Hi! First of all thank you for visiting Mini Bee Photography.
My name is Sam and I’m the owner and photographer of Mini Bee. I’ve been photographing children for many many years, so many that when I started I began on film and processing in the dark room – there was no room for error back then! Over the years I’ve photographed many aspects of photography, from door knobs to skydiving but now specialise as a newborn photographer in County Durham and Newcastle Upon Tyne. I really fell in love and felt like I found my goal in life when I started photographing children and specifically newborn in 2016. This could be because I have 2 children of my own, who knows. All I know is that I really feel like I’ve found my calling in life. It feels so amazing to do a job that you love and care about (and I’ve been told that this shows in the photographs which obviously makes me happy to hear).

My home life is always hectic with things going on. I have two kids, a husband (so make that three kids) and a dog (the most loving Bernese Mountain Dog) so I’m fully trained in first aid but thankfully never needed it. We love doing the usual things like holidays, walks, playing games, etc My passions are formula one and sunshine. Give me these two things along with a rhubarb gin and I’m a happy gal. Throw in a hot tub or a pool and I’m living my best life.

I hope you enjoy visiting this site, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any questions at all.

The
Studio

The studio is based in Burnopfield (NE16 6LX to be exact). As the leading newborn photographer in County Durham, we have a dedicated newborn and family studio where you can wind down, relax, have some tea/coffee, biscuits and just enjoy the session. It really is a wonderful experience – Don’t take our word, please check out our facebook reviews if you want to see what people thought.

Before your session you will have a pre shoot call to go through what to expect, what to bring, style, colour, etc. This is to tailor your session as much as we can. We photograph for purpose so if you know you favour black and white, we will shoot for this. If you want multiple wall art display, we will shoot for this, if you want neutral colours or bold colours, we will shoot for this too. We want to know what you want and so the sessions are completely tailored.

All sessions are different depending on the type. Newborn sessions are very calm and peaceful, toddler sessions are energetic and fun but, we do make sure all of our sessions are enjoyable. We want you to leave wanting to book in your next session with us.

Gift vouchers are available to purchase for any amount which are valid for 12 months
