The morning of your shoot should be stress-free and relaxed. You will get some beautiful shots of you and your little one. It’s most likely that If you stay relaxed those chilled vibes will rub off onto your baby.
Follow these tips below to help prepare for your newborn shoot…
• Think about what you and your baby are going to wear before the day, soft neutrals and whites are always a winner.
• Dress your little one before I arrive, which means less stress for you and keeps baby nice and calm. Also make sure that what they are wearing is comfortable.
• Feed your baby before I arrive. This increases the chances of a content bubba.
• Keep the room tidy so the backdrop in your photos will look lovely.
• If the baby/toddlers love music, get those tunes on!
• We may need the heating on! Babies get cold quickly and we want to keep them comfortable. So if you want any nude/near-nude baby photos I’d advise to put the heating on.
Hope this helps!
Love, Sarah xx
If you would like a newborn shoot in the first 4 weeks of birth, please book whilst you are still pregnant to make sure you secure your shoot. If your baby has already been born, I sometimes fit in sessions at late notice, so please get in touch to secure your date. If your baby is over 12 weeks old, a family shoot can be booked at any time. Drop me a DM or click the link in my bio to book your shoot!
Take a look below at baby Ellis’s at-home shoot. Just 8 days new! Pure perfection right there!
