1. Try to keep your baby awake before the photography session

For newborn sessions, we like to put babies in the cute little poses where they are curled up or placed in buckets, baskets or bowls. When babies are sound asleep, we are able to get these poses much easier because they are nice and relaxed! A couple tips we suggest to keep babies awake is to give them a nice long bath a hour before the session.

2. Feed your baby right before the session

Besides a sleepy baby, a happily content baby with a full tummy will allow for a successful photography session. We tell our parents to feed their baby full right before they come to the session.

3. Style or vision for the newborn session

Discuss with me the style of shoot you are looking for, to be sure that I’m able to do what you desire. Totally optional, send me pictures with ideas for your shoot. In one newborn shoot we can do 2-3 setups. So it’s better to prepare all before.

4. Clothes

Wear soft colors, and avoid patterns as we do not want them to be distracting in the picture. Our favorite colors are white, grey, black and creams. My suggestion is to pick one or two colors and then coordinate different tones of the colors together.

5. RELAX

You should be relaxed and not panic if child is crying. Because we never know how will be newborn.
Let the photographer do. If child will be nervous. We will try to calm him down and try to do all the best for memorize this amazing moment.
