How to Prepare for your Newborn Session
FEBRUARY 10, 2024
Congratulations on your newest family member! As you prepare for your little one's first photo shoot, I'm here to make the experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Here's a handy checklist to ensure everything goes seamlessly:
1. Schedule Early: Aim to schedule your session within the first 5-12 days after birth to capture those precious sleepy moments. Time flies, and these early days are fleeting!
2. Full Bellies, Happy Babies: Feed your baby just before coming into the session to ensure they are calm and content throughout. Remember to bring a bottle just in case they need a little comfort.
3. Button or zipper onesies: Make sure to dress your baby in a onesie with buttons, this will make it easier for me undress them as I prepare to swaddle them. Having something go over their heads can startle or wake them up.
4. What to wear? Soft, neutral colors work best to keep the focus on your adorable newborn. Think whites, beiges, and gentle pastels—they'll complement your baby's natural beauty.
5. Relax and Enjoy: Take a deep breath and soak in the moment. Your baby will sense your calm energy, making for a more serene session for all.
What to Bring:
* Extra diapers
* Bottle or formula
* Pacifier
* Burp cloth
* Wipes
* Spare outfit (just in case)
* Baby hair brush (optional)
