‘ What should I wear to a newborn photo session?’ I am asked this question a lot, which is good because clothing can make a big impact on a photograph.  It really boils down to color, comfort, and material.

What should baby wear to a newborn photo session

Let’s start with the easy one.  You don’t need to worry about bringing any clothing or accessories for your baby’s photoshoot. As a natural photographer, I lightly swaddle baby in a light colored wrap to keep them warm and comfy.  Your little will most likely be swaddled for the whole session.

You are more than welcome to bring any special items or outfits that hold sentimental value or personal significance, otherwise, there’s no need for you to bring any additional clothing or accessories.

What should Dad wear to a newborn photo session

Let’s face it – most Dads are not thrilled about the idea of getting their pictures taken.  So let’s make it easy on them too.  Most men have khakis and a white shirt they can dig out of the closet and will save them from the shopping trip.  If that’s not your husband’s style than I suggest soft, neutral colors – grays, tans, whites with little to no pattern or logos.
