I recommend that clients contact me during their second trimester to schedule their newborn photography session. At that time, we set a tentative photography date within 1 to 14 days after their baby’s expected date. Later, we make adjustments to the date and time if needed, depending on when the baby actually arrives.I’ve found that 5 to 10 days of age is the real sweet spot.After 15 days of age, a newborn baby likely to be less comfortable in curly newborn poses. In addition, their sleep patterns change, making particular poses much more difficult (sometimes impossible) to achieve.
