When is the best time to schedule a newborn photography session?

It’s best to schedule your newborn photography session during the first 7-20 days after your baby’s birth. During this time, newborns are more likely to sleep deeply and curl up naturally, allowing for those adorable and peaceful poses. However, photographers can still capture beautiful images beyond this timeframe.

How long does a newborn photography session usually last?

Newborn sessions typically last between 2-4 hours. This allows for feeding, soothing, and capturing a variety of poses and setups. It’s important to allocate enough time to ensure a relaxed atmosphere and to accommodate the needs of the baby.

Where does the newborn photography session take place?

The session can take place ideally in our professional studio in Golders Green, or in the comfort of your own home. A studio provides a controlled environment with specialized props and equipment, while a home session offers a more intimate setting. The choice depends on your preference.

What should I expect during a newborn photography session?

During the session, the photographer will handle your baby with utmost care and ensure their safety at all times. They will create beautiful setups, use props and accessories, and guide you and your baby into poses that showcase the newborn’s innocence and beauty. The session may include family and sibling shots if desired.

How do I prepare my baby for a newborn photography session?

To prepare your baby for a successful session, it’s recommended to keep them awake for an hour or two before the session to ensure they’re sleepy during the shoot. Feed your baby just before the session to keep them content and comfortable. The night before the session it is recommended that you hidrate your baby’s skin using a baby oil.

Can family members be included in the newborn session?
