Sessions
Newborn session, the optimal age to photograph a newborn is between 6 to 9 days, when we can most easily achieve the sleepy, curled poses you see in our portfolio. Some babies remain wonderfully cooperative at 12 to 14 days, especially once feeding routines are more established.
A typical newborn session lasts two to three hours, allowing plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and cuddles. Some babies need a little extra settling—and that’s perfectly okay. They’re far too adorable not to be forgiven.
Cherubfoto accepts a limited number of newborn and family sessions each month to ensure every family receives a calm, unhurried and personalised experience.
For all other sessions, our team will be in touch with everything you need to know—no guesswork required. Most sessions run for about an hour, which just happens to be the sweet spot (especially for little ones with wonderfully short attention spans). Long enough to capture beautiful moments, short enough to keep everyone happy.

A Thoughtfully Guided Experience
01.
Your Session Experience
All sessions take place in our boutique lifestyle studio, designed to be clean, cosy, and welcoming for both babies and parents. We’ve thoughtfully equipped the space with essentials to keep everyone comfortable—just remember to bring your baby’s diapers and milk.
For other sessions—such as milestone sitters, cake smashes, family photoshoots, and maternity—our team will be in touch with all the details you need. Most sessions are designed to be relaxed, fun, and just the right length to keep everyone smiling.

Styling Your Session
Planning Before Your Shoot
What you wear sets the mood for your photos—yes, outfits matter! As you plan your colour palette, think about where these images might live one day. Soft, timeless tones that complement your home’s interiors always photograph beautifully (and never go out of style).
If the whole family’s joining in, we recommend coordinating colours rather than matching exactly. Harmonious tones keep everything looking cohesive and polished—while the real stars remain your family and those lovely connections.
We’ll schedule a call before the shoot to chat through ideas and thoughtfully curate a session that’s perfectly you

Calm Sessions, Timeless Results
Our sessions are designed to move at just the right pace—slow enough for real moments, quick enough for happy little ones. Photographing children, however, takes a special kind of experience. It’s about reading their body language, spotting subtle cues, and understanding each little personality. Every baby is unique, and trust us—we’ve seen them all! From the calm observers to the unstoppable explorers, we know how to handle every character with ease and patience.
The result? A smooth, stress-free session that captures moments that feel effortless, authentic, and truly lasting.

We provide everything needed for the shoot—including props, wraps, outfits, bonnets, tiebacks, blankets, layers, and professional photography equipment. Each selected image also receives thoughtful artistic enhancement and professional retouching during post-production.
FAQ
This is my first photoshoot, what should I know?
Your baby’s comfort and safety come first. Newborn sessions are slow, gentle, and baby-led, with time for feeding, soothing, and cuddles. Expect a calm, warm environment and simple, soft styling to keep the focus on your baby’s tiny details and natural expressions.
Feed your baby just before the session so they are sleepy and relaxed. Bring extra milk, diapers, wipes, and a pacifier if you use one. Dress baby in loose clothing to avoid marks on the skin.
Relax and trust the process. Some poses may take time, and that’s completely normal. Your photographer will guide you, handle your baby safely, and capture beautiful, timeless memories of this precious stage.
What should I wear?
Choose soft, neutral and earthy tones that never go out of style: cream, beige, ivory, soft grey, camel, sage, dusty blue, and warm browns. These colours photograph beautifully and keep the focus on your family’s connection, not on trends.
Keep patterns minimal. Solid colours, subtle textures, and gentle layering create an elegant and cohesive look. Avoid bold prints, logos, neon colours, or heavy graphics as they can distract and date your photos.
Coordinate, don’t match. Aim for a harmonious colour palette rather than identical outfits. Mix light and dark tones within the same colour family for depth and balance.
Choose comfortable, well-fitted clothing. Flowing fabrics, knits, linen, and cotton add softness and movement. For mums, dresses with gentle drape are especially flattering. For dads, neutral shirts with chinos or soft trousers work well. For children, simple outfits with natural textures look timeless.
Go barefoot or wear neutral shoes. Bare feet feel natural and intimate. If wearing shoes, choose simple styles in beige, brown, or white.
Keep accessories simple. Delicate jewelry, soft hair styling, and natural makeup complete the look without overpowering it.
Above all, wear something that feels like you. When you feel comfortable and confident, your photos will reflect genuine warmth and connection.
How many pictures will I receive?
The number of images you receive depends on the package you choose. Each package includes a curated selection of professionally edited, high-resolution photographs. Higher-tier packages include more images and additional products or upgrades.
Your photographer will carefully select the best moments from your session to ensure quality over quantity, so every image you receive is timeless, meaningful, and beautifully finished.
When should I book?
Reserve during your second or third trimester to secure your preferred date.
When is the best time?
5–10 days old is ideal—babies are sleepier, curl naturally, and pose easily.
Is it safe?
Absolutely. Sessions are baby-led, gentle, and never rushed.
What if my baby is older than two weeks?
No problem! Sessions focus on wrapped, natural, and lifestyle-inspired shots.
What if my baby arrives early or late?
Timing is flexible—just reach out after birth.
Premature or smaller babies?
For safety and comfort, we recommend newborn sessions for babies who are around 2.3 kg (5 lbs) or above. Babies below this weight may need extra time to grow and gain strength before a photoshoot, but we can always discuss a personalized plan to capture those early moments safely.
In-Home Newborn & Family Photography?
Yes, we offer photoshoots in the comfort of your own home. Selected props and styling items will be brought along to create a beautifully styled session. A pre-discussion is required to understand your space, lighting, and preferred style, followed by a complimentary 15-minute consultation call to plan the details together.
Please note that some props are studio-exclusive due to their large and bulky size, but we will always ensure your home session is thoughtfully styled and just as timeless and meaningful.
Photoshoot Guide
Once you confirm your session with us, a private photoshoot guide will be sent your way. It’s packed with essential tips and insights drawn from our years of experience with hundreds of babies—everything you need to make the day smooth, stress-free, and perfectly picture-worthy. Consider it your newborn photography playbook.
