A FEW COMMON QUESTIONS

A Few Common Questions

When should I book newborn photos?

As early in pregnancy as possible — the ideal newborn window is the first two weeks of life, and that stretch fills up fast for popular dates.

What age is best for newborn photography?

The first two weeks, while a baby still sleeps deeply and curls naturally into the classic poses.

How long does a newborn session take?

Typically two to four hours in-studio, paced around feeding and settling rather than a fixed appointment slot.

Can parents be in newborn photos?

Yes — most sessions build in time for a few frames with parents alongside the solo baby portraits.

Are sibling photos included?

Most sessions include time for sibling photos too — mention who's coming when you book.

Do you provide wraps and props?

Studio newborn sessions typically include wraps, props, and setups; in-home and lifestyle sessions rely more on what's already in your space.

Can newborn photos be taken at home?

Yes — in-home and lifestyle newborn photography are both real options; mention it when you book.

Is studio or in-home newborn photography better?

Neither is objectively better — studio sessions offer more posing control, while in-home sessions capture your actual space without travel.

How far in advance should we book a maternity session?

As soon as you have a rough due date — the best window is 30 to 36 weeks.

Do you serve towns outside your main list?

Often, yes — reach out anyway. We regularly place families outside our core list.
