You often hear newborn photographers talk about the two week window for your session. This is because babies are more likely to be sleepy and less likely to stir once asleep, which is what makes our job possible. Also, in the first few weeks babies are more curly from being in the womb so they will go into the newborn pose workflow, which also is not as likely for "Oldborns".
Oldborns are babies between the ages of 2 weeks and 2 months.
After a couple of weeks earthside their bodies start to stretch, their interest in the world starts to open up and photography sessions are not guaranteed to capture the same curly/sleepy poses that are more likely in the first two weeks.
Personally, I found it hard to leave the house after I had my first baby, everything was a little overwhelming. This is why I do not have a set time frame to book your session. I will photograph your family whenever is suitable for you, so long as I have a session available!
Here is a beautiful 5 week new baby boy who did have a big sleep at his session and we were able to capture these gorgeous photos for his mum and dad.
Please remember that sleepy photos are possible but not guaranteed when babies are this age.
