Do I Need to Bring Anything to My Newborn Photography Session?
The good news is — we provide almost everything you need!
At Always Belle Photography, we supply all wraps, blankets, headbands, hats, and props for your session. Our Melbourne studio is fully equipped to keep your baby cosy, safe, and comfortable throughout the experience.
You really only need to bring:
- Your baby’s nappy bag (nappies, wipes, spare clothes)
- Bottles or expressed milk (if bottle feeding)
- A dummy (even if your baby doesn’t normally take one)
- Any special items you’d like included (optional)
That’s it! Keeping it simple means less stress for you and a smoother, more relaxed session for your baby.
What We Provide for Your Baby’s Photos
Every baby is different, and the early days can be unpredictable. That’s why we keep our schedule light and flexible.
We have an extensive collection of:
- Neutral and pastel wraps, blankets, and layers
- Soft headbands and hats
- Carefully curated studio props like baskets and beds
- A warm, calming environment perfect for newborn sessions
All our setups are designed to keep your newborn snug and comfortable, while achieving beautiful, timeless images.
Can I Bring My Own Outfits or Heirloom Items?
Absolutely! If you have a sentimental outfit, a special toy, a hand-knitted blanket, or any family heirloom you’d like to incorporate, just bring it along.
We’ll happily discuss how to work it into your session in a natural, meaningful way.
