What Is Newborn Photography?

Newborn photography is designed to capture the first weeks of your baby's life. Newborns grow and change so quickly, it can mean a lot to parents to have images of their little one in their first days. A newborn photography session generally takes place when the baby is less than two weeks old. At this age, your baby is still in that snuggly, sleepy phase that makes them easier to pose, resulting in some incredibly adorable photos?

Is Newborn Photography Worth the Investment?

Newborn photography is the only type of professional photography where the photographer needs to have the safety and well-being of the subject as their primary focus. Professional newborn photographers are trained in how to safely pose newborns, capturing memories that will last a lifetime.
