How to Prepare for Your Newborn Session | Eugene & Springfield Oregon Lifestyle Newborn Photographer

Preparing for a newborn session can make the experience relaxed and enjoyable for both parents and baby. Here’s how to get ready for your lifestyle newborn photography session.

Plan Around Baby’s Schedule

Schedule your session around your newborn’s feeding and nap times. Well-rested, content babies are easier to photograph and more likely to stay calm during the session.

Set Up a Comfortable Environment

Keep the room warm and cozy. Soft blankets, gentle lighting, and a quiet space help baby feel secure and make it easier to capture calm, natural moments.

Dress Comfortably

Choose simple, soft outfits for both baby and parents. Neutral or soft tones work best and keep the focus on your newborn.

Gather Special Items

Props like swaddles, family heirlooms, or favorite toys can add personal touches to your images and make them more meaningful.
