Finding a Newborn Photographer
I remember when I first saw those little pink lines on that test, I was through the roof in disbelief! You start thinking of all the things that you need to get prepared, and you agonize over names, carseats, cribs and the size of your little one at any given week. After a few weeks I starting thinking about my newborn photos. At the time I was not a newborn photographer, and I didn’t know much about it ! I did know that I wanted a newborn photographer near me, I didn’t want to travel too far with my newborn. I wanted a newborn photographer, who I trusted, someone friendly, educated and of course with a beautiful portfolio!
When you first start researching your local newborn photographers, its easy to become overwhelmed with the amount people there are available for hire. It’s important to do proper research to make sure your little one is in safe hands, and to make sure you will get the quality newborn images you are dreaming of. A great place to start is local Facebook groups, mom groups, play groups, family and friends! Start asking friends about who they used to photograph their children, and what their experience was like. People are always excited to share images of their adorable new little ones, and would likely be happy to share their gallery from their newborns portrait session. Asking others about their newborn photo experience is a great way to get a behind the scenes view of how photographers conduct their sessions, what their customer service is like, and how a whole gallery looks when it is complete.
