When to Schedule your Newborn Session
“How do I know when to schedule a newborn session?”
SCHEDULING YOUR NEWBORN SESSION
Thinking you’d like to do a newborn session with your little one to capture some of those precious moments with them when they are brand new?
I always recommend reaching out anytime after your first trimester to schedule. Make sure to reach out sooner rather than later to secure your date! Most newborn family photographers like myself are booked out months in advance.
You’ll want to schedule your session for sometime within babe’s first 21 days. This is the timeframe I like to recommend because new babies are easier to wrap and usually easier to get to sleep! This will allow for plenty of opportunities for that perfectly posed sleeping shot. Plus, getting in within those first few weeks means you get to capture them before they start growing! (it happens WAY too fast)
WHAT TO DO IF BABY HAS OTHER PLANS
Your due date was a week ago and you’re supposed to have your newborn session in a couple days. It happens! They don’t always get the memo about being on time for the session but that’s ok.
If this happens, no need to worry! I always leave a little flexibility in my weekday schedule to accommodate for rescheduling newborn sessions for my clients. Just reach out and we’ll work together to find another day to get you in the studio.
READY TO BOOK YOUR NEWBORN SESSION?
Babies change in the blink of an eye. That’s why it’s so important to capture that first stage of life. It would be an honor to capture those special moments of you and your family with your newborn.
