Best Age for Newborn Photography (5–14 Days Explained)
If you're expecting a baby and looking for a Newborn Photographer in Bunbury, you may be wondering what age is best for newborn photography.

One of the most common recommendations you'll hear is that newborns are ideally photographed between 5–14 days old. But why is this timeframe so popular, and what happens if your baby is older?

At Carien Lee Photography, this guide reflects my personal experience and studio approach. Every photographer may have different recommendations based on their style and workflow.

Why Is 5–14 Days Considered the Ideal Newborn Photography Window?
During the first two weeks of life, many babies are:

Sleepier for longer periods

More comfortable being gently posed

Naturally curled from their time in the womb

Less easily disturbed when moved between poses

These factors often make it easier to create those classic newborn portraits that many parents envision when booking a newborn photography session.

For families looking for traditional newborn photography in Bunbury, the 5–14 day window typically offers the greatest flexibility.

What Happens After Two Weeks?
As babies grow, they become more alert and aware of their surroundings.

Around 2–5 weeks of age, many newborns:

Spend more time awake

Stretch out of their curled newborn positions

Become more interested in their environment

Develop stronger expressions and eye contact

While this may make some traditional newborn posing more challenging, it also creates opportunities for beautiful natural portraits that showcase your baby's developing personality.

Can You Still Have Newborn Photos After 14 Days?
Absolutely.

I regularly photograph babies up to approximately 5 weeks of age.

Older newborn sessions often focus more on:
👶 What is the best age for newborn photography?

One of the questions I get asked most often is when parents should book their newborn photos.

While 5–14 days old is often considered the ideal window for those sleepy newborn poses, beautiful images can still be captured well beyond those first two weeks.

I've put together a blog explaining why this timeframe is recommended, what happens if your baby is older, and when you should book your newborn session.

📸 Newborn Photographer Bunbury – When to Book Your Newborn Session

If you’re looking for a Newborn Photographer in Bunbury, here’s everything you need to know about booking your session with Carien Lee Photography.

This information is based on my personal experience and studio guidelines. Every photographer may have their own approach, but these are my recommendations for newborn photography in Bunbury and the South West WA region.

👶 Best time for newborn photography in Bunbury

The ideal time for newborn photography in Bunbury is when your baby is between 5–14 days old.

During this stage, babies are:

Sleepy and settled
Naturally curled into those soft newborn poses
Easier to gently pose for timeless images

I can also photograph newborns up to 5 weeks of age, depending on baby’s comfort and settling.

📅 When to book your newborn photographer in Bunbury

If you are searching for a Bunbury newborn photographer, the best time to book is while you are still expecting.

This ensures you don’t miss the short newborn photography window, especially during the busy and overwhelming early days of adjusting to a new baby.

This is something I see often—families waiting until after birth and then realising how quickly that newborn stage passes.

Once you book your newborn photography session in Bunbury, I will:

Secure your due date in my calendar
Reserve your newborn session
Contact you once baby arrives to confirm the session date
Adjust timing if needed based on your baby’s arrival and settling

This gives you complete flexibility while still guaranteeing your booking with your newborn photographer in Bunbury.

👨‍👩‍👧 Family newborn photography in Bunbury

I offer family newborn photography in Bunbury, which includes:

Mum, dad, and baby portraits
Sibling newborn photos
Grandparents (welcome to join)
