Baby Photography EXPERIENCE IN Johannesburg
Capture Timeless Moments with a Professional Baby Photographer
Experience the art of baby photography in Johannesburg with Bridget Corke — where each portrait reveals purity, joy, and connection in its most heartfelt form.
Since 2005, I’ve dedicated my craft to capturing the wonder and innocence of babies through fine-art photography. Each portrait is designed with artistry, patience, and care — ensuring your baby’s personality shines naturally through every image.
Let’s create something extraordinary that your family will treasure for generations.
Discover how to prepare, what to wear, and what to expect from your baby photoshoot experience.
BABY PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE
Pure, Honest, and Timeless
I capture what I call Stolen Moments™ — those fleeting, fragile slices of life that define your baby’s early days. My baby portraits are minimalist, expressive, and filled with emotion, avoiding trends in favour of timeless storytelling.
Every yawn, smile, or curious glance is photographed with intention. Each small detail — the soft curve of a hand or the sparkle of discovery — becomes a lasting work of art.

YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER
When you book your baby photoshoot, you’ll always work with me — never an assistant or substitute.
If I can’t photograph your session, it will be rescheduled.
You’ve chosen my creative vision, and that’s exactly what you’ll receive — a fine-art baby portrait crafted with excellence.

EXPERT POSING & ATTENTION TO DETAIL
Babies move, stretch, and explore — and I embrace every second.
My expertise in posing ensures each image feels natural and flattering, while still capturing the spontaneity that makes your baby unique.
Guided by my seven posing principles — chin, shoulders, hands, shape, body language, asymmetry, and connection— I create images that radiate life and emotion.
CLASSIC LIGHTING STYLE
Lighting defines mood and form. I use studio lighting techniques that sculpt emotion and depth.
- Black Backgrounds: My signature one-light setup adds intimacy and dimension, highlighting the purity of skin and form.
- White Backgrounds: Soft, high-key light creates bright, angelic portraits filled with warmth and simplicity.
Each setup enhances connection — clean, refined, and timeless.
RETOUCHING WITH CARE
My editing philosophy is less is more. I refine with precision but preserve every natural detail — your baby’s skin tone, expressions, and gentle features remain authentic and beautiful.
The result: heartfelt portraits that look polished yet real.
BABY WARDROBE GUIDANCE
Your baby is the star — and simplicity makes them shine.
Wardrobe Principles:
Keep It Natural: Babies photograph beautifully in simple wraps or bare skin.
Signature Style: Black on black or white on white creates refined, timeless depth.
Textures: Soft knits, lace, or cotton add gentle warmth without distraction.
Avoid Loud Prints: Simple tones keep focus on emotion and connection.
Comfort is Key: Happy babies photograph best — choose soft, cosy fabrics.
If you’re joining the portraits, coordinate with subtle, solid tones. Bring options to the studio — I’ll guide you to what photographs best.
PREPARING FOR YOUR BABY PHOTOSHOOT
Hair: Keep yours simple and styled naturally.
Hands & Nails: Trimmed, clean, and neutral tones are ideal.
Make-Up: Natural and minimal enhances your expressions beautifully.
Arrive relaxed and unhurried — everything else is taken care of.
YOUR BABY ARTWORK
Your portraits deserve to be seen, not stored. My studio offers custom frames, designer albums, and portfolio boxes crafted to preserve your baby’s portraits as fine-art heirlooms.
Display them proudly on your walls — reminders of a love that only deepens with time.

THE IMPORTANCE OF PROFESSIONAL BABY PHOTOS
In a world of smartphone snapshots, professional baby portraits stand apart.
They are created with artistry and intention — designed not only to record but to reveal your baby’s true spirit.
A professional portrait freezes time — the tiny hands, curious eyes, and first smiles that disappear too soon. These portraits become part of your legacy, treasured as your child grows, reminding you of how small they once were and how loved they’ve always been.
Creating these images is an act of love — a promise to remember. Because one day, when those fleeting moments are long gone, these portraits will remain — vivid, tangible, and priceless.
