When is the best time to schedule newborn photos?
The ideal time for newborn photos is within the first two weeks after birth. During this time, babies are extra sleepy, cuddly, and still have that brand-new tiny look we all adore. That said, we’ve photographed newborns as early as 5 days and even up to 4 weeks old—every baby is different, and we’re happy to work with whatever timing is best for your family.
Can we be in the pictures? What about our other children (toddlers)?
Absolutely! We love including parents in newborn sessions—it’s such a beautiful way to capture your growing family. And yes, older siblings are more than welcome! There's nothing sweeter than a big brother or sister snuggling their new sibling.
Where will the session take place?
Your newborn session will take place in the comfort of your own home, where everyone feels most at ease. We’ll typically set up in the room with the best natural light—often the living room—but we also love using the master bedroom, nursery, or even your backyard if the weather is nice. Our goal is to create a relaxed and meaningful space.
What should we wear for newborn photos?
Start by thinking about the colors and style of your home, since that’s where your photos will be taken. From there, choose simple, neutral outfits that make you feel good. We also have a full style guide on our What to Wear for Family Pictures with inspiration and examples to help!
If you have special outfits or keepsakes for your baby, we’ll build the session around those. If not, no worries—we’ll bring a beautiful selection of wraps in different colors to choose from.
Do you photograph newborn twins? Is there an additional charge?
Yes, we do—and we absolutely adore photographing twins! There is an additional $150 charge for twin sessions due to the extra time and care involved. We also recommend having a friend or family member around to help during the shoot—it makes everything smoother, and let’s be honest, who wouldn’t want to come snuggle two adorable babies?
