Booking your newborn session is an exciting step in preserving the earliest and most precious moments of your baby’s life. At Little Legacies Studio in Phoenix, we specialize in creating a calm, beautiful environment where your newborn can be captured just as they are—tiny, perfect, and full of love. Understanding what to expect before your session can help ease your mind and ensure a smooth, enjoyable experience for you and your baby.

The Ideal Time for Newborn Photos
We recommend scheduling your newborn session within the first 5 to 14 days after birth. This is when babies are sleepiest and easiest to pose naturally. During this time, we’re able to gently guide them into the curled-up positions that highlight their delicate features and preserve that fleeting newborn stage. If your baby is older, don’t worry—we can still create beautiful images with relaxed, baby-led posing that captures their personality.

What to Bring With You
We have everything you need in the studio: wraps, headbands, bonnets, outfits, and props. However, we do encourage parents to bring a few essentials such as extra diapers, bottles if you’re bottle-feeding, a pacifier, and anything sentimental you may want to include in the photos. Some parents bring a family heirloom, special blanket, or a tiny outfit that holds meaning. We’ll work these items into the session to make it uniquely yours.

The Session Flow
Newborn sessions typically last two to three hours. This allows time for feeding, soothing, and plenty of cuddles in between shots. The studio is kept warm to ensure your baby stays comfortable, especially if we’re doing some of the shoot without clothes. You can relax, sip coffee, and watch the magic happen from our cozy parent seating area. We take our time, following your baby’s lead to make sure the experience is peaceful and never rushed.

Safety Is Always First
Your baby’s safety is our top priority. All posing is gentle and done with your baby’s comfort in mind. We never force poses, and we always ensure your baby is fully supported—either by us or with editing help in post-production. Our studio is sanitized between each session, and we use soft, baby-safe materials in every setup. As parents ourselves, we know how sacred this time is and treat every baby like our own.

Capturing Family Moments
While the session centers on your newborn, we always make time for family portraits. Parents and siblings are welcome and encouraged to be part of the session. These early images of your new family unit are priceless and become treasured memories for years to come. We guide you with gentle posing that feels natural, capturing the emotional connection you share in this new chapter of life.

What Happens After Your Session
After your session, we professionally edit the images to ensure each one meets our high standards. Within two weeks, you’ll receive a private online gallery where you can view and choose your favorites. From there, we offer options for prints, albums, and wall art, all crafted to become heirlooms in your home. We believe these memories deserve to live beyond your phone and bring joy to your everyday life.
