WHAT DOES A NEWBORN PHOTOSHOOT ENTAIL?
I like to keep my newborn photoshoots all about your baby, so my style is very natural and connection focused. I have a wide range of textured blankets, throws, wraps and outfits available to use in sessions but encourage you to bring along any sentimental or cultural items you may wish to include.
As your little one's comfort and safety is paramount, my sessions are baby-led and full newborn photoshoots typically last 2.5 - 3.5 hours which allows plenty of time for a range of different set-ups as well as feeding, cuddling and comforting.
WHO DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH?
In addition to photos of just your newborn baby, I always capture a range of photos of new brothers and sisters together. I'm a firm believer that it is also extremely important YOU exist in the photos for your children to have when they're older, so I encourage parents to be in some of the photos also.
Becoming a mother, father, big brother/sister are all important milestones I photograph the whole family during my newborn photoshoots.
Pets are also welcome to come to both Bump and Bubs + Us photoshoots.
WHEN SHOULD I BOOK MY NEWBORN PHOTOSHOOT?
It is never too early to book your newborn photoshoot, and I strongly recommend you book during your pregnancy to secure a booking.
When it comes to getting posed newborn photos taken the newer the baby, the better. The optimum timing to get the results seen on my website is within the first 5 - 14 days.
BUT WE DON'T KNOW THE ACTUAL DATE OUR BABY WILL ARRIVE...
Since babies due dates are just a guide - I book a tentative time frame based on your due date then once your bubs arrives simply let me know and we'll lock in a session time.
I'VE ALREADY WELCOMED MY BABY TO THE WORLD, AM I TOO LATE?
If you've left it until after you've had your baby to think about getting newborn photos don't panic you're not too late. I photograph babies of all ages and we'll still be able to capture some beautiful photos of your little one and your newly expanded family.
I suggest contacting me as soon as possible, and I'll do my best to accommodate a newborn photoshoot as soon as my schedule allows.
WHERE DO YOU DO YOUR NEWBORN PHOTOSHOOTS?
My newborn photography sessions are held in my studio in Fitzroy North just north of Melbourne CBD.
