Is newborn photography worth it?

Are newborn photographers worth it? Newborn photography feels expensive… You know what, you’re right, it’s an investment, but one I guarantee you will not regret!

Great photographers are not cheap… but cheap photographers are usually not great! Great photographers have spent years understanding and honing their skills. There aren’t many situations that we haven’t already encountered during a session. We are fully insured and have backups of our backups (of our backups). We take images that delight our clients EVERY TIME. We care deeply about your session and images, from the moment we say hi till the moment we say goodbye.

From the day your baby is born you will consider every interaction they have with great care. This same care should be at the forefront of your decision when booking a photographer. But perhaps for you, it’s not a case of which photographer, but instead should you hire a newborn photographer at all. Perhaps you’re thinking, ‘I could just take my own newborn photographs’. I hate to repeat myself, but it’s an investment, you will never regret!

We have noted the skilled artistry and high levels of care available when booking a quality photographer. Now let’s talk about the tangibles - those once in a lifetime images. I aim to provide families with the most beautiful, meaningful and authentic images they possess. I want clients to feel elated and gushy when they view their images, both now and for the rest of their lives. I take images that transport you back, so you can almost feel how tiny your baby was in your arms; perhaps remember the feel of their little grasps. Yes anyone can photograph a baby. Yet, those photographs will miss the mark. The mark that pulls you back into the moment, that fills you with heart-bursting memory, that allows you to fall in love all over again.

Hiring a newborn photographer, hiring me, is not something you will regret. However, letting the moment pass by, beyond the newborn stage or booking a photographer because they were cheap, will be.

It is an investment and you, your baby, your family are worth it.
