When to book newborn photography session

When should I book a newborn photographer?

If you’re expecting and would like to book a newborn photography session for your baby, book in advance. Typically a newborn photographer will use your due date as a tentative date and set up the actual session once you deliver.

Read these top reasons why you should book your newborn photoshoot early.

While babies are gorgeous at any age, the best time to photograph newborns is in the first 1-2 weeks of their arrival. Because this is when babies are the sleepiest it makes those squishy newborn poses possible.
Since newborn photographers capture newborns under the age of 2 weeks, they usually accept a limited amount of sessions per week to be able to accommodate when babies are born early, or late. Accepting a limited number of families with newborns photoshoots, the best newborn photographers often get booked out a couple of months in advance.

Having a baby is a life-changer. While the first days spent with the child are precious, they can be overwhelming at the same time. Once the baby is born, there is no time to browse through photography websites and go back and forth with email and phone calls. Having your photography session booked in advance gives you one less thing to worry about.

Finding the right photographer for you can take a little while. Having a new born photoshoot is a personal experience so it is important that you connect with your photographer and you love their style. Booking in advance guarantees your spot with the photographer who matches your style.

If your newborn baby has already arrived and past the ideal first few weeks stage for photography, it’s not too late! Last-minute sessions are sometimes possible, do not hesitate to get in touch.
