Firstly, a huge CONGRATULATIONS is due! This is such an exciting time! It can also be a very nerve-wracking period as well as you prepare for the arrival of your baby. I’d like to help you prepare a little bit in terms of scheduling your newborn photography session.
When should you schedule your newborn session?
The earlier the better! I schedule only a handful of newborn clients every month. In order to help you have the greatest chance of getting a spot, schedule a call with me the first few months of your pregnancy. Of course when you book your newborn photography session, the specific date is not set in stone until after the baby arrives.
Does the newborn session have to take place within the first 2 weeks after the baby has arrived?
Absolutely not! I have scheduled newborn photography sessions anywhere from 4 days to 6 weeks after the arrival. Typically, the younger the baby is, the more sleepy he is, but this is not always the case. I recommend that mom stays in touch with me after the baby has arrived and we will schedule based around when mom is feeling up for photos.
Where will the session take place?
Most of the time, the newborn photography session takes place in the client’s home. This highly convenient options allows mom to be comfortable and at ease. However, I am now offering a simple studio set up in my home studio. We can discuss both options when booking your newborn photography session.
Any other questions about my newborn photography session? Please reach out and we can chat!
In the mean time, I encourage you to take a look around here and here to get a feel for my work.
