Every chapter, beautifully remembered.
The waiting months, the sleepy early weeks, a first birthday and the whole family together. Each one is a session you can book today.
Sessions take place in your home, or in our private studio in Ongar, Essex, opening December 2026.
The waiting months
Elegant, natural maternity portraits between 30 and 36 weeks, with our gowns or your own wardrobe.
The first weeks
Sleepy, curled-up and brand new. A gentle, baby-led newborn session, best between 5 and 14 days old.
One whole year
A bespoke cake, a styled set and all the giggles. Cake smash sessions in our Ongar studio.
All together
Relaxed family portraits that feel like you. Up to six people, cuddles and chaos welcome.
Your gallery, the next working day.
Most studios take weeks. We deliver your fully edited gallery the next working day, included in every collection at no extra cost. Download, print and share while the moment is still fresh.
How it works
Hello, I'm Isabella.
I started First Chapter Studio with a simple idea: beautiful family photography should feel calm, personal and within reach. My sessions are unhurried and led by you and your little ones, so there's never any pressure to get things perfect.

We've just opened our doors, and our launch prices are our way of saying thank you to the families who join us at the very beginning.
