They arrive, turn your lives upside down and start changing immediatley! Those first few weeks are the most magical and deserved to be captured beautifully. Tiny fingers & toes, sleepy faces that melt your heart and pure innocence of life.
It's a good idea to let us know you're planning a newborn session before baby arrives. The most successful images are created when Babies are between 4-8 days old. at this age they still have the crunched up womb like character and when they're even just a few days older they are more easily disturbed when changing their position for further photographs and the possibility of baby acne or colic can also show up after a week. So capturing the angelic innocence is best before baby is two weeks old.
We capture most babies wearing their birthday suit and it's best to dress them for travelling in something easy to remove, we also suggest you plan to feed them on arrival at the studio, to get the best 'sleepy' portraits. And for mum & dad it's best to wear plain white or black tops. Oh and it's a good idea to bring a change of clothes with you just in case your precious little one decided to tinkle over you!
Newborn sessions are never rushed and they're normally much longer in time than other types of sessions as we go to baby's schedule, we keep a three hour window of studio time open when scheduling innocence sessions to allow for feeds & cuddles as needed.
