Newborn photographers specialise in capturing beautiful photos of babies and newborns. When babies are just born, they sleep a lot and don’t move around much, which is when photographers can take peaceful photos of them in front of the camera.
Many newborn photography sessions happen in the studio, in an environment designed especially for these types of photoshoots. Some newborn photographers can also come to your home and capture photos of your and your little ones in your own surroundings.
Photographers will usually have set packages and options for newborn photography sessions. This will be based on how long the session is and how many images are taken and delivered. Each setup takes time. Some baby photography sessions included a limited amount or images or prints so be sure to check. This isn’t always a bad thing as you’re probably better off with a selection of high quality images rather than getting lots of mediocre shots. Most of the photographers on this page have given guide prices, and you can find more details and prices if you click into their page.
Baby photography sessions can take anything from 1 to 4 hours, depending on the number of setup. Taking to work slowly and make sure baby is happy is key to a successful photoshoot with beautiful baby photos. Happy child happy everyone :)
The best time for a newborn photo session when your baby is up to fourteen days old. This might seem too early, but this is the time when your newborn baby is still very sleepy and can easily be photographed and positioned without bother.
If your baby is older than that, you can still capture wonderful photos professional photographer, they will just show them being more active. Babies are sweet and a joy to photograph in any age really, but if you’re looking to capture your sleepy newborn, book the session for when they’re under two week. We recommend talking to a photographer when you’re expecting.
Newborn photography usually takes place in the studio, a warm safe and pleasant environment so that baby is happy and calm. Some photographer can travel and capture baby photos at home too, or if the weather is good outside.
Most photographers don’t retouch newborn or baby photos. Post processing usually involved converting that camera’s RAW files (which cannot be opened without specialist software) and adjusting brightness and colours to ensure the photos looks their best.
Each photographer might work differently so we recommend discussing this and any needs you have with your photographer.
