Must have newborn photos
Newborn Front Pose with Hands on Chin
The front pose with hands on chin is one of my favourite newborn photography shots, showcasing the adorable details of your baby’s face. It’s a popular choice for many parents because it highlights their newborn’s tiny features—like that sweet little nose and those chubby cheeks. This pose captures the essence of your baby’s innocence, making it a perfect addition to any newborn photo session in Bexley, London, or Kent.
Newborn Side Pose Photography
The newborn side pose is a beautifully natural position that many babies instinctively fall into. This is an easy and popular pose to create during a session. Simply use a soft pillow and wrap to gently position your baby on their side, supporting their cheek with a hand. This pose produces the most serene and sweet newborn photos, highlighting your baby’s peaceful nature. Ideal for newborn photography in Bexley, London, and Kent, this pose is a timeless addition to any collection of newborn portraits.
Wrapped Newborn Photography in a Prop
There are many beautiful ways to pose a wrapped newborn, whether fully wrapped or with their little feet peeking out, like in this image. One of my favourite techniques is placing the newborn in a basket and photographing from above, which I use in nearly every session. Adding a cute prop, like a tiny teddy bear in their hands, enhances the shot and is always a popular choice with parents. This timeless pose works beautifully for newborn sessions in Bexley, London, and Kent.
Side Bum-Up Newborn Pose
The side bum-up pose is a popular choice for many parents. This pose involves placing your baby on their belly, with their head facing forward, creating a sweet, natural look. During every newborn session, I ensure to capture this pose from various angles: front, above, and close-ups. It’s a timeless and beautiful pose that consistently results in stunning newborn portraits, making it a must-have for any newborn photo session in Bexley, London, or Kent.
Front Pose in Bucket for Newborn Photography
The front pose in a bucket is a favourite among parents, creating a cozy and adorable shot. This pose is similar to the chin-under-hands pose, but with the baby gently placed inside the bucket. It's crucial to safely pad and fill the bucket, ensuring it’s secure with added weight at the bottom for safety. This timeless pose is a perfect addition to any newborn session, creating precious moments captured beautifully in photos.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How should I prepare for my newborn photo session? To prepare for your newborn session, make sure your baby is well-fed, comfortable, and relaxed. Bring along extra diapers, wipes, and a favourite blanket. It's also helpful to dress your baby in loose, easy-to-remove clothing to avoid marks on their skin.
- How soon after birth should I book a newborn session? It’s best to book your newborn photo session within the first two weeks of birth. This is when babies are still sleepy and more poses are possible, making it easier to capture those precious, peaceful moments.
- What should my baby wear for the shoot? For the shoot, I recommend dressing your baby in simple, comfortable clothing that won’t leave marks. Often, parents choose soft wraps or props, but we can discuss your preferences during the booking process to ensure your baby looks cozy and cute!
