Expecting a new bundle of joy in the coming months?
There really is nothing more precious than your Newborn Baby’s first moments.
All those gorgeous baby details – the delicate eyelashes, rosey cheeks, tiny lips.
Those devine squishy rolls only newborns have. And nothing melts your heart more than how they curl up in your arms and fall into a dreamy slumber.
And OH … that glorious BABY SMELL.
Those first moments, hours and days truly are a gift – but oh so brief! They grow up so fast.
One minute they’re taking their first steps, the next they’re walking into their first day of primary school. My son just started primary school … where did the last 5 years go!?!
Let’s not miss a single moment and have our Newborn Photographer capture all those first cuddles and kisses, those tiny newborn details and the glorious bond only you and your newborn have.
When is the best time for Newborn Photography?
The best time for Newborn Photography with in the first few weeks, ideally the first 7 to 10 days. This is when they are still really sleepy and have that gorgeous newborn “look”. They are also still curly and squishy at this age and love being wrapped and posed.
As they get older, they become more awake and have more control over their arms, making it a little harder for certain newborn poses. However, newborn are gorgeous at any age and we will capture the most stunning photographs whether they are 1 week old or 6 weeks old.
Newborn Photography Safety & Experience
We have more than 10 years in Newborn Photography and our Newborn Photographer has had extensive training in posing and safe handling of your precious newborn.
From the moment we start handling your baby, we are watching your baby and making sure they are comfortable and safe.
No two Newborn Photography sessions are the same. We will be guided your baby and how they are settled on the day.
Our Newborn Photographer is fully vaccinated and we also ensure the studio is cleaned and all props sanitised before your Newborn Photography session. We have a heat pump and heater in our studios to keep your newborn warm and snugly.
You newborn baby is in safe and experienced hands with us.
Are siblings and parents welcome at the Newborn Photography session?
Absolutely. In fact we actually encourage it! There is nothing more gorgeous than have the entire family, siblings, grandparents and even PETS involved in your Newborn Photography session.
Some of our favourite newborn photos are those with siblings and pets. Generally we will try to do these photos at the beginning of the session so siblings can relax while we take the time after to photograph your newborn.
