Open for new mentees Jan 2025 

 Welcome to The Art of you Newborn photography foundation course

 

   Hello my lovely

Now you are ready to start and grow your newborn photography business, this online self study programme with the option to add on 1:1’s is going to help and support you every step of the way.

Many women join this programme 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, I am going to support, guide and encourage you with this course.

I will take away the overwhelm and show you step by step in simple terms, how to become a newborn photographer.

Not only that but you will save a huge amount of time and stress trying to do it all by yourself.

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?

With the added bonus of 1:1 support and the ability to ask questions along the way, so you achieve the outcome that you want.

I know this programme works because I have helped many women now who were absolute beginners set up their business, build their knowledge, understand their camera, learn how to safely pose a newborn, build their portfolio, edit their images and build their confidence.

Each module is broken down to help you learn the foundations of newborn photography to build your knowledge and confidence.

On completion of the programme, you will have the skills, confidence and knowledge that you need, as well as your own portfolio of gorgeous newborn images.

I am going to 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.

This course will help you earn while you learn, with simple steps to get you to where you want to be.

Yes I will be showing you how to earn while you are learning on this course.

With Certificate £555

Meet The lovely Emma and hear what she has to say about her experience on this programme.

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, watch the modules around childcare and work commitments.

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 can ask me questions by using the ask a question button in your online portal.

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.

You will receive your links and logins once you have joined.

 Would you recommend this course to others?

100 % yes. The sheer honesty and real experiences that are being shared, and the fact that you are so truthful about your journey from complete beginner to award winning newborn photographer inspires me and gives me hope that I could achieve a solid regular income from newborn photography. You are not only showing us how to do things, but why we should do them as well as always saying we have choices of how we do things, because its our business. I love that you don’t just say it’s your way or not atall, and I really appreciate how you are there to answer questions and help with insecurities . Having been self taught and never having any real direction from anyone I wondered if I’d struggle to keep up, but you make it such an enjoyable experience and your friendly approach is absolutely brilliant. Anyone who is thinking about starting newborn photography, whether they already know huge amounts about settings lighting and editing or whether they are literally just picking up there first camera will benefit from your experience and guidance 🙂

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

Absolutely, this is how you will build your portfolio.

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.

Having a certificate is a great option to show parents that you have taken some safety training.

If you would like to achieve one you will need to send me over some of your images and complete a newborn safety online test.

 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.
Nicky

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 online workshop and it’s amazing. Amount of knowledge that Deana is sharing is incredible – you won’t get that during in person workshop. I would say that this is more like a mentorship. ❤️❤️❤️
Kate

What I love about this is Deana is there to support and help you if you want it, so it actually helps you action what you are being taught rather then a pre recorded class that you watch and dont have any interaction with the mentor and never end up actioning.

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