Six Benefits Of Hiring A Professional Newborn Photographer

Are you your family historian, and you love documenting your families story? And… you are excited to start taking photos of your newborn baby too! Time flies, and you want to ensure you’re capturing your connection with your newborn, particularly if you’re the primary family historian. Trust me, no matter how you feel you want to be in these photos!

I’d love to share with you six of the benefits of hiring a newborn photographer to document your growing family’s story.

You Should Be In The Photos

Whether you or your partner delivered your new baby, you should be in the photos…not just documenting your story. By hiring a professional newborn photographer you ensure that you all will be documented in your images.

You may not be feeling your best physically

After birth you may be tired, or not feeling the best…and by hiring a photographer you can just focus on your baby, partner, and family…and don’t need to worry about the physicality of trying to take the best photo. Leave the moving and squatting and stretching for the perfect shot to your photographer, and just rest that body that’s just done amazing work (and is often sleep deprived too!)

The value of a professional family photo when you’ve added a new member

Photographs of your newborn and your growing family will become heirlooms to be treasured for years to come. Their value will only grow over time as your family grows, and as your baby becomes a child, teen, and a parent themselves. Having professional quality photos will be a decision you will never regret.

Professional newborn photo session should be low stress

When you have a new baby, there are enough new stresses…remembering when they last ate, how many wet diapers they’ve had, etc…so by hiring a newborn photographer you ensure that you are documenting their story, and you don’t need to stress about it. The photographer will efficiently and creatively document the newborn stage, and deliver you a beautiful gallery of edited images to enjoy and display in your home. Currently, I offer beautiful print products as well right in your gallery, making the process of obtaining wall art and prints low stress and easy too!

A professional photographer will use the best light in your home and hospital

If you hire a photographer for either/both a fresh 48 and in home newborn session, they will find the best light at your location to create beautiful and timeless images of your newborn. They are educated to make the best use of light possible for beautiful photos.

You can focus on your newborn, siblings, and partner, while they focus on you

When you hire a professional newborn photographer, you don’t need to worry about the photos. You can focus on holding your newborn tight, attending to the new older sibling and give them extra love and cuddles, kiss your partner as you both hold your new baby close…and your photographer will focus on you and your photos.
