Why Professional Newborn Photography Matters More Than Ever
Your baby’s first few weeks are fleeting moments that pass in the blink of an eye. As a Coventry mum myself and professional photographer with over 14 years of experience, I understand how precious these early days are. Professional newborn photography isn’t just about beautiful images – it’s about preserving the essence of your family’s newest chapter.
When Should You Book Your Newborn Photography Session?
The Golden Window: 5-14 Days After Birth
The ideal time for newborn photography is within the first two weeks of life. During this period, babies:
- Sleep more deeply, allowing for peaceful posing
- Retain that curled-up, womb-like positioning
- Have fewer skin blemishes and baby acne
- Are more comfortable being handled and posed
Pro Tip: Book your session during your 20-week scan to secure your spot. As one of Coventry’s most experienced newborn photographers, my calendar fills up quickly, especially during peak baby seasons.
What Makes Coventry Newborn Photography Sessions Special?
Temperature-Controlled Studio Environment
My purpose-built Coventry studio maintains the perfect temperature (around 80°F) to keep your little one comfortable throughout the 2-3 hour session. The calming lavender scent and peaceful atmosphere help both baby and parents relax.
Safety-First Approach
With specialised training in safe newborn posing techniques and full insurance, you can trust that your baby is in expert hands. Every pose is carefully executed with your baby’s safety as the top priority.
Extensive Prop Collection
From delicate wraps and headbands to beautiful baskets and backdrops, my studio offers an extensive collection of props to create unique, artistic images that reflect your family’s style.
