A few of the most common questions answered...
When should we arrange a sitter session?
For the best sitter session type baby portraits, we recommend arranging your photo shoot for when baby is around 6 to 9 months old. More specifically, the best sitter portraits take place when baby is able to sit up unaided, but ideally before he or she is able to crawl.
How long will my baby portraits take?
All our baby portrait sessions are kept relatively short, because we know all babies have a relatively short attention span. Most baby portraits take up to one hour at most.
Can we include a few parent shots?
Yes, this is no problem - we're happy to include a few family portraits if you'd like to.
Do I need to bring props or anything special?
Our sitter portraits are kept relatively simple, but we do use a few props on occasion. If you have a particular prop or toy you would like to bring, that's no problem - but there's no need unless you want to.
What about clothing?
We recommend bringing a selection of outfits you love for your baby... keeping in mind the color scheme of any background set you choose. This means we'll have a few options to choose from during your session. We'll send you more advice about this after your booking is confirmed - and we also have a small selection of outfits in the studio, too.
How many portraits will I get?
We shoot plenty of images during the session and edit the very best ones to show you. Our collections include sets of 5, 10 or ALL (min25+) images, and can include both prints and digital copies, or just digital images on their own.
Our sitter portraits are perfect for all babies who are able to sit up on their own - and ideally are not yet able to crawl away quickly!
If your baby is already on the move it's still possible to get some beautiful baby portraits for you - we may just need to work a bit harder, and ask for your help in popping your little one back in the right spot of the studio for us!
Our baby portrait photoshoots are lots of fun - a bit chaotic, somewhat unpredictable, and sometimes a little challenging... but always fun, and resulting in a set of beautiful baby portraits that we know you will love.
