When to book your newborn photoshoot?

It's really up to you! A newborn photography session can be booked in any time from just a few weeks after you give birth to a few months after your baby is born. Do whatever feels right for you and your family. 

Babies younger than one month old are still very sleepy, so this age is great for those curled-up sleepy shots and photos of feeds and cuddling moments.

Babies older than a month tend to be more alert and they can already show so much personality by then! They won't be asleep all the time so there will be more "eyes open" shots and maybe even some first smiles.
