Planning Your Newborn Session
When to Enquire
Before Birth
You can enquire during pregnancy and discuss how the session date will be adjusted around the actual birth date.
First Two Weeks
Some families prefer an earlier session; the approach should still follow your baby's individual needs.
Later Sessions
Newborn photographs can also be planned later, with poses and timing adapted to your baby.
