When should I book a Calgary newborn photography session?
I recommend booking your Calgary newborn photography session during your pregnancy, ideally in the third trimester. This ensures I can reserve your due date and plan for the optimal window, typically within the first 5–10 days after birth when babies are easiest to pose safely and comfortably. Early booking also gives you peace of mind and priority scheduling for your newborn session
