Your Newborn Photography Session – What to Expect

For your newborn photography session, my top priority is ensuring that your little angel feels completely comfortable, safe, and right at home during the entire session. I understand how important it is for both parents and baby to feel relaxed, so I always take a gentle, caring approach. Each session is unhurried, typically lasting between 1 to 2 hours, depending on what works best for you and your baby. Whether it’s pausing for feeding, soothing, or a cuddle, there’s always plenty of time to ensure everyone feels at ease.

From the moment you arrive, I’ll be there to guide you through every step—whether it’s finding the perfect pose, adjusting for your baby’s comfort, or simply capturing those adorable candid moments that reflect the real emotions and connections in your family. My studio is designed to be a peaceful, calming space, helping your little one settle into a safe and cozy environment that feels just like home.

After your Newborn photography session

Once the session wraps up, I’ll handle the professional editing with as much care as the shoot itself. You can expect a collection of beautifully crafted images that capture not only the love and joy in your family, but the true essence of your little one’s personality. Each photograph will be a timeless memory to treasure. 💖📸

Newborn photography session – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

We know you may have a few questions before your session at Shaby Photography, so here are some of the most common ones we receive:

1. What if my child doesn’t want to co-operate?

It’s completely normal for children to have their own moods, and that’s okay! In addition to having years of experience working with children, I am a Mother and very busy Aunt, so I know just how to make the session fun and relaxing.

Don’t worry if they seem restless at first— I’ve got lots of tricks to relax your baby and capture beautiful moments.

2. How long does a session last?

Sessions typically last between 1 to 2 hours, depending on the number of participants and the type of session.

However, I always allow for flexibility, so we can take breaks if needed and make sure everyone is comfortable.

3. Can we bring favourite toys or pets to the Studio?

Yes, favourite toys are a great idea and pets are absolutely welcome! I love including favourite toys or pets in portraits, and with a bit of planning, they can add so much character and warmth to your photos.
