Capture Precious Moments : Photographing older babies

Timeless Photography for Older Babies


While it's generally advised that newborn sessions be held within the first 3 weeks, the beauty of photographing older babies should not be overlooked. Whether you missed the opportunity to capture your little one's early days or simply want to document their growth and personality, photographing older babies can be just as magical and rewarding.


One of the key differences when photographing older babies is their increased alertness. As they reach around 6 weeks old, babies begin to develop greater motor control and awareness of their surroundings. This means that they are less likely to curl up into those traditional newborn poses and more likely to be curious and engaged with the world around them.


This increased alertness gives us the opportunity to capture their beautiful open-eyed expressions. Unlike newborns, older babies tend to be awake for much of their session where we can document their genuine curiosity and stunning gaze.


Photographing older babies provides a wonderful opportunity to document their growth and personality. While it is always ideal to book sessions early, capturing the beauty of older babies is always a beautiful opportunity.
