One of the compliments I get the MOST during my newborn sessions is:
“You are SO patient with her.” 🥹🤍
or
“You’re such a natural with him!”
And honestly… patience isn’t really an option when it comes to newborn photography. 😂
Newborns don’t care about our timeline, our poses, or what we planned to do next. They’re going to cry. They’re going to wiggle. They’re going to need to eat, be changed, be cuddled, or simply need a minute.
And that’s okay. 💕
I never want parents to feel like their baby is being rushed through a session just to get the “perfect shot.” My approach is very much baby-led. We take breaks when baby needs them, we adjust when something isn’t working, and we let baby set the pace.
I think that’s probably why people tell me I’m a “natural” with newborns. It’s not that every baby magically sleeps for me (although we LOVE when they do 😂). It’s that I’m comfortable with the unpredictable parts.
I’ve learned to read their cues, stay calm when they’re fussy, and know when to keep going and when to stop. (Becuase stopping when baby shows signs of being done is EXTREMELY important)
At the end of the day, baby’s comfort will always come before the photo.
And somehow, those little moments of patience, soothing, rocking, and waiting are often what lead to the most beautiful images.
That’s what newborn photography should feel like. not stressful, not rushed, but calm, gentle, and completely centered around your baby.
If you’re expecting, don’t wait until baby arrives to reach out! Newborn sessions are best reserved during pregnancy so I can make sure I have a spot for you on my calendar. Your baby will only be this tiny once, and I would LOVE to document this incredibly fleeting season for you. 💕
