Newborn photographer's quote came with a mood board. In one picture the baby is dressed as a carrot

We have a one month old who sleeps in short stretches and a message from a newborn photographer my partner's cousin used. Three hours at our place, props included, 'best done before six weeks'. The mood board has babies in baskets, babies in knitted hats, and one baby in a carrot costume. My partner is keen. I'm mostly wondering whether anyone looks at these photos later, or whether the blurry phone ones end up being the ones you keep.

    We didn't do one for either of ours, mainly because the second wouldn't sleep long enough to try. The photos we go back to are the ordinary ones, the elder one holding her sister on the sofa in terrible lighting. If your partner wants it, maybe a shorter session without the props, and see how he takes it.

    did one for my daughter. 3 hours, she slept for maybe 40 minutes of it, and we got exactly one photo i love. it's on her wall and she shows it to every friend who comes over. so worth it for one photo? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ skip the carrot though
