Ahhhhhh! That's what we said, of course, when Claire Wilson's photographs blinked on to our screens. She has had the very smart notion of specialising in taking pictures of babies, starting as soon after birth as possible, and collating them in the most beautiful books. You can make a booking with her based on your due date, and she will come to your home to take the first photographs in the baby's first few days. She doesn't use lights and will take as many breaks as are required over an hour or two, so there are no jolts or shocks for anyone.

She'll also come back to mark the baby's first six months and year if you so wish. Basic sessions start at €150. Contact her at 087-9111207 and see her portfolio on www.newborn.ie
