What actually happens during a newborn session?

Whether you’re thinking about booking a newborn session or already have a date on the books, I'm sure you’re a bit curious about what, exactly, goes on during a newborn session.

How long does a newborn session take

Newborn sessions can last between sometimes longer if the baby is a light sleeper, very alert or hungry! I always allow time for extra cuddles and feeds.
