4 weeks old..... {Durham Region Newborn Photographer}

I cannot tell a lie: it is very difficult to get 'newborn' photos of a 4 week old. Many photographers won't even consider having a newborn session with this old of a baby. The ideal time really is between day 5-10, definitely no more than two weeks. Even at that young of an age it can still be a challenge and I have had newborn sessions last well past 3 hours. This is why many photographers stress the point of booking your session while you are still pregnant...this is not a sales ploy :) we happen to know the reality of the work involved in getting those gorgeous sleepy, curled up newborn shots, and the earlier the better.
Now all that being said, sometimes it is not possible to come early. It happens. And that's ok. You just have to understand that it may be twice as challenging to get the shots you want...but hey - I love a challenge, so when {S}'s mom called me and told me her baby was already 4 weeks, I explained the situation and said if you are game, then so am I. {S} did make us work extra hard, wanted to stay awake for most of the session...but with a little patience and determination we were able to get some sleepy shots :)
