Top 5 Tips for a Smooth Newborn Session

Oct 19.



Let me help ease some of your session nerves!


It can be a little nerve wracking having a photographer in your space, especially when you are still trying to adjust to your new life! As your photographer, we will work around you, make sure you are relaxed and comfortable, and most of all... enjoying this quality time!



Tip 1 - WARM IT UP

Newborns love the warmth! Get the house all cozy in preparation for our session. Your bub is more likely to be settled and will help keen them all sleepy!



Tip 2 - SET THE VIBE

Do you want those beautiful soft, earthy tones in your photographs? That's all achieved in editing afterwards right? Nope!

The colours in your images is all in what you wear and your space. Dress in neutrals and stay away from bright colours and patterns. Speak with your photographer for their recommendation.

Tip 3 - LETS OPEN UP

Let those love hormones flow.

I know it can sometimes be difficult to have a photographer in your space to truly be yourself. Place trust in us and we will capture your authentic and raw love.



Tip 4 - GO WITH THE FLOW

Newborn sessions are a lot of stop and start. Just like you are figuring out things, so are they! They may need to be fed, settled or changed. Prioritise your bub first and the photographer will work around you and your family. We can wait!. Just relax and roll with it!

Tip 5 - SNUGGLE UP

We want you cozy for your session. Newborn poses involve lots of snuggling and sitting. Choosing clothes like dresses with flow and movement will help make these cuddles comfortable and enjoyable.



I hope to work with you and your family sometime soon!
