When it comes to a newborn session, obviously I spend most of it creating images that include all of your baby! However, there’s always time to focus in on some of those adorable details.
For example, those tiny feet and shell like fingernails, velvety ears and soft fluffy duck hairs. When it comes to getting involved in the photos as a new parent, this can be a great time. Obviously we will carve out time in your photo shoot to make some more traditional family images but not every new mum and dad feels particularly camera ready. Just adding your hands to the image can be a great way to capture your early days connection without you having to worry about getting ready for a photo shoot when you already have a lot on your mind.
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.
