Newborn Photography | Digital Photography I'm sure you may have read different ways newborn photographers ask their clients to prepare for their newborn photo session. The following information is what I ask my clients to do in order to prepare their newborn for our session. For newborns, they should be fed within a half-hour of the session start time, bathed and only dressed in a loosely attached diaper and loose swaddle blanket so we don't have to disturb your sleeping baby by having to undress them. They are more at peace with a full belly and a clean body. Please try to keep your baby awake for one hour prior to the start of our session in order to have a very sleepy baby. This will save us time in the session from trying to get the baby to sleep. We know babies don’t always cooperate when you want them to. That’s okay. I love my sessions to be fun and the least stressful as possible. I work slowly and follow baby's cues. If we need a break, we’ll take one. Play, take some candids (which sometimes can be the best pictures) and try again. Hopefully, by the end of the session, we would have created great moments that will last a lifetime. Keep your house warm during our session. This will help keep your "in the buff" baby asleep. Setting your thermostat at 75 - 80 degrees should do the trick. It will be warm for us, but perfect for your baby. As I need a quiet, calm and relaxed atmosphere, please do not have others (including animals) in the room at the time I am photographing your baby. It is better for your baby to wake up from hunger and be fed than from others talking too loudly. That's why it's imperative I work in a quiet, non-distracting atmosphere. What to Expect We will take approximately two - three hours for your session, so please plan accordingly. Expect messes and frequent feedings. Babies tend to eat more during a session, which is completely normal. I will bring several hats, blankets, wraps and other props for your newborn session. Several photos will be taken in their "birthday suit" along with the wraps, etc. However, please feel free to make available your own special outfit, toy or blanket, etc. that you would like to use in the session. That's it. I'll take care of the rest. Ready to book? Click on the button below. Patti specializes in Maternity, Fresh 48 and Newborn custom photography.

Can you really spoil your newborn by holding them too much? This seems to be a common misconception as most people advise you not to hold your baby too much out of fear of spoiling them and not teaching them independence. According to an article posted on moms.com, this is not necessarily true. In this article, it states, "A new study published in Current Biology states that holding your baby, and touching them and caressing them not only doesn't “spoil” them but actually acts as a stress reliever."

You know how mamas-to-be get pampered before having a baby. They get all the goodies for the baby, gift baskets, spa days, manis-pedis, etc. before the big day arrives. But, what about the dads? They may feel left out in all the excitement of preparing for his baby's arrival. Now, your guy may be just fine with that and that's great. But, for those that may be feeling a little left out, there is something you can do. I have always been a big proponent of making the guy feel just as special as the girl. For example, when my husband and I got married, I wanted him, the groom, to feel just as important as me, the bride. We always hear it's the "bride's day," but the groom is just as important. So, I asked/wanted my fiancé to walk down the aisle; not just walk out the front with all of his groomsmen as usually is the tradition. He, at first, was't too thrilled about it, but after making a deal with him, he agreed and it was a hit. All the guests loved it. All of this to say, I feel the dad expecting his first or even his second, third, fourth, baby should feel just as important as the mom. Therefore, what better time to show him some love, appreciation and support than "pampering" him for Valentine's Day, especially if your baby is due or nearly due around this special "love" time. You could put together a box of his favorite goodies, such as soap, cologne, candy, books about being a daddy he can read to the baby, sports onesie he will enjoy dressing the baby with, earplugs, etc. and other little personal items you know he will enjoy. Be creative. Search Pinterest. I found several ideas when I searched under "New dad goody basket." You could make your own tags with special messages, i.e. "#1 Dad," "World's Best Daddy," "We love you," - you get the idea, and attach to various items you include in the box and don't forget a special love note. After all, it is for Valentine's Day! He could even take some of these items to the hospital with him just like you take your hospital bag. If you decide to do this, please share. I would love to see what you create! Have fun! Patti specializes in Maternity, Fresh 48 and Newborn custom photography.
