One question I get asked often is, "When should I book my newborn session?"


My recommendation is to book at any point in your second or third trimester to ensure you secure a slot with your favorite photographer who specialises in newborn photography, as we tend to book up well in advance.


Newborn sessions are typically scheduled within the first two weeks of birth. This period is ideal because babies are still very sleepy and can be easily posed for those adorable, curly newborn shots. Booking early gives you peace of mind and ensures that you'll capture those precious early moments.


Keep in mind that photographers may have limited availability, especially if they specialize in newborn photography. By booking ahead, you not only guarantee a spot but also have time to discuss your vision and preferences with the photographer.


So, as soon as you have your due date, reach out to your preferred photographer to secure your session. This way, you'll have one less thing to worry about as you prepare for your little one's arrival.
