How old should my baby be for the photo session? The best time frame is when your little one is within the first two weeks of their life. Newborns are much more pliable and flexible for different poses when they are under 14 days old.

Fun Fact: A newborn really has nearly 300 bones & cartilage pieces, which after that 10 to 14 days (2 weeks) mark, start to fuse together into calcified bone, which makes it much harder for them to return to that in-the-womb position they’ve been in for the last 9 months. It is much more comfortable for them to be moulded into the adorable position while they still have the luxury of pure flexibility.

We can take newborn photos after two weeks but you'll have to opt for different poses and concepts. Your newborn will likely be awake during the session so we will be aiming for photo that include little one wrapped or clothes on. Taking newborn photos after two weeks isn’t unheard of and your photos will still turn out great.

However, your little one won’t curl up so easily after two weeks so I will be taking different approach with the photos. Babies begin to stretch and extend their arms and legs after two weeks, making it harder for them to naturally curl up during photos.

Don’t be discouraged though by timing as you should still schedule a newborn session even if two weeks have passed by. The session will likely take a little bit longer but we still get amazing photos. We will try our best to achieve those cute newborn poses :)

Baby only may take between 2-3 hours and for parents and siblings added into the mix, it may take up to 4-5 hours. It really all depends on baby and how they are feeling, we will follow their preference, they run the show!

Having only parents and baby is best. Having a number of people can be too noisy, distracting, and can interrupt the baby's sleep for the session.

I do request that you bring the siblings at the very beginning of the session so they can go home or bring them to the park during the session with the little one.

Once your baby’s session is reserved with a non-refundable retainer, we have carved out a time slot for your baby – early or late. We have never missed a baby session.
