Frequently Asked Questions

Being a newborn photographer is truly one of my greatest joys. My job goes beyond capturing beautiful images of your little one—it’s about guiding and supporting you during this incredibly exciting (and sometimes sleepless!) season of life. I know how precious and fleeting these moments are, and I’m here to help you feel prepared and relaxed every step of the way. Here are some common questions and answers to help you get ready for your upcoming newborn session:

When To Schedule My Newborn Photo Session?

The best time to schedule your newborn photography session is during pregnancy. I’ll reserve a date around your due date, ensuring flexibility in case your little one arrives early or late.

Once your baby is born, simply reach out to finalize your appointment. If your baby has already arrived and you haven’t pre-booked, don’t worry—contact me right away so I can try to accommodate your session.

How Old Should My Baby Be for Their Newborn Session?

The ideal age for newborn photography is between 5–10 days old. During this time, your baby is still in the curled-up, sleepy stage, which allows for capturing those sweet, classic poses everyone adores.

I typically photograph babies between 5 days and 4 weeks old. After the 3–4 week mark, we’ll adjust to a style better suited for older babies to ensure we still create timeless memories.

Where Will My Photo Session Take Place?
All newborn photography sessions take place in my cozy, thoughtfully designed studio located in Torrance, California. My studio provides a safe and serene environment where everything is set up to make you and your baby comfortable.
I bring all the essentials—wraps, props, baskets, and more—so you don’t have to worry about anything. The studio is optimized for creating beautiful, timeless images.
How Long Will The Session Last?
A typical newborn session lasts 2–3 hours. This allows for feeding breaks, soothing, and plenty of time to pose your baby safely and comfortably. My goal is to create a relaxed experience for both you and your little one.
