Newborn Photography FAQ – Everything Connecticut Parents Want to Know

What is the ideal age for a posed newborn photography session?

The “ideal” age for a posed newborn photography session is 5-15 days old. This age is considered to be ideal because the babies are still super curly and sleepy, allowing for those adorable womb-like poses.

If your baby is older, don’t worry – you can still capture beautiful images. While older newborns may not pose or be as sleepy, we are highly experienced in posing babies of all ages and can still photograph a mix of sweet sleepy images and stunning wide-awake portraits.

When should I book my studio newborn photographer?

Most families book their studio newborn photographer during the second trimester. Luxury newborn photographers in Connecticut typically take on a limited number of sessions each month allowing for the unpredictability and flexibility needed of newborn babies.

Booking your newborn photographer early guarantees a spot on the photographer’s calendar and you gives you priority scheduling once baby arrives. If your baby is already born or you are booking last minute – I often have last-minute options, depending on availability so do not hesitate to reach out.

What is included in your all-inclusive newborn photography packages?

All newborn packages include fully styled sessions, access to the high-end props, full posing/session time, professional editing, and the included number of digital files and print credits. The only thing you have to bring is yourself and your baby. The studio is packed with props, wraps, headbands, bonnets, and so much more to create gorgeous styled sets that will be used during your newborn set. You will have the option to wear one of our gorgeous dresses for the photos or bring your own. Each package clearly states the number of setups and digital images that are included so there are never any surprises.

Where is your newborn photography studio located in CT?

Our studio is located in Madison CT. It is located in a quiet cul-de-sac with ample parking. The private space allows the parents to truly relax and enjoy their experience while their baby is safely guided into gorgeous poses highlighting their newborn features. The studio is stocked with everything you need for a fully-styled newborn session as well as amenities the parents can enjoy such as a hot cup of coffee or decaf, tea, and snacks.

Do you offer authentic family portraits during the posed newborn session?

Absolutely – we offer authentic family portraits during newborn sessions. The studio is setup in a way that allows us to capture both posed and authentic portraits that show off the connections and new love that parents experience. During your newborn session we will guide you through poses that will highlight the love, capturing authentic, loving family connections while maintaining the safe studio environment.

Do you travel to my home for newborn sessions in nearby towns like Guilford or Branford?

Our high-end posed style requires controlled lighting and extensive props that are all available in our Madison CT studio. Our clients love that they do not have to clean their homes or get anything prepared ahead of time other than just drive to our studio. Once you arrive, you’ll love the cozy vibes in the studio with shushing sounds for the baby, laid back music for the parents and a warm, lavender scented studio space. The parents get to sit back and relax while we safely and expertly work with their newborn baby to pose them in the most adorable ways.

What our clients say

Had a great experience getting newborn pictures done with Catherine. She was great with my baby, I did not have to do anything, as soon as I walked in, she took over everything and she definitely knew what she was doing and had everything needed! Loved the all the final pictures! Also, extra thanks bc she worked with me past the usual “time frame” for newborn pics, that I was not aware of. 10/10 recommend.

"Catherine is amazing! We just got our newborn’s photos done recently and we are thoroughly impressed. Catherine returned my inquiry within minutes, and we were able to get in for photos within a couple of days. Her studio is beautiful, welcoming and clean. As a parent, you can relax while she takes care of your newborn, from diaper changes, bottle feeding and soothing, all while taking her gorgeous photos. The timeliness and quality of the edited photos were awesome. Her prices are worth it. We highly recommend!"
