Q. When is the best time to book my newborn photography session?
A: We recommend booking your newborn session during your second trimester to secure your due date. Newborn photos are best taken when your baby is between 5-14 days old, as this is when they’re most sleepy and naturally curl into those adorable poses.
Q. How much does a newborn photography session cost at Lavender Lane Photography?
A: Our newborn photography packages start from as low as $450, with our popular Belly to Baby package starting at $1050. Each package includes professional editing, high-resolution digital images, and the option to purchase more of your beautiful images post session.
Q. How long does a newborn photography session take?
A: Newborn sessions typically last 2-3 hours. This allows plenty of time for feeding breaks, settling, and capturing a variety of poses and setups. We never rush our sessions to ensure both you and your baby are comfortable throughout.
Q. What should I bring to my newborn photography session?
A: Please bring:
– Extra milk/formula
– Dummies/pacifiers (if used)
– Change of clothes for both baby and parents
– Any special items you’d like included in photos
We provide all props, wraps, and outfits for your baby and also offer a selection of gowns for mum to wear in our Classic and Premium packages.
Q. Where do the newborn photography sessions take place?
A: Sessions take place at our professional studio in Chermside West, Brisbane. Our studio is fully equipped with everything needed for newborn photography, including heating, sanitized props, and comfortable seating for parents.
Q. What safety measures do you take during newborn sessions?
A: Your baby’s safety is our top priority. We’re fully vaccinated, maintain strict hygiene protocols, and have extensive training in newborn handling and safe posing. All props and equipment are sanitized between sessions, and parent spotters are used for certain poses.
Q. What if my baby won’t sleep during the session?
A: Don’t worry! While sleepy babies are easier to pose, we can capture beautiful images of awake babies too. We’re experienced in settling techniques and can work around your baby’s natural schedule. There’s no rush, and we allow plenty of time for feeds and settling.
Q. Do you offer maternity and newborn photography packages?
A: Yes! Our popular Belly to Baby package combines both maternity and newborn sessions, starting from $1050. This package allows you to document your entire journey and saves you money compared to booking separately.
Q. How many photos will I receive?
A: Each package includes a different number of professionally edited digital images. You’ll have an online gallery to select your favorite images from, and we offer the option to purchase additional images or upgrade your package after viewing.
Q. When will I receive my photos?
A: Your online gallery will be ready for viewing within 2-3 weeks after your session. Once you’ve selected your images, your final edited collection will be delivered within an additional 2-3 weeks.
