Checklist for Newborn Photo Session
Please dress your baby in loose, comfortable clothing to avoid any imprints on their delicate skin. Bring a change of clothes for mom, dad and baby. There may be a chance of accidents when parents are posing with their naked baby so an extra outfit will come in handy.
For Baby
Multiple Nappies - I may use extra nappies during the session
Wipes- for nappy changes and spit ups
Baby brush- If your baby has hair this is a must
Feeding supplies for at least 3 feeds- Babies tend to feed more due to sessions. They use a lot of energy and also may get thirsty
Soother- it may be the key to getting those perfect photos if baby is unsettled - not essential
Feeding Cloths- For feeding and spit ups
Change of clothes - in case of leakage!
Blanket- I will wrap baby in his/her blanket at feeding time
For Family
Snacks & Drinks - Sessions are usually at 10am so you may not have had time for breakfast. Feel free to bring your breakfast along. Also it is important to have snacks for siblings. The studio is warm so water is a must.
Change of clothes for everyone- Accidents happen and while we usually remember to bring a change for the kids, it is important to remember a change for parents too.
Him: Black T-shirt- In addition to the normal family shot, I like to do a simple parent shot so a plain black T is perfect.
Her: Black thick strap vest- In addition to the normal family shot, I like to do a simple parent shot so a vest is perfect. Thick strap to hid bra strap.
Entertainment for siblings- the session can be up to 3 hrs long. Siblings will get bored easily if they have nothing to do. I provide a few puzzles and colouring pages but you might want to bring something also.
