We used the hospital photographer.
We may call her back for another shoot. She was great!
All images were around $200

I'm totally new to all this. Does the photographer come to you? And how long after your expected due date do you book for?



Newborn photographers book early. Some come to you, some have studios. I liked going to the studio bc 1-2 weeks after giving birth, my house was in no shape to have someone come with all of their backdrops and props. They usually recommend no more than 10 or 12 days after the baby is born because the younger they are, the easier they are to pose and the more likely they'll be and stay asleep. Sessions are usually around 3-4 hours.



Thanks! I am in Manhattan so would need to find one with a studio fairly nearby...was sort of hoping they would come to me! Good to know.

I was searching around and I see packages for $800.00+!

Are they all around that price ? I have other kids that I'd like to have photos off too, it would be thousands for them Chat Icon

No way. I paid half of that.

ETA: But I also did a lot of research when looking. I could have paid less and gotten more pics but I wanted quality pics that weren't overly photoshopped.

I went with Amy Maxwell because she offered 40 edited photos (more than others I saw) for $350 out of your home.

I wanted Summer Lyn but it just wasn't something we could afford so we ended up using the hospital photographer with Mom365 and they came out so cute! The girls were only a day old so it was really nice to have these pictures.

I love these.

I am not of the newborn posed photos. These to me are what babies look like and how the photos should be!!!!

I didn't know he did newborns! He was my wedding photographer from my 1st marriage.

Thank you! I felt bad about not booking newborn photos with a pro but after I saw how these came out i was so happy with my decision.
