2. Congratulations! You’re pregnant and due in the next six to eight weeks. It’s time to select a newborn photographer. You may already have a favourite photographer picked out, but if you don’t, here’s some information to help you choose the right one for you. There are two types of styles when it comes to newborn photography, and I’m going to tell you about what is involved for each type of session. First, there is the very well-known, posed newborn session. This session typically takes about three to four hours to conduct. The reason for this is because it is essential for the baby to be in a deep sleep in order for the photographer to pose the baby. The photographer, and the clients, need to allow time to get the baby to sleep, feedings, changing, soiled blanket removal, adjusting poses, adding props etc. All this must be done slowly and quietly so that the baby doesn’t wake up. Some photographers will do composite poses, like the “frog” pose, where the baby’s head appears to be held up by their arms. Please know that this is actually two images combined into one, and the photographer has an assistant hold the head in place. Other poses include more traditional, sleepy poses, and often hats, bows, bonnets, and even more recently, knit pants are used as props. The perfect shots clicked by Dinithi become beautiful memories which never fade away. A mother is never tired of seeing her children photographs even after years. The photographs by Dinithi are such that they take you down the memory lane. Every photograph in itself is a story and speaks. She is specialized in capturing every milestone of your child in her camera. Your treasured moments are very well captured on camera.

3. Another thing to note is that the photographer usually prefers the baby to be between six to ten days old at the time of the session. The photographer may come to your home, but more often than not, the photographer has a studio and would like you to come to them. This is a big thing to consider because as a new mom, you may not feel up to leaving your home in the first two weeks after birth. The second type of newborn photography that is gaining momentum is called lifestyle newborn photography. This session typically takes less time (usually one and a half to two hours) and doesn’t NEED to be done when baby is between six to ten days of age. The baby isn’t required to be asleep, and in fact, many parents love the awake shots, where those big, bright newborn eyes are staring into the camera as we try to discern what they may be thinking!

A lifestyle session involves a lot of cuddling with mom and dad (and siblings). They are usually done in the client’s home, and would involve using a number of different rooms in the home. we personally prefer to use the master bedroom, living room, and sometimes even the kitchen. A more journalistic approach is taken during the session, and while we will pose the family for a number of photographs, we’ll also capture those in-between moments during diaper changes, feedings and extra cuddles. we feel that these are important moments to capture. we’ve been thanked on several occasions for including those types of images because a few months down the road, those memories have begun to fade, and the client is thankful to have them to cherish.
