Embarking on the journey of parenthood is a beautiful experience, filled with moments you’ll want to treasure forever. Photographs are an important part of holding on to these precious memories. In this post, we’ll delve into the perfect timing for when to do newborn photos, as well as other milestone sessions for your baby.

When To Do Newborn Photos

As a newborn photographer, I have had the privilege of photographing many newborns. I find it best to have a newborn photo session during the first two weeks of the baby being born. This way your baby will be sleepy during the session, and you will get beautiful photos of their tiny, sweet features.

 

Since you are already thinking about when to do newborn photos, now is a great time to consider the other milestone photos you will want, such as a 6-month, 1-year, and maternity session before the baby arrives.

Rachael Wendt Photography offers an exclusive First Year Membership to photograph your baby’s growth through three milestone sessions – newborn, 6-month, and 1-year. With the option to have an add-on maternity session. 

Past clients who have done the First Year Membership are so grateful to have newborn and milestone photos planned before the baby arrives. 

The Perfect Timing for Newborn & Milestone Photo Sessions

Newborn Bliss

The magic of newborn photography lies in the delicate features and sleepy poses that define the first two weeks of your baby’s life. The First Year Membership kicks off with a captivating newborn session, ensuring we photograph those tiny fingers and toes in all their perfection. 

The 6-Month Milestone

As your little one begins to sit up and explore the world around them, the 6-month milestone session is a celebration of newfound abilities and charming expressions. This session allows us to photograph the adorable transitions your baby makes during this exciting phase.

Celebrating One Year

The first birthday marks a significant milestone, and the first year membership culminates with a joyous first-year session. This session is truly one of my favorites as it’s a celebration for the whole family. Whether it’s a cake smash or a more traditional portrait session, I’ll photograph the personality and spirit of your one-year-old, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

The First Year membership is more than just a series of photo sessions; it’s a visual journey through the precious moments of your baby’s first year of life. From the serene innocence of the newborn stage to the playful antics of a one-year-old. I’d love to photograph your family so you have photos throughout the first year of your baby’s life that you love.
