  • REASONS TO CHOOSE NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY
    Newborn Portraits will allow your family to continue to cherish and revisit those incredibly beautiful moments for years to come. Imagine going through together with your child looking at a collection of photographs of him or her and telling them about how much you fell in love with them, and together enjoying images of them from their newborn photoshoot and family photoshoot
  • DO I NEED TO BOOK A NEWBORN SESSION EARLY?
    You should contact us at least one month before your due date so we can schedule an appointment and find a right date for you. The newborn is still sleeping and can be moved around and positioned more naturally within the first three weeks of birth, so schedule your session then please. Different poses in the studio are intended to make the baby look sweet and tender. To create these beautiful scenes with your adorable baby, we will use blankets, wraps, hats, and other newborn props.
  • WHAT TO BRING WITH YOU?
    The props Anna offers will enhance your baby's first photography session.Pack plenty of diapers, baby wipes, breast milk or formula if your baby takes a bottle, a dummy, two blankets, along with any other items you would like to include in your baby's photo shoot.In case of accidents, you should also bring an extra change of clothing.
  • WHAT TO EXPECT
    A full-props home studio will be used for the session. Having worked with newborns for many years, Anna Zbrog Photography knows you should always be prepared for the unexpected. It is normal for newborns to poop, pee, and spit up during a newborn photography session, so you do not have to be embarrassed :). It is perfectly normal for a baby to have fussy moments. If possible, please keep your baby awake up to one hour before the session. You will have time to feed and change your baby before the session begins. It may take up to 3 hours to complete your newborn session, as your newborn will require feeding, cuddles, and cleaning throughout the session. Be prepared to sweat a bit as the home studio will be heated to a higher temperature than usual. Parents and siblings can be included in newborn poses, but choose solid (pastel) colors, white is always a winner, and coordinated clothes, but don't have everyone match. To make sure the baby shines in every photograph, avoid clothing that will detract from the star of the show. Patterns, cartoon characters, numbers, letters, and logos should be avoided. A strapless or bandeau top would be ideal for a skin-to-skin photo with the baby.
  • WHEN SHOULD I SCHEDULE IT?
    Your newborn session should be scheduled as soon as possible after your baby is born. Usually after a 20-week scan. Newborn images are best captured when the baby is sleepy and easy to pose within three weeks after birth.
  • IS IT NECESSARY FOR THE BABY TO WEAR CERTAIN CLOTHES?
    It's best to photograph your newborn naked, wrapped in soft blankets, dressed in special newborn photo clothes, and posed with cute props, unless you have a favorite outfit that's important to you.
  • IS IT OKAY IF THE BABY SLEEPS MOST OF THE TIME?
    Yes, of course. Babies who are sleepy and snuggly are my favorite. Sleeping babies are very easy to pose in adorable ways.
  • SHOULD BABY SIBLINGS ATTEND THE PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION?
    Yes, absolutely! This is a priceless treasure that will remain in your family for many years to come. Family portraits are usually taken at the beginning of the session. There will be siblings photographs following, so the baby will be with brothers and/or sisters. Once we have finished with those, I will suggest dad take older children out for a walk/shopping/bring them home or to grandparents, as the length of the session, high temperature is not the best place for children to stay patient. ​
  • HOW SAFE IS FOR A BABY TO WEAR CLOTHES AFTER OTHER BABIES?
    It's absolutely safe! A priority should always be placed on hygiene. The items that are worn by baby for even a few minutes will be washed or disinfected, and any items that will come into contact with their skin will also be disinfected. Studio floors are always disinfected after each session. The highest level of cleanliness and hygiene is maintained.
  • WHAT IF OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS WISH TO OBSERVE THE SESSION?
    Due to several reasons, I prefer only the parents to attend the newborn photography session. Feeding, changing, and calming a fussy baby are part of the newborn session, which is longer than standard sessions. In light of space limitations, only close family members, such as parents and siblings, will be allowed. If you wish to bring another relative, for instance a grandma, please discuss it prior to the session.
  • I HAVE A BABY WITH BAD SKIN (BABY RASH, SPOTS, ACNE, ETC.).
    All this is no problem as it will all be corrected in post-processing. As we all know, newborns do not have the most perfect skin. ​
  • AFTER YOUR PHOTO SESSION, WHAT WILL BE THE NEXT STEP?
    After the photo session, I will check the photos and create photo galleries for you within 7 days. You will have access to a gallery of unedited photography, from which you can make your selection. Once I receive your selected images, the photos will be ready in 4-6 weeks.
