This guy is featured on here both because he is cute (and he sure is) but also to show the level of confidence with tummy time that I recommend waiting for when you book your first Joey Club photo shoot.

As a guide, I say that the first of your baby photography club sessions should be at around four months but really it is the development stages that we are watching for when it comes to booking in your session.

For session one, I strongly recommend waiting until your little one really has the hang of tummy time, can lift their head right up just like this guy and also it isn’t too much hard work for them to do it so we can get a few smiles in the mix.

Of course, not all babies love tummy time at any stage and it’s not essential for your photo shoot but if you can wait until they’ve got the hang of it, then you really do get a lot more variety in your finished images, including the chance to use some of my props as well as the giant beanbag.
