posed newborn

Your newborn's first few days are fleeting, yet they are full of wonder, soft details, and pure innocence. In a posed newborn session, I capture these precious early moments with a focus on natural beauty and gentle posing. We’ll create timeless images that showcase your baby’s delicate features, from tiny fingers to soft curls. Every shot is designed to highlight the calm and peace of your newborn’s first days, preserving the memory of this tender time for you to cherish forever. These sessions are typically held within the first 14 days of life, when your baby is still small, sleepy, and flexible for those curled-up poses. Posed newborn photography sessions take place in studio.
