When do I feed my baby to prepare for our newborn session? This is a very popular question because as new moms, your whole life revolves around feeding your new baby!  Trying to coordinate feeding your newborn with a scheduled appointment may seem a little tricky. This is the beautiful advantage of having your newborn session in your home!  No stress of feeding before loading your baby and all of their belongings into the car!  You’ll want to feed your baby before our session but not necessarily before I arrive to your home. 

How long will our in-home newborn session take? This is such a great question to help prepare you and your family for a successful session. My sessions usually last 4-5 hours. Please consider the time that it takes me to transform your home into a temporary photography studio and time to comfort, change and feed your baby.

How old should my baby be for their newborn session?  This is probably the biggest question newborn photographers get asked by expectant parents.  The short answer is less than two weeks. Before two weeks, your baby is still getting used to being outside of your womb and is still extremely sleepy and flexible. As they get older they become increasingly alert to the world around them. They sleep less than they did in the first days and their muscles become stronger making sleepy poses more difficult. Around two weeks they have a growth spurt that makes them cluster feed more than usual and if any skin issues arise it will usually be after the two week mark. Although, around 14 days is my personal sweet spot for photographing newborns I’ve had plenty of successful sessions with older newborns.
