Can I combine a Maternity Photography Session?

Yes! Combining a maternity photography session with your newborn session is a very popular option to tell the story of the new life that you are bringing into the world.

I missed booking and my baby is older than 2 weeks!

Don’t worry, your baby can still be photographed after this initial newborn time period.

They are only small for such a short amount of time that any chance to create memories of your baby is precious.

Depending on how many weeks they were born at and their general temperament, your baby may still be able to do sleepy, curly poses.

Or we can do an older baby session for you. To see what these look like view our in studio baby photography.

It is always a good time for baby photography!

How old should my baby be for our session?

Newborn Photography sessions are best taken in your baby’s first 6 – 12 days, when they’re still sleepy and happy to curl up. It is an amazing time to capture the miracle of your new child.

When to book your newborn photography session.

The initial time with your newborn passes so very quickly, so it’s important to get in early! Please contact us as soon as possible, preferably while you’re pregnant to book in an estimated due date.

What do I bring to my newborn session?

We provide everything for bub (ie props, outfits, wraps and backdrops).

The only thing you need to bring to your session is something for you, your partner and any older siblings to wear for your family photos.

What if I need a longer hospital stay?

Should your baby require a longer hospital stay than normal, we just get you to keep in touch, and aim to photograph your session the week that baby comes home.

How many weeks your baby is born at and the length of their hospital stay determines whether we do curly newborn poses or a more wrapped and awake older baby session

They grow up so fast!

Babies grow at an alarming rate. That’s why capturing how tiny, beautiful and precious your newborn is just after birth is so important.

Everything from tiny fingers and toes, cute eyelashes and pouty little lips can be held onto to keep forever with newborn photography.
