Capturing The Sweetest Moments Of My Little Newborns

There’s something magical about a newborn peacefully snoozing in a cozy prop, whether it’s a tiny wooden bed, a soft bucket, or a rustic bowl layered with textures. These images highlight just how small and delicate your baby is in those early days, freezing a moment in time that passes far too quickly.

As a newborn photographer, one of my favorite setups is photographing little ones asleep in props because the results are timeless, sweet, and incredibly heart-warming.

What many parents don’t realize is how much thought, training, and safety preparation goes into creating a setup like this. Every prop is carefully weighted, padded, and stabilized. I always ensure your baby is fully supported, comfortable, and never in a position that compromises their safety.

My goal is to create dreamy images while maintaining the highest standards of newborn safety behind the scenes. When baby is in that deep, cozy sleep, it allows me to capture those soft expressions and tiny details you’ll want to remember forever.

The key to achieving these beautiful images is timing.

Newborns photograph best within the first two weeks of life, when they are still sleepy and love curling naturally into those sweet poses. Because that window is so small, planning ahead is incredibly important. Many parents are surprised to learn how quickly newborn sessions fill up, especially during busy seasons, because each due date requires multiple days held on my calendar to account for early or late arrivals.

That’s why the simplest, stress-free way to secure your session is to book before your baby arrives.

When you reserve a newborn session with me, I pencil your delivery date into my calendar. This gives you peace of mind knowing your spot is saved. Then, after your baby is born, you reach out to me and we lock in the final session date based on how you’re feeling, baby’s feeding schedule, and your recovery.

It’s an easy, flexible process designed to take one more thing off your plate during those early days of newborn life.

If you’re expecting and want these sweet, prop-posed sleeping portraits for your own family, now is the perfect time to reach out. Newborn sessions book quickly, and planning ahead ensures you don’t miss this fleeting stage.

Contact me today to reserve your due-date spot. I’ll take care of the rest, and together we’ll create beautiful, timeless images of your new little love.
