Why Choose a Studio Newborn Photoshoot?

What to Expect During Your Session

Newborn sessions typically take place within the first two weeks after birth, when babies are sleepiest and easiest to pose. Our studio offers a relaxed pace, allowing for plenty of time to feed, soothe, and change your baby as needed. Sessions generally last 2–3 hours and are entirely baby-led.

Safety and comfort are our top priorities, and your little one is in experienced, loving hands throughout the session.

Including Parents and Siblings

Adding family members to your newborn session makes the experience even more special. Parent and sibling poses are always welcome and highly encouraged. As well as your beloved pets too!

We gently guide you into natural, connected poses that highlight emotion, touch, and togetherness. Whether it’s a tender kiss from a big sibling or a quiet snuggle with mom and dad, these moments create powerful, lasting memories.
