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.
Newborn Photography
A newborn photo shoot is best when your baby is between 5 and 10 days old as this is when they are at their maximum sleepiness and poseability to capture those dreamy shots. For this reason, I definitely recommend that you book when you are pregnant as this is one less thing to worry about scheduling when you’ve just got home from the hospital. We make an appointment for your due date plus 7 days and then adjust it as needed.
My newborn shoots include your three favourite digital images which you select from your online gallery a few weeks after your photo shoot – I don’t make you attend a sales or viewing session. Sessions take place in my warm and cosy studio in Crawley Down and cost £95.
