10 must have baby outfits for your newborn photography session
Congratulations, your baby is nearly here (or possibly they have already arrived - yay) and your newborn photography session is booked in! Now, just the small matter of what to dress them in…
Hopefully, by now you have read through my handy what to wear guide, which has given you some direction. But, let me help you out a little further. Here are 10 of my favourite newborn outfits available right now, for your winter or spring newborn photography session. All suggestions are footless as baby toes are to die for - seriously it feels criminal to not have them feature in your images!

This last suggestion is a little more specific. This month I photographed a gorgeous little girl, who started her little life premature. Finding that my usual client wardrobe suggestions were just not suitable for her (she was only 5lbs 4oz) I went on the hunt for the ideal premature baby outfit. This is when I stumbled across Little Mouse who specialise in premature baby clothes. Founded by a NICU Nurse they have a fabulous choice of quality brands.
Noppies (Via Little Mouse) -Luxury Ribbed Footless Sleepsuit
This tiny baby sleeps it is designed to fit a baby weighing 4lbs to 7.5 lbs. Beautiful soft ribbed material and copper coloured poppers that go all the way down for easy dressing. Available in Taupe, Sand and Oatmeal.
So which outfit choice will it be? Perhaps more than one has caught your interest? Whichever lucky item makes it’s way into your basket, I just hope you found something or perhaps, something sparked an idea for your amazing new addition’s photoshoot!
