Tampa Newborn Photography

What you can expect during your newborn photography session & how to prepare for it!

  • All newborn sessions are done in the morning and at my natural light studio or in your home. 
  • (if at your home)We will be shooting in the room with the most available natural light so make sure the room is clear and clean
  • Have that room warmed up with a space heater and/or turn your air up so that the room temperature is nice and warm
  • I will bring a heater and white noise machine should you not have one. If you have one or both of these things let me know so I do not have to bring mine.
  • Please have some music picked out and turned on in the room (I like white noise and music for as much ambient noise as possible so that nothing disturbs baby)
  • Keep baby awake for 1-2 hours prior to my arrival. This will insure a nice sleepy baby. 
  • Baby should be only in a diaper when I arrive, that way we do not have to disrupt him/her by undressing them
  • Have all items that you are interested in using in the shoot out and ready for me to sort through:  baskets, blankets, hats, headbands, etc. I bring everything I need, but if you have some personal props make sure you have them at the ready. 
  • Make sure nursery is nice and tidy, should we do photos of baby in there
  • I also like to do some family shots in your bedroom (if it suits you) Bed being messy is not a problem. These shots are usually in black and white so the messy bed just adds texture.
  • If you would like to be in images with your baby, make sure to look nice and wear colors that compliment your setting.  I suggest beautiful light colors for a soft and gentle look.
  • I don’t always have an assistant available so I may need help. It would be great if Dad is around – I don’t want Mom to be working too hard.
  • Be prepared for explosions of all kinds.  Poop, pee and spit up may go flying or spraying on anything around. (I get peed on a lot! ) Let’s have burp cloths, wipes and clean up stuff out and ready!
