Good newborn photographers in Fairfield County and Westchester book up quickly. There are only so many newborn sessions that can be scheduled in a given month, and the families who reach out early are the ones who get their pick of timing. By the time you're in your third trimester, many photographers, myself included, may have limited availability for your due date window.

Booking early also gives us time to do this properly: get to know each other, talk through your vision, and make sure everything is in place well before your due date arrives.
