Newborn Mini Sessions

These newborn mini sessions are for those newborns that are past the 'ideal' under 2 week age or for those that don't want the long sessions and props.

For newborns from 5 days to 6 weeks of age.

I also offer sessions for babies older than 3 months, click here.

So what are the differences between a normal newborn session and a newborn mini other than price?

 

During my regular full newborn sessions we have the luxury of time to create many different set-ups and ideas, using various different props and blanket colours. Also we have the time to feed and settle baby and wait for that deep sleep to achieve lots of those curly sleeping images.

A mini session will last up to 1 hour. During the 1 hour, I will photograph 5 specific sets with a few variations of each of the set-ups.

During a one hour mini session, the photos may be sleepy images, or they could be all totally awake images. We will photograph what your baby is doing in that time. Of course, if baby is very unsettled, we’ll wait until they are calm again, I’m not strict on clock watching!

The images are set and will be the same for each newborn mini session. 

These minis will not differ from the set of 5 advertised sets below, however you can also add a headband or bonnet of your choice to some of these shots and switch parent posing around. I will also change angles to add more variations.

If your baby is older than 4/5 weeks and/or awake during the white blanket portion, we may not be able to wrap them up in the white wrap and keep their legs folded to cover the nappy so a white vest (vest of your choice) may be needed for these, alternatively we can drape a white wrap over their nappy.

 

The five sets are:

  • Parent portrait with a dark background. 

  •  Black and white portrait of baby in arms.

  • Colour head and shoulders portrait of baby wrapped - Your choice of colour.

  • 2 Variations of baby in white vest or semi-wrapped on white.

 If there is a sibling, one of the above can be swapped for the sibling shot. 

This is the perfect session for those of you that have missed the true 'newborn' phase of up to 3 weeks and will be available to babies up to 6 weeks.

Sessions take place Monday to Friday at my studio in Wellington. Newborn mini sessions can start at 10:30am.
