Essential Questions Before You Book Your Atlanta Newborn Session

You are over the moon excited as you are getting ready to welcome your sweet baby into the world! There is so much to do and plan, including finding the perfect photographer to capture this huge life milestone. 

As you embark on the journey of capturing those precious early moments with your newborn, choosing the right photographer is key to ensuring beautiful memories that last a lifetime. Here at Lisa Lefevre Photography in Atlanta, we understand that your time is precious and that you want everything to be just perfect. To help you make the best decision for your family, here are some essential questions before you book your Atlanta Newborn Session.

1. What is your experience with newborn photography?

It’s essential to know if your photographer specializes in newborns. Experience not only ensures stunning photos but also expertise in handling and posing newborns safely.

2. Can I see examples of your previous newborn sessions?

Seeing a photographer’s portfolio allows you to gauge their style and creativity. Look for consistency in quality and ensure their style aligns with your vision for your baby’s photos.

3. How do you ensure the safety and comfort of my baby during the session?

Safety should always be a top priority. Ask about the photographer’s approach to handling newborns, including whether they are trained in newborn posing and CPR.

4. What is included in your newborn photography session?

Clarify what is covered in the sessions offered. Does the photographer only give a certain amount of time or number of edited photos.  Do they assist with providing prints or designing albums. This helps manage expectations and avoid surprises later on.

5. How far in advance should I book my session?

Newborn photographers often have limited availability due to the unpredictable nature of newborn arrivals. For example, we accept only 5-6 due dates per month.  Booking early, after your 20 week appointment, ensures you secure a spot during those precious first weeks.

6. What happens if my baby arrives early or late?

Flexibility is key in newborn photography. Ensure your photographer has policies in place for rescheduling due dates and accommodating early or late arrivals.

7. Can family members be included in the session? How about pets?

If you envision including siblings or parents in the photos, discuss this with your photographer beforehand to plan accordingly.

8. How soon after the session will I receive the edited photos?

Understand the photographer’s turnaround time for delivering edited photos. This varies among photographers and can impact when you can share your beautiful images with family and friends.

9. What safety measures are in place post COVID-19 or other health concerns?

In today’s environment, it’s crucial to ask about hygiene practices and safety protocols during sessions to ensure your family’s well-being.

10. What happens if I need to reschedule or cancel my session?

Life with a newborn can be unpredictable. Knowing the photographer’s policies on rescheduling and cancellations can provide peace of mind.
