FAQ
View some of our frequently asked questions below and get in touch with any questions.
Do you provide props?
Yes, I bring a range of props with me, including blankets of different colours, a white rug, positioning cushions, a rope basket and lighting.
However, if you have particular props in mind you will need to provide these yourself, as well as provide the outfits and swaddles for your baby to wear.
Please discuss your ideas with me and share a Pinterest board of your ideas so we can create a plan for bringing them to life!
When is the best time to book a newborn photoshoot?
Within two weeks of your baby being born is the ideal time for a newborn photoshoot. This is because your baby will sleep more often, and they are more flexible for swaddled poses.
When you know your due date, book your photoshoot for the next week or two after that. Then get in touch with me when your baby is born and we will adjust the booking if needed, by either bringing it forward or pushing it back.
Since your baby will arrive when they want to, we must be flexible. Therefore, all newborn bookings are pencilled in until you confirm.
My baby is older than 2 weeks, can I still book a newborn photoshoot?
Yes! But the poses we do may need to be different. As your baby grows they will get stronger and they will not be as flexible for safe posing, therefore, we may be unable to get the typical swaddled newborn poses, instead capturing more lifestyle photos.
"We were so impressed with Janelle's work when photographing our newborn. She was so accommodating with our daughter and provided all the photos promptly. It is value for money and great high quality photos! Thanks again Janelle!"
- Krishnie Mathuranthakan, Newborn photography client
"We used Janelle for our newborn photos when our daughter was 8 days old and we couldn't have been happier with the photos. She was very accommodating (since newborns can be quite grizzly and also require feeding etc during the shoot) and she did so well using what we had around the house for in the photos. We also loved that we didn't have to choose what few photos we wanted and that for the price paid we got all photos from the shoot, this was a huge factor amongst others for us when choosing Janelle. Highly recommend and would happily use Janelle again for future photoshoots."
- Amy F, Newborn photography client
