There's something pretty precious about a peaceful, sleeping baby, so we start with those images. Tiny fingers, toes, ears, noses, etc., make great "Precious Parts" panels, so we'll get those as well.
The contrast between baby's tiny little hands and your hands can be wonderful, so even if you don't want the rest of you in the photographs we love to capture these as well. However, we suggest a beautiful "mother and baby" portrait, sensitively posed to hide any extra "baby weight" you might be concerned about!
We love to show the relationship between baby and parents - the feeling of your new baby nestled in your arms, and the look on your faces as you gaze at this new little miracle you've created.
Babies are bits of stardust blown from the hand of God
The newborn session is typically done before the baby is 3 weeks old, to capture that absolute newborn look. We always schedule these sessions for at least one hour, so we can take all the time we need to create some wonderful images. If the baby needs time to be fed, held or reassured, it's no problem.
