What Newborn Photography Poses are a Parent Favorite

As a newborn photographer for many years, I have been able to see what poses are parent favorites. While I have my favorites, parents tend to have specific favorite poses as well. I am going to share with you the top poses parents ask for in a newborn session.

The first pose is called the froggy pose. This pose seems to be the one I get asked for the most. It is such a cute way to see the newborn baby’s face and also see tiny toes. This also tends to be one of the hardest poses to achieve as a newborn photographer. Baby needs to be super sleepy and relaxed for this pose and the newborn photographer needs to be experienced in this pose as well.

Another favorite pose is a sleepy pose with a teddy bear that I do in every newborn photo session unless parents request not to do naked poses. Dads in particular love this pose when they see it while viewing their images with me. It is such a sweet pose to see the baby all cuddled up with a tiny bear.

And finally, a parent favorite would be family poses. Family photos are such an important part of a newborn session because it is the first family photos with your new addition. Everyone tends to love these images the most. Whether it is the sibling photos or the whole family, these are winners for parents!

There are so many different poses that a newborn photographer can capture. While I love so many different poses, I try to always capture my clients favorites for them. To see more newborn poses and check out your favorites, visit our newborn page.
