There’s something so special about capturing a family’s first days with their newest little love. This sweet indoor newborn session was filled with tender moments — snuggles from mom and dad, and lots of love (and giggles!) from two very proud big brothers. Watching siblings dote on their new baby is one of the highlights of my job as a newborn photographer. You can already see the bond forming — protective, playful, and oh so sweet.
One of my favorite things about in-home newborn sessions is how natural and comfortable they feel. There’s no rush, no stress about leaving the house in those early weeks, and the photos reflect the warmth of real family life. Whether it’s Mom soaking in the quiet moments, Dad cradling his tiny daughter, or brothers peeking curiously at her little fingers, these memories become treasures you’ll hold onto forever.
Why Book Your Newborn Session Early?
Fall is such a busy time of year with school events, holidays, and family gatherings. It’s also one of the most popular times for family photo sessions. But here’s the deal — if you’re due in early 2026, now is the perfect time to reserve your newborn session.
Here’s why:
- Peace of mind – Reserving your spot early means you don’t have to think about scheduling once baby is here. You can then focus on soaking up those newborn snuggles and adjusting to a New Year and way of life.
- Flexibility – I pencil in your due date and leave room on my calendar, so we can adjust as needed when your little one makes their debut.
- Busy season availability – Fall fills quickly and once this year’s dates are full, next year will begin to fill up. I never want to turn a family away who is hoping for these once-in-a-lifetime images. Booking early ensures your session is on the calendar, even during the busiest time of year.
Because my calendar fills quickly in the fall, I always encourage expectant moms to book their session before baby arrives. That way, once your little one makes their debut, your time is already secured, and you can focus on those first precious snuggles without worrying about scheduling.
When is the Best Time for a Newborn Session?
Newborn sessions are typically scheduled within the first 7–20 days after birth. Babies are still very sleepy and curly during this window, which makes for those dreamy, snuggly images. That said, beautiful newborn photos can be taken at any age — it just depends on the style you’re envisioning. The key is to get on the calendar early so we can capture your baby at the stage you love best.
If you’re expecting in early 2026, let’s connect now to reserve your newborn session. It’s the perfect time to plan ahead so that when your baby arrives, all that’s left to do is enjoy the sweetness of those first weeks together.
