How to Prepare for Your Newborn Photoshoot

Preparing for a newborn session at home doesn’t need to feel overwhelming.

In fact, simple is best.

Don’t worry about a perfect home

You don’t need a spotless house.

I only use:

  • A few key areas with good light

  • Clean, uncluttered spaces

Keep colours neutral

Soft tones photograph best.

Think:

  • Whites

  • Creams

  • Soft greys

Avoid bold patterns where possible.

Prepare for warmth

Babies settle best when warm.

Keep your home slightly warmer than usual during the session.

Feed your baby just before

A well-fed baby is a settled baby.

This helps:

  • Sleep

  • Comfort

  • Smooth transitions

Final thoughts

Your home doesn’t need to be perfect — just lived in, calm, and ready to welcome your baby.
