About Newborn Portrait Session
To welcome your newest little family member to the world, Sessions are best done of babies in their first 14 days to capture all the precious memories, all the little things in their tiny little live,they grow so fast and these moments will pass by very quickly.
Family members are welcome to be included.
What to expect on the day
On the day please expect some fun, and a bit of waiting while bub settles.
I advise all newborn parents to feed bubs 30 mins before arriving to the session and to try and keep them awake prior to the session so they will sleep more heavily during the session.
Please also be aware that the baby will be constantly interrupted so may not sleep all that well, these interruptions may be solved by giving your child extra feeds. This will not be a permanent interruption to their normal feeding and sleeping patterns. And bubs will sleep well after the session.
At all times stay calm as bubs can sense any apprehension or unease. Crying is normal and I am used to it.
If you use a pacifier or any other methods of soothing your child please bring them with you.
What to bring to a Newborn Portrait Session
Bring along any personal items you’d like included in the photos, ie. Blankies, booties, special presents from nana. etc.
However I do have lots of props so don’t bring too much. As we don’t want to overdo the moving, changing etc.
I suggest you have bub in the outfit you’d like them in for the initial photos when you arrive to avoid disturbing bubs too much. Overalls tend to bunch under babies chins and don’t look as great.
During some of the shoot your baby may be naked please bring extra clothing for yourself and baby in case of accidents.
