Why You Should Schedule Your Newborn Session Early

Your pregnancy goes by faster than you think. Before you know it, your baby will be here! I am here to help to save you some stress if you're planning a newborn session. Here is why you should schedule your newborn session early. 

1. Finding the perfect photographer

You want time to be able to do your research and find your perfect newborn photographer. This is a good time to figure out what kind of photos you want, what is your budget, and to get to know your photographer before your shoot. Getting the research done early will also help your photographer be prepared, so they can give your shoot their best work. If you’re going to be spending the money, you will want the best photos and experience you can get. 

2. Don’t want to miss your opportunity

When you have your baby, time goes by so fast. You will have so many other things on your mind and may forget about planning for photos. We like your baby to be about 5-7 days old for their newborn session. If you plan it in your third trimester, that gives you plenty of time to mark it on your calendar.

3. It gives you more planning time

Scheduling your newborn session in your third trimester gives you more time for being prepared. This gives you time to budget… babies can be expensive! You can make sure that during this time, you get exactly what you want.

You can ask any questions to make yourself feel more confident on what you’re about to invest in. This also gives you time to think about a maternity session :) Planning this early will lift so much weight off your shoulder when your little bundle of joy is here!
