It's never too late to have your baby photographed. It is important to manage expectations of a session. Curly sleepy newborn photos are never guaranteed but usually achieved with babies under 2 weeks. Generally a baby over 5 weeks may not sleep at all during a session, nor be able to curl into womb positions or want to be wrapped. However, I do believe that babies can be successfully photographed at any age.
Newborn babies under 2 weeks generally are best first thing in the morning as they have been up all night. As they get older they are more awake in the morning, which is why I will schedule the older babies a tiny bit later. I have learned from experience that newborns in the afternoon or early evening are generally not as comfortable and therefore I do not photograph newborns later in the day.
Babies are babies and they will cry! I do everything I can to soothe and comfort them and surround them with a comfortable environment. As a Mother myself I have many soothing techniques and tips.
Many babies do not sleep thru their session. Some are wide awake the entire time! I can usually still achieve some amazing images, especially if they are wrapped!
I have a session for photographing baby only, or for a full newborn family session. If you would like to include the parents, siblings and any other family members, please chose the newborn and family session option. Grandparents are always welcome at no additional fee.
