I've been obsessed with capturing images since I was a little girl and way before digital cameras camera phones, facebook and instagram. When you ask people what matters most in their lives they won't say their ipads, designer handbags or other material possesions; the likelyhood is that they will say their family, friends and their memories.
A photograph taken 20, 30, 50 years ago has the power to unlock so many emotions and memories and take that viewer back to the very day the photos was taken. For me this is what makes it an extraordinary form of media. Unlike film, which is undoubtably important, we can flick through photo albums, hang photos on our walls and display them around our homes.

Photographing newborns is a privilage that I have had for over 8 years. I call it a privillage because my clients entrust me with photographing one of the most special times in their lives. On a newborn photoshoot I offer a number of different set ups, with newborn outfit changes. Plus I insist on parents and any siblings being involved in the photos, so you can come away with a beautiful gallery of your new baby and your family.
I just love squishy newborns and idea of Newborn photoshoots are to capture a baby where they are still curled up and almost in the same positions as they were in the womb, but with pretty blankets and textures to create a warm and cosy feel. In my studio I have a wide array of props, mini beds, baskets and plenty of tiny outfits to create beautiful and stand-out photos of your most precious treasure.
Pregnancy photoshoots with Sonya Harrap Photography are a lovely way of capturing such a special time in you life. It's the perfect excuse to get yourself glam and pampered and focus on yourself before your little bundle arrives to steel your focus (and your heart). In a pregnancy photoshot with me you can expect a choice of beautiful dresses, drapes and accessories.
Bump, Maternity or Pregnancy photoshoot. Whatever you want to call it, it is actually a photoshoot for YOU and your growing baby bump. Your Maternity photoshoot will be an hour long. During this time you will have access to the many dresses and outfits that I have at the studio and prior to your pregnancy photoshoot we can discuss the looks that you like along with dresses and outfits.
Hands down one of my favourite photoshoots to do. One year olds are such special little things; full of curiosity and lots of wonderful emotions. A cake smash isn't just the fun of smashing and smooshing a cake all over the place; it's an oppertunity to have photos that capture your babys personality.

I visited Sonya for a cake smash photoshoot in July 2021, she was amazing through the shoot and was so good with my little boy. He loved the session especially the bath shoot at the end, the photos she captured were also amazing! I couldn't recommend her enough, i will defiantly book Sonya again.

We visited Sonya Harrap for a photoshoot recently. The studio was well equipped with all sorts of props and outfits and the end result was just what I wanted. Sonya was warm and welcoming and we’ll definitely be using her again and recommending her.

We booked Sonya for our son’s first birthday cake smash and the photos were wonderful. We requested an autumnal theme, and Sonya did an excellent job of sourcing some great props. The shoot itself was very relaxed and our son really enjoyed himself. We would definitely recommend her!
