What you need to know for a beautiful Newborn photoshoot in Toronto

 1. Should I schedule a Maternity photo session before a newborn photoshoot in Toronto?

For new expecting mothers: The golden period for maternity portraits is between 28-34 weeks of pregnancy. This time frame helps us capture the gorgeous curve of your belly, ensuring you're still comfortable. The time is book at the beginning of your second trimester.

For Newborn babies: You should book your favourite Toronto Newborn Photographer by late second semester to ensure availability.   Your baby is best photographed between 5-14 days old, capturing their fresh newborn features and celebrate their arrival into your family.

We always encourage a maternity portrait session! Why? Because these are moments that baby will want to see - how they were in your belly. These portraits, truly, are often time more for baby. It is such as short 9 months of your life, that it should be documented and it's a time for you to feel stunning with the beautiful pregnancy glow. We also love capturing a Before-And-After portrait.
