What to expect at your baby photography session

A baby photography session is the perfect way to capture your fast growing baby whilst they are still small.
These sessions are suitable for babies between 6 weeks and 5 months.
For babies between  6-9 months (who can sit unaided but are not yet crawling) I offer sitter photography sessions.
I also offer newborn photography sessions and cake smash photography sessions in my photography studio here in Dorset.

What type of images can I expect?

The type of photographs you can expect from your session will largely depend on the age of your baby. 
A 6 week old baby is likely to still be very sleepy during the day and we may still get newborn style images, where as an older baby will be awake and more smiley.

Can I have a family photo at my baby photography session?

Yes of course, family photos can be included at no extra cost during any baby photography session.
Siblings are welcome too, but please bear in mind that I only offer baby photography sessions in the studio during school hours.

Before your baby photography session

​If you have time, have a look through my baby photography gallery to see which props / colours you might like to use. 
At this age, most parents choose to bring a couple of favourite outfits with them also. 
I have a beautiful collections of outfits and wraps in the studio so you do not have to bring anything if you don't want to.

During your baby photography session

When you arrive at the studio we will have time to get your baby changed and I will set out a couple of props (if you would like to use any) of your choice.
The session is led completely by your baby. It lasts up to 1 hour which allows plenty of time if you baby is still young and needs to stop for a cuddle or a little top up feed. 
If you baby is still very young or premature you may wish to consider booking a newborn photography session, which allows more time.

After your baby photography session

You get to go away with lovely memories and most likely a tired sleepy baby!
Your images will be presented in an online gallery which is sent via email for you to choose your favourites.
Then you will receive your images via email or in the post (depending on the package you have chosen) and you get to treasure them forever.
