkle package includes 5 professionally edited images and use of studio clothing for £299. The Lemon Drizzle package includes 10 professionally edited images and use of studio clothing for £399.

The Little Miss Muffet package, which is the most popular, costs £499. It includes 15 professionally edited images, use of studio clothing, and parents & siblings. An additional maternity session can be added for £129.

Most sessions last around 2 hours. The studio is designed with tired new parents in mind, featuring comfy sofas, plenty of space for feeding and changing, and enough tea to keep you going during the session.

The studio is located at 32 Beatrice Street, Oswestry, Shropshire, SY11 1QG. It is filled with beautiful natural light which is used to create soft, natural images throughout the website.

The business can be contacted via phone at 07557 269 891 or email at [email protected]. The website also provides a contact form for families to get in touch.

Some reviewers say they felt completely at ease handing over their tiny newborn because Janine is incredibly gentle and experienced. Others mention that Janine made them feel so comfortable, even their partner who hates photos, and the whole experience was so calm.

The business makes a wardrobe available for clients to use during their sessions. This allows families to dress up their newborns or themselves for the photoshoot in a relaxed environment.

After the session, Janine carefully edits the gallery and sends everything over to the client online. The client can view their images in their own time and choose their favourites from there without needing to leave the house again.

The business also offers maternity, cake smash, wedding, and Christmas photography. They emphasize themed sessions such as wheat field photoshoots and nursery photography as well.

Janine Speake has over 10 years of experience photographing babies and families. She describes herself as a quirky, arty, family-centric photographer who just loves babies and is a huge Swiftie.
