Following on from yesterday’s post about posing newborns with their older siblings, this image illustrates how it works if you choose my natural newborn style of photography.
Again, we’ve deployed the swaddle as the secret weapon for a really settled baby – the more settled they are for sibling photos the better as we can then focus on the older child without having to worry about anything else.
The natural newborn bed set is the perfect place to pose siblings together – it’s low stress as there is plenty of space and no danger of knocking over a newborn or even having to provide support for them. They stay tucked up and cosy and we simply get your older child to sit down behind them. Sitting on a bed, even if it’s in a studio, is a really familiar and relaxed environment so we tend to get a more cooperation with the idea of being part of the photos as well.
Want to find out more about the difference between traditional and lifestyle newborn photography?
I offer two main styles of photography when you book for a newborn photo shoot at my studio and there are some differences between the two. You’ll be able to choose between them before you come to visit so check out my comprehensive article and see which one suits you best!
Newborn Photography in East Grinstead
Newborn photo shoots are best when your baby is between 5 and 10 days old—this is when they’re at their sleepiest and curliest, perfect for capturing those beautifully serene images. To ensure you don’t miss out, I recommend booking while you’re still pregnant—we’ll set a provisional date for a week after your due date and adjust if needed once your baby arrives.
Your session takes place in my warm and cosy studio in Crawley Down, designed for your baby’s comfort. The shoot is relaxed, unrushed, and includes three digital images of your choice, all for £95. There’s no sales session—just a private online gallery where you can view and select your favourites at your own pace.
