There is never enough time to capture all the tiny details, soak in all the snuggles, and breath in all the newborn smells. It always seems those very early days and fresh from heaven newness is gone with in a matter of a few weeks. While you’re in the thick of it. it might seem like it goes on forever, but in hindsight they change so quick. So much that it really is only a matter of days. That’s why we always suggest doing a newborn session, both studio or lifestyle, within the first two weeks of life. They start to look more like a baby baby and not a newborn after those first few weeks. We want to photograph that babe when they are their littlest and sleepiest. Like my amazing associate Simply Shelby by Lindzee, who had the opportunity to photograph this stunning newborn session within the first few days after her client was born. All of her itty bitty features were captured and the loving and tender moments with mom and dad were priceless. So if you are about to have a baby and want a newborn session, reach out to your photographer so you can set a ballpark timeline and then set a solid date once your little is welcomed earth side.
