It was the tiniest thing I ever decided to put my whole life into.
Hi there! I’m Charlotte, a photographer with a deep passion for capturing life’s most precious early moments. I’ve called Dubai home for 6 years, although I spent the last 4 years photographing weddings in Europe. Now, I’m back in Dubai, and my focus has shifted to something even closer to my heart: newborn photography. There’s something incredibly special about documenting those first days of a baby’s life—the tiny features, the peaceful sleep, and the beginning of a new chapter for your family. Whether you’re welcoming your first child or adding another little one to your family, a newborn photoshoot is a beautiful way to celebrate and cherish these early days.
The newborn stage is one of the most magical and fleeting times in a family’s journey. Those tiny hands and feet, sleepy stretches, and adorable facial expressions change so quickly, but with a newborn photoshoot, you can capture the essence of this brief period forever. These photos will be cherished keepsakes, preserving the beauty and love that surround your newborn’s arrival, no matter how many times you’ve been through this joyful experience.
Dubai, with its beautiful natural light, stylish indoor settings, and serene outdoor locations, provides the perfect backdrop for newborn photography. At Shots by Charlotte, we specialize in creating newborn photography sessions that capture not just the appearance but also the emotion of these precious early moments. We’d love to help you create unforgettable memories of your baby’s first days.
Welcoming a newborn is a time filled with awe, tenderness, and an overwhelming sense of love, making it a perfect moment to preserve through photography. A newborn photoshoot is much more than just capturing cute baby pictures—it’s about documenting the first magical days of your baby’s life, the emotions of new parenthood, and the profound bond within your family. In Dubai, with its soft natural light, elegant indoor spaces, and peaceful outdoor locations, there are endless possibilities for creating beautiful newborn photos that reflect your style and preferences.

A newborn photoshoot is about much more than just taking pictures—it’s about capturing the essence of a precious, fleeting moment. These first days are filled with tiny details and tender moments that change quickly, from the delicate features of your newborn to the peaceful expressions of their deep sleep. Capturing this early stage helps you remember and cherish these moments for years to come.
Moreover, these photos will not only be treasured keepsakes for you and your partner, but they will also hold deep meaning for your child as they grow. Imagine being able to show your little one these beautiful images, letting them see just how cherished they were right from the very start. That’s why many parents choose to include their partners or older children in the shoot, creating a family portrait that celebrates the love and connection surrounding the newest addition.

Timing is key when it comes to planning a newborn photoshoot, as it helps to capture your baby’s early features and moments in the most natural and beautiful way. The ideal time for a newborn shoot is usually within the first two weeks of birth, preferably between days 5 and 14. At this stage, babies are generally sleepier and easier to pose, allowing us to capture those adorable curled-up poses and peaceful expressions.
Of course, every baby is different, so we always recommend a brief consultation to discuss the timing that works best for you and your newborn. We understand that flexibility is important for new parents, and we’re happy to accommodate the schedule that suits your family best. We can plan sessions at your home or in a comfortable indoor studio to ensure a relaxed atmosphere for both parents and baby.

Fun Fact about Charlotte
My very first maternity photoshoot took place in the stunning desert of Dubai, with golden sand dunes as the backdrop! I was still relatively new to the profession and wasn’t entirely sure what to expect, but what an experience it was. Surrounded by the breathtaking landscape and the soft light of the setting sun, I found my passion and knew that this was what I wanted to do. That day, amidst the calm and beauty of nature, shaped me into the photographer I am today.
About Us: Newborn Videographer Collin
What started as a way to spend more time with Charlotte turned into a deep passion for capturing life’s moments on video. Each photoshoot is an opportunity for me as a videographer to tell a unique story—a story that can be both seen and felt. My style is dynamic and emotional, always seeking out those unexpected moments that make a session so special. It’s incredibly rewarding to capture the love, joy, and connection of this extraordinary time in a film that you’ll treasure forever.
Fun Fact about Collin
If you see me during a shoot surrounded by giggling children, it’s probably because Charlotte is taking funny pictures of me explaining how the drone works or answering their questions about the camera. The kids find it absolutely fascinating, and the photos are hilarious to look back on! It’s become a bit of a tradition to catch these spontaneous moments, and they always bring a smile to our faces.
