Why Families Choose Light Affair Photography
Timeless Newborn Photography
The tiniest details change so quickly during those first few weeks
Our goal is to preserve these fleeting moments through soft, natural imagery that you’ll treasure for years to come.
When Should You Book Your Newborn Session?
Newborn sessions are ideally booked during pregnancy to secure availability within the first 5–14 days after birth.
This stage is perfect for capturing your baby while they are still sleepy, curled and tiny.
However, older newborn sessions are also absolutely possible and can still create beautiful, meaningful images.
