Have you ever wondered why a newborn photo session can’t be quick and is usually 3-4 hours?!
People often think a newborn session is something fast and easy.
But newborns are all completely different and in some ways the same. They eat, they wake up, they need to feel warm and safe, and sometimes they just need to stay in your arms a little longer.
During my sessions, I follow the baby. With a baby led session,
We pause, we wait, we move slowly. Some babies do not like certain positions and they will let me know.
One photo can take time to just settle the baby, and that time is part of the process.
When a baby feels calm, everything else will fall into place. It just may take more time for some. As always though, Safety is always top of my list!
Please share with others that are expecting...I would love to be their family photographer and capture the milestones and adventures of their family.
