Blue Bean Newborn Baby Photography

Hello and welcome! I'm Victoria, the proud owner and photographer behind the award-winning Blue Bean Photography. Based in the picturesque village of Blackfordby, near Ashby de la Zouch, I have specialised in maternity, newborn, and baby milestone photography for over 13 years. My passion is creating treasured memories for families through beautiful, timeless portraits that will proudly adorn your home for years to come.

About Me and My Journey

Before embarking on my newborn photography journey, I spent over a decade in e-commerce, digital design, and web implementation for several leading high street retailers. As my own family grew, I felt the desire to stay creative and move my career into a more meaningful direction. This led me to discover my true calling in newborn photography during my second pregnancy in 2010. I could never have imagined the incredible journey that lay ahead for me and the Blue Bean Photography Studio.

Today, I am proud to create timeless newborn baby portraiture, as well as maternity and milestone magic. I feel privileged to have met and worked with so many amazing families over the years. Your child's life is just beginning, and I would be honoured to capture it for you.
