Newborn

Two weeks that don't come back.

27 frames·In your home, Austin & around

Newborn sessions run on the baby's clock, not ours. We come to you, we work in whatever light your windows give, and we wait — for the stretch, the yawn, the ten minutes of stillness. Nothing is forced, nothing is propped into a shape a newborn shouldn't hold, and we stay until it happens.

Booking

Due soon? Book loosely — we'll fit around the actual arrival.

Start the conversation

On their schedule.

A newborn session cannot be run to a timetable. We block the whole morning, we feed and change around the pictures rather than the other way round, and nobody is rushed.

At home, first week

Ten minutes of stillness

Wrapped, warm and finally asleep. We never pose a newborn into anything they wouldn't settle into on their own.
