Is Newborn Photography Safe?

At our studio, we photograph 5–7 newborns every single day, from 5-day-olds to 40+ days.

Every movement during the session is intentional: how we hold your baby, how we wrap, how we pose, and how we keep everything clean and comfortable.

Why Newborn Photoshoots Are Safe with the Right Photographer

Only natural, safe newborn poses


We use gentle, natural positions that follow your baby’s natural curves.

No forced poses, no pressure on joints, no complicated setups.

Your baby’s comfort always goes first.

Full head, neck, and airway support


Every pose is monitored carefully:

• head and neck fully supported

• clear, open airway

• zero pressure on the chest

• spine naturally aligned


Your baby is never left unattended — not even for a second.

Strict hygiene and sanitizing system


Every wrap, blanket, outfit, and prop is:

• washed with hypoallergenic detergent

• fully dried

• steamed

• sanitized after each session


This is our non-negotiable standard.

What a Safe Newborn Photographer Must Know

A professional newborn photographer should:


• understand newborn physiology

• recognize early signs of discomfort

• know how to work with babies 5–40 days old

• know which poses are never safe

• work calmly, slowly, and confidently


We also send parents a preparation guide before the session — so your baby arrives calm and ready.

Our Advice

When choosing a newborn photographer, ask just two questions:


1️⃣ How many newborn sessions do you do per week?

(Experience = safety.)


2️⃣ What are your hygiene and safety procedures?


Confident, detailed answers mean you’re in good hands.

The first days of your baby’s life will never happen again — and they deserve to be captured gently, safely, and with love.


Expert Tips From a Newborn Photographer

Here are the professional, experience-based recommendations parents appreciate most:

• The calmer the parent — the calmer the baby

• Bring extra milk — newborns often eat more during sessions

• Do not apply lotions before the session

• Avoid tight socks or clothing that leaves marks

• Keep your home warm before leaving so baby stays relaxed


We will handle:

lighting, safety techniques, posing, props, transitions, soothing, setups, editing — everything.
