How To Choose And Prepare For Your Watch Me Grow Experience

Welcoming a newborn into the family is a precious occasion filled with moments to cherish. One way to capture the beauty and innocence of your little one is through our Watch Me Grow Photoshoot Experience.

This special package includes two photography sessions, allowing us to record the beautiful journey of pregnancy for expecting parents and capture the sentimental moments of growth and development of their newborn.

We have two options to choose from...

Bump to Baby

Our Bump to Baby Experience celebrates the journey from pregnancy (around 28-34 weeks) to the first weeks of your little one's arrival. This package is often chosen by first-time parents to capture the unique moments of their pregnancy journey and to preserve the precious first moments of their newborn's life.

Newborn to Six Months

Our Newborn to Six Months Experience cherishes the journey from your baby's arrival through to the first six months of their life. This option is often preferred by parents who want to capture the milestones and sweet moments of their newborn's growth and development during the early months.

How To Prepare

Once you've chosen which experience suits you best, let's explore some tips to help you prepare for your Watch Me Grow and create the lasting memories you'll treasure for a lifetime...

1. Schedule Your Photoshoot Early

The ideal time to schedule a newborn photoshoot is within the first three weeks of your baby's life. During this time, newborns are typically sleepier and more cooperative, making it easier to capture those adorable curled-up poses!

2. Plan Your Outfits and Props

Bringing along props and personal items are the perfect way to add a personal touch and personality to your images. Consider the style and theme you want for your photoshoots and plan your outfits and props accordingly.

3. Prepare Your Baby

Help your baby feel comfortable and relaxed during the photoshoot by ensuring they're well-fed and well-rested beforehand. Consider scheduling the photoshoot during a time when your baby is typically most content, such as after a feeding or nap. Bring along any comfort items, such as a favorite blanket or cuddly toy, to help soothe your baby if needed.

4. Create a Comfortable Environment

Dress your baby in comfortable clothing and bring along any essentials they may need, such as nappies, wipes, and extra clothing. Consider bringing along a white noise machine or playing soothing music to help create a calm and relaxing atmosphere.

5. Relax and Enjoy the Experience

Above all, remember to relax and enjoy the experience! Trust your photographer to capture beautiful images of your newborn and focus on creating precious memories with your family. Embrace the natural beauty of your baby, and let your love and joy shine through in the images.
