What to Expect/do before your Newborn Shoot

• Feed baby 20 minutes prior to the session. Have them ready in their first outfit with a bib overtop incase they spit up.

• Newborns shoots take anywhere from 1-2+ hours so be ready with extra bottles/breastmilk

• Babies often take 2-3 breaks throughout the shoot to resettle them.

• Bring extra diapers, wipes, diaper cream, etc for these breaks should you need it.

• If you’re including siblings make sure to plan the shoot around nap time if they’re siblings are young so they are not cranky.

• If you’re including a pet have a preferred toy or treat available to get their attention.

• Newborn posing props and wraps are supplied if wanted.

• If you are bringing some outfits for the photos select well-fitting outfits that don’t appear loose or need to be rolled up, solid & more neutral colors tend to photograph better in all prop set-ups.

• Even if you’re not getting in the newborns photos come with clean, well-trimmed hands, free of accessories incase we do shots with the parents hands
