6 Tips for stress free newborn session | Vancouver Newborn Photographer

Are you thinking about booking a newborn session? I am a lifestyle newborn photographer and here to answer some common questions about newborn session.

When to book a newborn session?

It can be booked when the baby is a few days old, or even a few months old. My only request is that your family is feeling comfortable enough for a photo session! Labour recovery can take days to weeks, so we don’t want to rush the photos until moms are feeling better.

Where to take the newborn photos?

Most of my newborn sessions take place in your home, with some families opting for outdoor sessions. Your home is where most memories are made, so it is the perfect space to have your first family photos.

What about props?

I don’t use props, wraps, or baskets. I believe babies are perfect and don’t need to be photographed with distracting objects. The best place for a baby is in the arms of mom and dad.

How long does a newborn session last?

A session typically lasts 60 minutes, we can take breaks in between to feed or change diapers!

What if the baby is awake?

If the baby is awake, awesome! If the baby is sleeping, awesome! We are simply capturing your time together as a family, and it doesn’t matter is the baby is awake or asleep.

My home is a mess!

Don’t worry about a messy home. The first few weeks of parenthood is tough, so just relax! I will move objects or furniture around to ensure we have enough space for photos.

Newborn session doesn’t need to be stressful. Our sessions will be laid back, if the baby cries, we take time to comfort or feed. As life unfolds, I will capture all these little details and moments. Don’t worry about posing or maintaining a spotless home, my goal is to document this special time in your life.
