NEWBORN SESSION PREPARATION GUIDE

This guide will help prepare you and your baby for your upcoming Newborn Session.

Following this guide will help ensure your session runs as smoothly as possible.

​

  • Newborn sessions are best photographed when Baby is 4-14 days old.
    After this time-frame, Baby is easily awakened and more difficult to pose.

  • Please notify us if you plan to circumcise baby- session will be booked with healing time in mind.

  • Sessions may take up to 2-3 hours long.

  • Props, headband, bonnets and wraps are supplied. If you have a sentimental item, bring along if you wish.

  • If baby is breastfed, avoid caffeinated and carbonated drinks as well as gassy and spicy foods 24 hours prior to session.

  • Keep baby awake minimum 2 hours prior to session (a bath works well).

  • ***Give baby large feed before arriving at our studio or plan to feed once you arrive. Be prepared to feed baby throughout session or have prepared bottles (bottles work great for posing and feeding simultaneously). We will not be able to continue the session if baby is hungry and hungry baby will not cooperate.

  • Bring baby to session in a button/zipper-down sleeper and loose diaper.

  • A pacifier is HIGHLY encouraged. Usage will be minimal and therefore nipple confusion will not occur.

  • Room will be very warm, dress in layers for your own comfort.

  • Neutral coloured shirts are encouraged for family photos (highly recommend tanks for females).

  • Do not be late for the session as most of our sessions are scheduled beforehand.

  • Pee (or poo) happens during family photos- bring a change of clothes just in case.

  • Minimum 6 pcs of diaper.s
