What to Expect During Your Newborn Photography Session
Welcoming a new baby into the world is one of life’s most precious moments, and capturing those early days with professional photography is a decision you’ll cherish forever. If you’re preparing for your newborn photography session, you might be wondering what to expect. Rest assured, we’re here to guide you through the process and ensure it’s a stress-free and enjoyable experience for you and your baby.
Preparing for the Session
1. Timing is Everything Newborn sessions are typically best when the baby is between 7 to 21 days old. During this time, babies are still very sleepy and can be gently posed into those adorable, curled-up positions.
2. Scheduling Your Appointment It’s best to book your session during your pregnancy to secure a spot within the ideal time frame. Once your baby arrives, we’ll confirm the exact date based on their birth.
3. Feeding and Comfort well-fed baby is a happy baby! Plan to feed your newborn right before the session begins. This helps them feel content and ready to snooze through the photoshoot. Be prepared to feed baby during the shoot as needed.
