Frequently asked questions about maternity and newborn photography
When to book your Experience…
It is advisable to book your experience as early in you pregnancy as possible, the majority of our “Mums-to-be” tend to book shortly after their 12 week scan. Your Maternity experience is held around 32 weeks, the Belly cast would take place around 37 weeks and the Newborn experience would take place within the first 14 days of birth.
What is the best age to photograph a Newborn baby…
The best time is when your newborn baby is under 14 days old, after this 14 days it gets harder to settle your little one as they are no longer super sleepy, they start to loose their newborn curl and flexibility, also things like colic and baby acne start to play up.
How do I book…
You should book as soon as possible after your 12 week scan to guarantee a slot in our diary, we only pre-book 12 newborns in per month as our diary has got to be super flexible. We take your due date as a reference and when your new bundle of joy makes their appearance we will then place a firm booking for your experience.
