Hello and welcome! I’m Renata, a family photographer based in Scranton PA, and the surrounding areas of NEPA. I have received this question a few times, “Is my baby too old for newborn photos? “Did I miss my short window to get cute sleepy photos? Well, let me introduce you to this sweet baby boy who is 2 months old. Not only were we able to capture him awake but we also got the cutest sleepy photos.
What is the perfect time window for newborn photos?
Newborn lifestyle photos are more relaxed, they include the whole family and can be taken in the comfort of your cozy home. The best part? You can photograph babies up to 3 months old. Babies grow and change so much after birth so I recommend taking them as sooner than later. However, life happens, sometimes moms need more time to recover and sometimes babies need time to settle in and that is okay!! I am so passionate about capturing your family and telling your unique story no matter how old your baby is.
Do you bring props with you?
I have a bag full of things that I love to bring to every session such as; stretchy newborn wraps, bows for baby girls, hats for baby boys, a neutral blanket, and toys to get siblings’ attention. I always bring a baby basket as well. My favorite props are the ones you have already in your home such as a nursery rug, the beautiful personalized blanket you have, and anything that is unique to your family.
What if my kids don’t behave?
I understand this concern completely, especially since becoming a mom myself. I don’t expect them to behave the entire time! When I arrive I start photographing the family first so they can go on and play after. I hear from families that the favorite photos are the ones where I am able to capture the child’s personality. My goal is to make you feel comfortable, capture your authentic family and give you photos that you will love forever!
How long does a newborn photoshoot take?
You can expect me to be there for 1-2 hours. I am not in a rush at all. I allow time for feeding, diaper changes, and breaks.
How can I contact you?
