Newborn sessions are always held at your home. Your baby should be photographed as early as possible to achieve the sleepy, curly photographs you see in my galleries. The optimal age for a newborn session is within the first two weeks. Please contact me before giving birth to book your session. If your baby has already arrived, please email or call now.
There is nothing more beautiful and pure than a brand new life. After a few weeks, this newness begins to fade and change quickly. Having your baby photographed as early as possible will ensure you remember this incredible time in you and your child's life forever. Newborns are my favorite subject to photograph...it would be an honor to document the beginning of a lifetime of love with you & your new baby.
At what age should my newborn be photographed?
Once a baby is born, they quickly begin to grow and change. The optimal age for newborn portraits is within the first 2.5 weeks of life. Around 7 days old is Emily's preference.
