Preparing for your newborn photoshoot

PLANNING

• Make sure your little one has been fed just before we make a start.

• If you are wanting to make use of my client wardrobe outfits, please dress your baby in easily removable outfits (zippy ideally)

• Please use nude nail polish, French tips or natural nails. Your hands will feature in most images.

• Avoid wearing chunky wrist watches or jewellery as these can detract from you little one in close up photos. Wedding rings and fine jewellery are all fine.

• Keep snacks and water within easy reach!

TIPS:

• Be prepared for 1.5-2 hours for a newborn photoshoot. This is to accommodate feeds and changes.

• A baby with a full tummy will go into a deeper sleep, so I will encourage feeding as much as your little one needs during the session.

• Siblings are absolutely welcome for your photoshoot! Perhaps consider having one parent, or an extra set of hands to entertain older siblings while your new arrival is being photographed.
