When to schedule your Newborn / Maternity Photo Session ?
- Ideally book your shoots during the beginning of your 3rd Trimester.
- Maternity shoots can be scheduled at your convenience as per your comfort and a little ahead of your planned delivery date.
- Newborn shoots are ideal between 5-15 days after birth. Newborns are most sleepy & curly during this period and is easier for them to be posed. Approximately two weeks after birth babies tend to get out of the natural curled up poses that they are used to in the womb and some poses may not be possible.
