For parents who want just a few beautiful newborn photos, Simple Newborn Mini Sessions are designed to capture your baby’s earliest days in a quick, relaxed session.

These shorter sessions focus entirely on your newborn, wrapped comfortably and photographed in simple, timeless setups. By keeping the session streamlined, we can capture sweet portraits while keeping baby cozy and content.

If you’re looking for a handful of meaningful images without a full newborn session, this option may be the perfect fit.

What Is a Simple Newborn Mini Session?

A Simple Newborn Mini Session is a 30-minute studio session focused on baby alone. Your newborn remains comfortably swaddled while I photograph them in two softly styled setups.

Because baby stays wrapped and the session flow is simplified, we can create beautiful images in a shorter timeframe while keeping the experience calm for both baby and parents.

These sessions are perfect for families who want a small collection of newborn portraits without committing to a full session.

What’s Included

Each session includes:

• 30 minute studio session
• Baby only (no parent or sibling photos)
• Baby photographed swaddle wrapped
• 2 simple prop setups
• 5 professionally edited digital images

Additional images may be available for purchase after your gallery is delivered.

If you’re hoping for family or sibling portraits or more variety in your gallery, you may prefer a full newborn session. You can view more of that experience here.

When Should Newborn Photos Be Taken?

Newborn photos are typically taken within the first 2–3 weeks after baby arrives while babies are still naturally sleepy and curled up.

Because these mini sessions are limited each month, many parents reach out while they are still pregnant so they can plan ahead.

Limited Monthly Availability

To keep my calendar flexible for full newborn sessions, I offer only four Simple Newborn Mini Sessions each month.

These sessions tend to fill quickly, especially during busy baby months.

A Calm, Baby-Led Experience

Even though these sessions are shorter, they are still designed to be calm and baby-focused.

Baby remains comfortably swaddled throughout the session and I gently guide the posing to create soft, natural portraits.

The goal is a simple, stress-free experience that still results in beautiful newborn images.
