Newborn Photography in Dublin
Gentle, baby-led portraits of your baby’s first months and every stage after
Fixed prices from €795, with a framed print included. €200 deposit to book. Serving families across Dublin and South Dublin suburbs.
At our Dublin-based family photography studio, we go beyond the traditional portrait, creating timeless, award-winning images that reflect the heart and soul of your baby. We believe that photos should tell a story. a beautiful narrative of connection, love, and cherished moments.
There’s no rushing and no forced poses. We feed when your baby needs feeding and settle when they need settling. You get to sit back, breathe and enjoy them while I watch for the small moments: the tiny hand on your collarbone, the yawn and the look between you.
Our studio opens for a few weeks each year, so I do things a little differently. Book with your due date and a €200 deposit, and I’ll hold your place in the first open week that starts at least 10 days after your due date. If your baby arrives too late for it, we’ll move you to the next open week. The same sessions are open to older babies and children too, from sitters and cake smashes to proper big-kid portraits.
Newborn Moments
Here’s a glimpse of what newborn sessions in our Dún Laoghaire studio look like; calm, natural, and timeless.
A Studio Made for Families
Our studio in Dún Laoghaire is designed to feel like home. Soft light, quiet spaces, and plenty of time mean your baby sets the pace.
Prices are fixed, so you’ll know the full cost before you book: Essentials €795 (5 digital images and a framed 12×16), Signature €1,095 (15 images and two framed 12×16s) or Heirloom €1,695 (30 images and three canvases or three framed 16×20 prints). There’s no viewing appointment and no sales pitch afterwards. You book with a €200 deposit and pay the balance 14 days before your session.
Within four weeks your private online gallery arrives, and you choose your favourites at home, in your own time.
Families visit us from Dalkey, Monkstown, Blackrock, and all across South Dublin.
Many parents love to include their pets in newborn sessions — and we also offer stand-alone Pet Photography in Dublin if you’d like portraits that focus entirely on them.
Before your session, take a few minutes to read our pre-shoot guide — it covers everything from what to bring to what to expect on the day. Read: Pre-Shoot Info for Newborn Sessions →
Keepsakes to Treasure
Every bundle includes framed prints or canvases, so your baby’s first photographs live on your walls and not just on a phone.
Fall in love with more than your bundle includes? Extra images are €30 each, and you can upgrade your bundle from your gallery for the difference. Fixed prices, and nobody will pitch them to you.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What Parents Say
-
“Walking into the studio with our two-week-old, we were nervous about how she’d settle. Everything felt unhurried and baby-led. The photographs are beyond what we imagined. They’ve captured her exactly as she was in those first days.
Emma & Ciarán — Dalkey
-
“We wanted something timeless, not the usual staged newborn pictures. Kheffache Studios gave us that and more. The soft light, the way they worked around our baby’s rhythm, the care they took with every detail — it felt exclusive, personal, and very special.”
Mark & Lisa — Monkstown
FAQs
What age is best for baby photos?
Any age. Book with your due date and a €200 deposit. I’ll hold your place in the first open week that starts at least 10 days after your due date, and if your baby arrives too late for it, we’ll move you to the next open week. Sitters (around 6 to 9 months) and first birthdays are lovely too.
What should my baby wear?
Simple is best. A plain vest, soft romper, or just a nappy works beautifully. We’ll guide you on what photographs well and keeps the focus on your baby.
How much does it cost?
Bundles are €795, €1,095 or €1,695. You book with a €200 deposit and pay the balance 14 days before your session. Each includes digital images and framed prints or canvases, and that’s the full price.
What if my baby doesn’t settle or cries?
That’s completely normal. Our baby-led approach means we work at your baby’s pace, taking breaks when needed and capturing natural moments as they unfold.
Can parents and siblings be included?
Yes, for sure, we encourage it. Including parents and older brothers or sisters makes your gallery even more meaningful.
Do you provide props or keep it natural?
We keep things timeless and simple. If you have a special blanket, toy or keepsake you’d like included, bring it along — otherwise we focus on connection and emotion.
