There are so many things to think about when you have a newborn baby and fitting a photography session in is one of them! Between adjusting to life as a new mom and figuring out a sleeping and eating schedule for your little one, there’s not a lot of room left for making decisions about photoshoots. One of these decisions is deciding on a style or look for your session. That typically takes place in the initial search for a good newborn photographer. You see one whose style just clicks with your own and you choose. But then you may have some input for the session and get lost again in the decision making. Don’t worry, a good photographer can make all of those style decisions for you. Or at the very least, guide you to make choices that will suit your taste.

 

The Dreaded Props

Props. One of the first things people see when they look up newborn photos. There are so many trendy newborn photos that are surrounding your baby with props. Which can seem like a good idea at the time. However, in 10 years those props are going to look outdated at best and ridiculous at worst. I try my best to steer parents away from over-using props. They tend to crowd the photo and take the focus away from your beautiful nugget. Typically, the look does not age well. I work really hard to make my photos timeless. I urge all you parents out there to think about how the photos will age and keep props to a minimum.

 

Personal Items

A great prop idea is to bring a personal item that will likely have sentimental value to your baby later in life. Grabbing a cuddly blanket, or stuffed animal on your way out the door can be the one PERFECT thing for your session. One day your little one might be telling their family about their “favorite stuffed bunny” that they never left home without. How great would it be for them to have a newborn picture to prove it?
