This session was done inside their home! I brought a backdrop to make it look like a studio session. It was easier for momma to have it in her own home, versus travel to the studio with her older children.

Studio newborn photos refer to the art of capturing beautiful and artistic images of newborns in a professional photography studio.

These sessions are designed to create timeless and unique memories of your little one in their earliest days, with careful attention paid to lighting, posing, and composition to showcase their delicate features and innocence.

These sessions are typically scheduled within the first two weeks of the baby’s birth, as during this time, newborns are still very sleepy and easily poseable.

During the session, the photographer will carefully position the baby, making sure they are comfortable and safe, and use specialized lighting techniques to create a soft and flattering look. The goal of studio newborn photography is to capture the beauty and innocence of the newborn, highlighting their delicate features, tiny fingers and toes, and perfect little expressions.

The session typically lasts between 2-4 hours, allowing plenty of time for feeding, diaper changes, and soothing the baby. Parents are encouraged to participate in the session, and many photographers offer a variety of props and backdrops to create a unique and personalized look.

The final images are carefully edited to remove any blemishes or imperfections, resulting in a stunning collection of photographs that will be cherished for years to come.

family photographer Katy- Why do photographers want to shoot in the evening?

The time that I choose to photograph a majority of my clients is the hour before sunset, the golden hour. I live for those dreamy, sun hazed filled images.  I joke that I want to be ” One with the Sun” when I am photographing, but seriously, I do. The lighting is the #1 thing that I focus on when choosing when and where we will hold your session.

Are there any exceptions? Sure there are. If it is cloudy, the area is heavily shaded, or we are shooting indoors (mostly newborns and sitters).

Will you really turn down a shoot because someone wants their session at noon? I will. I want your pictures to be amazing, if they are taken at noon, I know that the lighting will not be there. I will not chance it. If you are paying for professional portraits, it is an investment and it is memories, I want them to be worthy of hanging on your walls for years to come.

Below I will show you some photos taken in Katy, Texas during the Golden hour. I will also upload one that I did a while back, before I stuck to my Golden hour rule.

Katy newborn photography studio-When should you book?

Katy newborn photography studio-MJ

When should you book your newborn session? Every photographer is different for this, but ideally you should book during your first or second trimester. This makes sure the photographer has your due date available! Most photographers only book a certain amount of newborns a month, make sure you are in there!

The best time to book your newborn photos is when you are around 20 weeks along. You will want to photograph your baby when they are between 5-17 days.

Really? Book your newborn photos while you are still pregnant?

Yes! Here’s why. Most photographers only accept a certain amount of newborn clients per month. This ensures that we are able to capture each newborn within the 2 ish weeks that is best for photos. You really want to capture your newborn baby while they are 17 days are less.

But isn’t my baby still a newborn at 2 months old?

In the real world yes. Yes they are. But in photography world, newborn photoshoots are done within 2-3 weeks. This is because after two weeks of age, babies start waking up more and are less posable. Simply put, babies 2 weeks or under sleep a lot more and squish into poses better.

So if I forget to book within the first two weeks, is it too late for a newborn session?

No. While it is preferred that you bring your baby for their session in studio while they are under the 2ish weeks, it is not mandatory. Some photographers will turn you away, but others like me will gladly still take your little one in studio and capture them. All poses are not guaranteed, and you have more awake shots than asleep, but it is definitely still possible!

It is never too early to book your newborn photographer. I have had clients book me at 7 weeks along! They know they want their baby’s photos done by me and wanted to ensure that I would have an opening for them. So as soon as you know which newborn photographer that you want to use, book them to be safe!
