FAQ
1) How soon should I have my newborn session after giving birth?
Newborn portraits are usually taken from 2 – 6 weeks from the day they arrive. The best time to capture them in sweet, beautiful poses is around 2 weeks as they easily pose, cuddles up and sound asleep. They will happily give you a couple of hours of poses. Older babies will provide other photographic opportunities but poses would not be as easy to achieve.
​
2) When is the best time to schedule my newborn portrait session?
You have prepared your bag for admission. You have notified your parents and confinement lady about the expected due date. You have picked out the clothes you would like your baby to wear when you guys leave the hospital. In the same way, you should schedule your newborn portrait session before your precious bundle arrives. Our weekly calendar is filled up ahead of time but with advance booking, we will be able to fit in your session within the optimum slot of 2 weeks from day of birth. You can book your session here.
3) How do I book without knowing my session date?
You can reserve your spot with your expected due date. Once your baby arrives, and is ready to go home, drop us a line or an email and we will schedule a session date and time within the first 14 days of your baby’s arrival. Upon booking, we will be sending you an email with information on how to schedule the session, what to expect from the session, things to prepare for you and your baby and many other helpful tips to make the session enjoyable and fruitful.
4) Can I incorporate siblings and family members in the photos with my baby?
YES! Including the family with your little one is an incredible experience for everyone. There will be an additional $50 on top of the session fee. Do let us know if you are considering this and we can advise you on how you can get the best result for this shot.
5) How long will my newborn photography session take?
A session will be from 2-2.5 hours. There will be breaks to allow for feeding and changing. The session is in a relaxed and comfortable pace to allow for baby to pose without stress. In general, it will be the baby that determines how we proceed in the session.
6) Where do the studio sessions take place?
We invite you to the private home studio of 1004 Photography. Everything is set up to give you and your baby a cozy and comfortable session. Just bring yourself and your baby. Accessories, props, toiletries and snacks are prepared to keep you and baby going (mainly you) through the session.
7) Who supplies all the cute hats/headbands for the baby?
We do! You will find a selection of hats, headbands and wraps to mix and match. While we will pair the best option for your angel but you are free to highlight a piece that catches your fancy and we will do out best to incorporate it in.
8) What if family members are involved in the session? Do you provide props for them too?
The focus of your newborn portrait session is on your angel. To make this possible, we advise family members that is involved in the session to come in comfortable, free moving clothes. We recommend solid coloured clothes (dark or soft is welcome). Avoid loud prints and patterns that distracts the composition of the photo. Typically, white or dark coloured t-shirts with jeans would come out best in the photo. Many clients find a modern, light and airy look is what works best for them.
9) My baby is already born. Am I too late to schedule a Newborn Session?
We are always happy to try and help capture the precious beginning moments of a newborn. Give us a call, and if our schedule is open, we can always accommodate you. Do take note that the best time to take newborn portraits is within the 5-14 days window. Older babies may not achieve some of the more adorable poses.
10) What happens after my session?
The portrait session is just the start towards your final premium. We will need to prepare your photos for the reveal and viewing session. This will typically take 1 week but may take up to 2 weeks depending on scheduling. We will then schedule a viewing session for you to choose the final prints to grace the premiums that you have selected. Your selected premiums will be lovingly delivered to you 2 weeks from selection.
