For those gorgeous sleepy baby photos you need to get the photos taken in the first two weeks! 

At this age your baby is happy to curl up and be moved around and is still very flexible. If your baby is older than 2 weeks please have a look at my  Older Babies packages. 

The best time to take the photos is usually the morning, by the time your little bundle of joy has kept you up all night, they are ready for a feed and a nice long nap!

I recommend a feed just before leaving for the shoot and then a top-up when you get here so that they will fall asleep soon after arriving.

Well, that depends on your baby, if he or she is very sleepy it will take about an 2 hours. If your baby is unsettled it could take 3 hours, either way it doesn’t matter, we go at the baby’s pace and comfort.

I love what I do so I can spend the whole day, it doesn’t faze me (but I don’t think baby would be too keen!).

In order to avoid disappointment, it’s best to book your newborn shoot while you are still pregnant. That way you know that I have space for you.

If your baby comes early (or late) it is easier to swap with someone else if we have an appointment reserved.

I have heaps of props and backdrops, so as far as your baby is concerned, just bring any toys, quilts or clothes that you particularly would like a photo taken with.

For the parents, as much flesh showing as possible is good, so bring a black sleeveless or short-sleeved top, and dads if you’re happy going shirtless you will get some stunning photos! Mums don’t worry about the post-baby bulge, the photos will be from elbows up!
