My preference is to have this session when mama is 30-34 weeks pregnant, when she’s rocking a baby bump and still feeling well enough to do a photoshoot.
Book by the end of your 2nd trimester. We try and photograph 10-14 days after baby is born, when they are still nice and sleepy. Newborn photos can be done later but will look a little different.
Book when your little one can sit up unassisted.
Book a date 3 months before their birthday.
Take these sooner than you think. For high school seniors who want their portraits in “regular” outfits and not waiting for their cap & gown, I would suggest booking sessions a minimum of 3-6 months BEFORE graduation; most sessions are during the spring before graduation. Some high school seniors have their sessions at the beginning of their senior year.
May & June is reserved for cap & gown sessions (most often college grads).
Best to book a date at least 4 weeks before you need photos.
