This sleeping beauty was a month old when she came to visit me. It’s always unfortunate when I see or hear about other photographers not taking newborns after 14 days old. Yes, newborns are more sleepy in the first 2 weeks, but this baby definitely proved that wrong! She slept the entire time and was a dream to photograph. She only woke up when the session was over, which is when I like to get photos of baby doing their own thing and being them. Plus, look at that sweet dimple on her chin! I have photographed several older newborns and never turn away a family looking for photos of their baby because they didn’t schedule an appointment when they were pregnant or within the first couple of days after their new bundle arrived. Don’t let the idea of newborns need to be photographed before a certain age, because I would gladly take all the babies!
