What do you call a baby photographer? Most often, they’re known as newborn photographers — specialists trained to safely photograph babies in their first weeks of life. In this guide, we explain the difference between baby photographers, lifestyle photographers, and newborn specialists so you can confidently choose the right fit for your growing family.

This sweet Aurora newborn session brought together Beauty & the Beast magic, handmade fairy wings, butterflies, and heartfelt family moments. Baby sister’s photos blend soft girly tones, custom props, and the cutest big brother helper. A dreamy session with one of my favorite forever families.
