Newborn Session Prep Guide

• Newborn sessions can last 1-3 hours so please come prepared to be with me for those hours. Bring everything you would need for a normal outing, diapers, wipes, spare clothing, drink or food for yourself, and anything you need to feed babe! I have a nursing pillow and couch your welcome to use and a changing station.

• Please feed babe as close to the session time as possible. If this is not possible due to a long drive your welcome to feed babe upon your arrival to the studio. We aim to have babe sleepy so we can get all those poses we aim for! Happy and sleepy babies are key to a successful session!

• Please dress your babe in something that is easy to remove upon your arrival and that won’t leave marks on their skin. If at all possible try to keep babe awake 1-2 hours before your session.

• If babe has dry skin apply lotion the night before and that morning if possible.

• If you have anything sentimental you would like to bring please do! It could be a small teddy bear, handmade blanket, wedding bands, etc. I will try to incorporate them!

• I look forward to meeting you and your new baby!!! If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask! If bringing other children, it is a good idea to let me know so we can plan. Most people bring a second person with them that can help and take the children once their part of the session is finished so we can continue with babe in a quiet space! Any questions please ask!
