Why is newborn photography so important?
Capturing your baby now is so important. They don’t stay this little for long!

In the initial weeks after birth, babies typically experience rapid growth, However, the pace of growth varies from baby to baby. One of the earliest growth spurts occurs around 1 to 3 weeks of age so they will be changing from day one!
When is the best time to have a newborn photoshoot?
Newborn photography is at its absolute best when your little one is between 5 days to 2 weeks old. During this precious window of time, babies are typically sleepier and more able to tuck up into those adorable curled-up poses that we all love. They're also generally more settled and content, making it easier to capture those peaceful, dreamy moments that you'll treasure forever. Additionally, newborns tend to be most sleepy in the morning, which aligns perfectly with the optimal time for capturing those precious images. So, scheduling your newborn photography session during this early stage ensures that we can capture your baby at their absolute sweetest, creating timeless memories that you'll cherish for a lifetime.
Bendy babies.
Babies are incredibly flexible , especially within the first two weeks of life. During this time, their little bodies are still adapting to the world outside the womb, and their joints and bones haven't fully fused yet. This remarkable flexibility allows them to easily curl up into those adorable tucked-up poses that are so iconic in newborn photography. Their natural inclination to curl up is not only precious to behold but also makes it easier to wrap them snugly in soft fabrics, enhancing the cozy and adorable aesthetic of newborn portraits. So, whether they're nestled in a blanket or cradled in your arms, these early days provide the perfect opportunity to capture the unique charm and how tiny they are in all their tucked-up glory.
