Preemie Newborn session| Richmond, VA| Jacki G. Photography | Family & Newborn session

Newborn photos after a NICU stay call for a few precautions but are definitely possible. A baby’s safety comes first and it’s important to know if there baby has any restrictions on poses or activity , it’s still possible to get beautiful pictures. There are plenty of options! One plus is that parents had plenty of time to observe and handle their babies. They are the experts in their baby’s preferences. Don’t be afraid to tell your photographer what your baby likes and doesn’t like you know them best.

I come to your home for the newborn session. That’s always a plus with babies who are preemies or who have spent some time in the NICU . Staying home means fewer germs to expose them to. I’m always careful to be healthy when photographing babies, and to wash my hands before touching baby and sanitizing equipment after each session.

Little P. was born at 33 wks old and i photographed him when he was 5 wks. He was a great model and loves his tummy time. These are a few sneak peeks from his session.
