A newborn photo shoot is a totally different shoot from the regular family photo session. Whereas you can relax, play and have fun with your family in any setting, the newborn needs a lot more attention and care. Therefore I always plan more time when photographing newborns, so we can relax, feed when necessary and allow the baby to settle at his or her own pace.

For a newborn photo session I will come to your house, especially when the baby is only a few days old it is best for mom & baby to be in their own environment. I will bring some blankets and backdrops, and if you have anything that you’d like to be included in the session, please make sure you have it all ready.

We will use the room in your house that has the most natural light. This is most pleasing for photos, but also best for baby (imagine being not even 2 weeks old and having flash after flash in your eyes!) Make sure that there is some space near the window where we can set up a little area for baby to be comfortable.

Crank up the heat in your house, or use a little space heater (or even a hairdryer) to heat up the air. When adults are sweating, the baby is usually most comfortable! Something else that helps the baby to be relaxed is ‘white noise’. There are some good white noise internet websites or even iPhone apps! An added bonus of the hairdryer is that is already produces some form of white noise:-)

Try to feed the baby about 30 mins prior to my arrival. He/she will be sleepy by the time we are getting ready to shoot and this will make it easier for everybody. Don’t be worried when the baby is fussy though. We’ll take some time to relax and feed if needed so that she/he can settle.

Babies safety goes first, always! If you are not comfortable with a certain pose, let me know. You are always around to hold & support the baby and calm him or her when needed. If the baby gets fussy, we take a break, no problem. You can’t expect your 10 day old to be a natural model:-)

Let me know beforehand if you’d like certain specific photos, I can prepare those and make sure I have all the right equipment and possible backdrops
