Newborn photography foundation course

  Hello my lovely

Now you are ready to start and grow your newborn photography business, this self study programme is going to help you every step of the way.

Many women want to become newborn photographers because they want a better work/life balance for themselves and their family.

If you have a young family this is the perfect job to bring you in good money and still give you that time with your family.

I know you have been dreaming about this for a while and perhaps the not knowing where to start has been stopping you, but now you are ready, this self study programme will take away the overwhelm and show you step by step in simple terms, how to become a newborn photographer and pose babies safely.

I have over 15 years experience, and I am going to show you how to build your business with alternative’s to some of the expense of starting out and help you through every step in a no faff and real way?

 Work through the modules at your own pace and follow the steps to start building your portfolio.

On completion of the course, you will have the basic skills required, confidence and knowledge that you need to get you safely started in the industry, as well as your own portfolio of gorgeous newborn images.

This course will help you take that step from dreaming about it, to doing it.

I have helped turn the most nervous, unconfident, lacking in self belief brand new photographers, mums and career women, into confident, knowledgeable newborn photographers, that are actually doing it, running their dream business. 

This is the very start to building your dream.

So who is this for?

Absolute beginners to not just newborn photography, but photography.

This is perfect for mums wanting to start out because thats exactly how I started so we will work around family, baby, work, furbaby 🙂 commitments, so you dont have to worry about that.

You can work around your baby to do the course when best suits you.

It is for women who are already working in a full time or part time job and want to either get out of it completely or reduce their hours to have more time to enjoy life and family.

 You do not need any experience to join, just a passion, dedication and a drive to make this happen.  Don’t let fear and time hold you back if its your dream, I will help you make it a reality.

 Would you recommend this course to others?

100 % yes. I love Deanas teaching style, its simple and easily understood so you can implement it yourself. I love that I can do this course in my own time and the add ons are a great option for those wanting more.

I opted for several of the add ons as I really wanted to get the most from this course and Deanas expertise.

What I love the most is this course gives you that option to keep it completely self study or a mix of both.

I can’t imagine anyone else running a course quite like yours, it is most definitely authentic and unique 🙂

I really didn’t know where to start, as a complete beginner, I didn’t even have a professional camera. I opted to go for the add on 1:1 and Deanna helped me choose a great second hand camera which saved me a ton of money enabling me to get other bits I needed to start on this journey. 

 Deanna assisted me with all the equipment needs and her advice has really saved me lots of money through her own learnt experiences. Whilst on this course I have learnt: safe newborn poses, how to get the most from the poses and how to edit.

 FAQ’S

Absolutely, I will be helping you prepare for your model calls

This is aimed at total beginners to newborn photography. If you have only just got a camera, don’t worry I will be showing you what settings you will need and how to use your camera as well, so even if you are new to your camera, I will be helping you with that also.

The content will be available for you to look back on for the next 6 months.

  The beauty of this course is that you have the option to add on a 1:1 at the checkout, if however you feel you need more or would like additional, advanced training just pop me an email to info@deanalouise.com

I will be letting you know exactly what you will need and giving you the links to purchase them. We start off with the basics so you can build on this as you grow.

If you want to offer your clients peace of mind that you understand newborn safety and would like a certificate to show future clients, you can add this accreditation option at the checkout. You will be sent over instructions and a workbook to complete on newborn safety as well as submit evidence of safe practices. For example photos of set ups, how you achived the image and you will be required to submit images of certain safe poses, that will all be in the instructions. Dont worry you are not expected to do this until you have completed the course and have had plenty of practice. You will not be expected to show poses such as froggy or taco.

So as long as you have watched the safety module and the posing module you can pretty much be ready to follow what I have shown you straight away.  If you already know how to use your camera this is an advantage,

  This course is purely the photography side, if you want to learn the basics you will need in business to get you off to a great head start you can join my self study beginners business course here

 Meet your mentor

I am a nature loving creative, who takes on animals that need a new home.

My family of animals includes, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens and alpacas. I have over 70 in total , all living their best life.

I have been photographing newborns for 14 years, during that time I gained an associate in Newborn Photography, won over 40 awards, have been a mentor, judge and helped produce the new newborn safety certification.

I now enjoy passing on my knowledge to others in a no faff, authentic way.

Previous students have said they love my simple approach to teaching so that everything is easy to follow and then implement into their own business, they love that im an open book.

I’ve had several 1:1 training sessions now with Deana over the years. Each time I’ve come away inspired to learn, ready to improve and practice my craft. Deana’s unique and patient teaching method means she explains and demonstrates everything so clearly. She ensures you totally understand a topic before moving ahead to the next. No question is too simple and Deana repeatedly answers every one without judgement. My work has definitely improved under Deana’s mentorship. I’m now confidently charging customers my worth and enjoy continued refresher course with Deana. She is a talented, friendly and gifted teacher. Thank you Deana.

Brilliant trainer and photographer! Absolutely lovely lady , very patient and understanding. She knows A LOT about photography and twice as much about babies ! Couldn’t recommend her enough x

Andriana

I am finding this course really useful and I am really enjoying it and at the end of it I will come out of it with my business and be able to build my dream.

Thank you for helping me, make my dream possible.

Lily

On the 6th of October I did a two day 1:1 training session in Deana’s studio. I was a complete beginner and was very worried that I wouldn’t understand any of it. I had never photographed a newborn before and had only just picked up a camera. Deana’s training session was everything I needed and more ! Deana gave me the confidence to not only photograph my first ever newborn during the training but to then go on and start my own photography business. Deana was a fabulous teacher, very calm, supportive, easy going and if I was ever unsure of anything she would always find another way to explain. Deana went up and beyond to help me find the confidence to make my dreams become a reality. Before this training, I felt every overwhelmed and lost, I now know what I need to do and I how to do it. I would highly recommend Deana to anyone who’s thinking of becoming a photographer or needs that little confidence boost
Megan

Highly recommending Deana Louise Hewitt! I’m currently doing her mentoring programme and it’s amazing. Amount of knowledge that Deana is sharing is incredible – you won’t get that during a 1 day workshop❤️❤️❤️

Kath

What I love are Deana’s mentoring programmes because she is there to support and help you over the next few months, so it actually helps you action what you are being taught rather then a pre recorded class that you watch and dont action.

Doing this has really given me the kick up the bum I needed to get things done and start building my business.
