5 Things You Do Not Need to Stress About During Your Newborn Photoshoot
When it comes to photographing your bundle of joy, it should be stress-free. Heck, it’s suppose to be the most important time of your life. Capturing those tiny toes and fingers, back rolls, and squishy cheeks are those features that don’t last and are forever memories of the first few days. But if the thought of the photo shoot has you spiraling into a frantic frenzy, hold up. This is supposed to be fun and relaxing, not another thing to add to you to-do list where you are asking yourself, “I just had a baby, what I am doing.”
Today I am going to share 5 things you can stop worrying about…right now.
No props? Not a problem at all. There is no need to go out and buy several frilly outfits or blankets. I have a variety of outfits for newborn boys and girls. Between my blanket and wrap assortment, I have you covered. I also have tons of different props that can be used during the session, if we choose to. Only if you have a favorite outfit or blanket, or even a sentimental item, should you feel the need to bring. Relax, my studio is a treasure trove of all the cute props you could ever need. More than we can ever use during a session. I also listen to baby so the more natural poses are always my go-to.
What if baby won’t sleep? Again, not to worry. If baby is fussy, awake and not feeling the sleepy vibes, it’s not a problem. I’m not known as the ‘baby whisperer’ for nothing. Between white noise, a soothing pad, and a baby weighted blanket, I have several tricks up my sleeve to use. Don’t forget that eyes wide open on baby are also adorable.
Older siblings…bring them! I get it. Parents tend to worry about whether he other siblings will cooperate. I was one of those parents as well so I completely understand! It’s always a wildcard with toddlers but our studio has little ones all the time so I’m prepared. We go with the flow, take breaks, snaps photos all along the way, and if need be, I have no problem bringing out the prize basket or brining out the treats.
Worried about what to wear and how you look? Don’t. You have a new baby and YOU are amazing. I get it though and maybe you don’t feel glamour shot ready, and that’s okay. No need to sweat it as angles can be our friend and I’ll work with you to get beautiful images.
Cluttered home…I got you covered with my studio. No need to declutter or clean your home for photos. My studio is client ready. You get to sit on the couch, scroll Facebook and instagram, and drink coffee…or maybe take a much needed cat nap.
Let’s make memories you’ll cherish forever.
