Best Newborn Photographers Near Me
& How to find your newborn photographer.
Newborn photography is one of the most special events for brand new parents. You wait for 9 months for your sweet baby to arrive, and then all you want to do is love on them and share your whole heart with the world. But who do you choose when looking for a newborn photographer? I’ve put a little list together for you below…
Newborn Photographers Near Me
To begin, a lot of new moms just Google something like “newborn photographers near me” which is great if you are looking for someone close. But you don’t have to choose the closest photographer to you if you don’t have your heart set on them. Be sure to do your research and look into other options. Some photographers will travel to you for an at home session, also called a “lifestyle session” in the photography world.
Best Photographers
Another good search would be “best newborn photographers.” Photographers included in these links typically have a few years experience, and have been published online based on their credentials, portfolio, and skill. Published photographers should also have a portfolio on their website that you can peek into and see if that’s something you might be interested in.
Houston
More options would be to look for the closest large city to you; like “Houston Newborn Photographers. Most photographers associate their business with the largest metroplex to serve that community.
Texas
Still searching? You can always look for the best in your state, like “Best Texas Newborn Photographers.” But remember, a lot of these searches are really just based on SEO (how google ranks websites based on the amount of content on their website) so these might not really be the best of the best, they just have a really good marketing strategy.
Photography Studio
Also, be sure to see if they have an actual photography studio. I started from home, and now have a studio, but that usually comes with time and isn’t always a deal-breaker. Just make sure they will travel to you, and find out how you see your pictures after your session. Ask how they set-up their ordering appointments as well so that you can choose your favorites to print.
Baby Photographers
And last but not least, you can look up different options like “baby photographers”. Honestly though, I think that one of the best searches is word of mouth, so be sure to text your friend that just had her newborn session, ask moms in your neighborhood, and people that you know for referrals.
Schedule a Call
Once you have found someone that you love, be sure to set up a call! Chatting more on the phone will help with things like planning dates, pricing, locations, artwork, hair and makeup, and all of the details that go into a newborn session.
I’m an open book and am always happy to help!!
