Do You Regret Not Doing Newborn Photos?

Are you regretting not doing a newborn photo shoot?

Newborn Photography is Time Sensitive

"Man... my biggest regret or shall I say, mom guilt was not getting any newborn photos taken professionally for my son. I mean, I do have photos of him on my phone but the first 2 months were a total blur and the ones I do have to look back on aren’t that great. Now he’s 3 months and I get so emotional thinking I should have done this, should have done that... It doesn’t help seeing all these people on IG get them for their little ones. Anyone else on the same boat" (reddit)

It's completely natural to feel regret or "mom guilt" about not getting professional newborn photos taken for your little one. You're definitely not alone in this, and many parents share the same sentiments.

As one of Los Angeles best newborn photographers, I can tell you feeling this way is common, but remember, it's never too late to capture beautiful moments with your baby. Book a photo shoot now, while your baby is still small enough to capture those adorable smiles and new milestones. These photos will become cherished memories that you'll treasure for years to come. And if a professional shoot isn't an option, don't underestimate the value of everyday photos and videos you take yourself, they tell the authentic story of your baby's early days.

When is The Best Time for Newborn Photography?

At Maxine Evans Photography, I prefer to photograph newborns between 5-10 days old, capturing that precious stage when they are still in their super sleepy, squishy, and curly state. This period is also ideal before baby acne typically sets in. While I can certainly photograph older newborns, the optimal time is within the first 10 days. 

While this is the optimal window, I'm more than happy to photograph babies a bit older as well. Just remember, the first 2 weeks is golden for those dreamy, curled-up poses. (read more)

The Beauty of Newborn Photos

Newborn photography is a beautiful and significant way to capture the earliest moments of a baby's life, preserving memories that families can cherish forever. The importance of newborn baby photography extends beyond just creating adorable pictures; it encapsulates a range of emotional, sentimental, and even historical values.

In my Los Angeles newborn photography studio (located in Agoura Hills), my focus is on crafting timeless and authentic newborn portraits in a natural and relaxed setting. I believe that the essence of the session should always revolve around your baby, which is why I prefer to use a combination of neutral tones and soft pastel colors. This approach ensures that your images remain timeless and won't look outdated in the months or even years to come

Your baby's session will be fully styled according to your color preferences, all you need to do is bring the baby!

For pricing and availability, please don't hesitate to contact the studio. I look forward to creating timeless memories with you and your little one.
