Bringing a newborn into the world is one of life’s most beautiful experiences — and capturing those early moments is something every parent cherishes forever. A professional newborn photoshoot preserves those precious expressions, tiny fingers, and peaceful snoozes in stunning images you’ll treasure for a lifetime.
At Newborn Baby Photography Studio, we understand that as new parents, you may be unsure about how to prepare for your baby’s photoshoot. Here’s a helpful guide to make your session smooth, safe, and stress-free.
👶 What to Bring
While we provide most of the props, wraps, and backdrops at our studio, here’s a checklist of what you should carry:
- Diaper Bag: Diapers, wipes, burp cloths, and an extra blanket
- Baby Essentials: Formula or breast milk, pacifiers (if used), extra clothes
- Sentimental Items: A family heirloom, soft toy, or blanket you’d like featured in the shoot
- Snacks & Water: For mom and dad — you’ll be with us for 2-4 hours
👗 What Should the Baby Wear?
Less is more! For newborn sessions:
- Dress the baby in easy-to-remove, loose-fitting clothing to avoid waking them up when changing.
- Avoid tight socks or elastics that may leave marks on the skin.
- Most of the photos will be done with wraps or without clothing, using cozy, soft fabrics provided by our studio.
🍼 Feeding and Sleeping Tips
We aim to capture your baby in peaceful, curled-up poses — which is easiest when your baby is deeply asleep. Here’s how you can help make that happen:
- Feed your baby just before the session, or as soon as you arrive at the studio.
- Keep your baby awake for 1–1.5 hours before the shoot if possible — a warm bath or gentle playtime works well.
- Bring extra feeds in case the baby needs to be soothed mid-session.
Don’t worry — we take multiple breaks for feeding and cuddles as needed.
👨👩👧 Parent Dress Code
If you’re participating in a few family shots:
- Choose neutral, solid colors like beige, white, grey, or pastel tones — these don’t distract from your baby.
- Avoid large prints or logos.
- Moms may consider light makeup and soft-colored tops.
- Dads can wear plain t-shirts or button-down shirts in complementary shades.
- Keep it simple, classic, and comfortable.
We also recommend bringing a spare outfit in case of any unexpected baby messes!

At Newborn Baby Photography Studio, your baby’s safety, comfort, and hygiene are non-negotiable. Here’s how we ensure it:
