When to Book Your Newborn Photography Session
Capturing your newborn’s earliest days is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. At Merry Pix Photography, we recommend scheduling your newborn session between 5 and 14 days of age. This timeframe is ideal because your baby will still be in that sleepy, curled-up stage, perfect for creating artistic and heartwarming portraits.
Why Schedule a Newborn Photoshoot Early?
- Sleepy and Flexible for Posing:
During the first two weeks, babies naturally sleep longer and remain more relaxed, allowing us to pose them creatively in adorable outfits and props. - Preserve Fleeting Moments:
The newborn stage passes quickly, but a professional photoshoot captures these tender moments forever. - Variety of Poses and Props:
Early sessions let us experiment with a range of cute clothes, wraps, and props to create timeless and unique portraits you’ll treasure forever.

Plan Ahead for Your Newborn Session
To ensure availability and give you a stress-free experience, we encourage parents-to-be to book their newborn photography session well before the baby is born—ideally during the second or third trimester of pregnancy. This helps us secure your session within the recommended time frame of 5 to 14 days after birth.
