Frequently Asked Questions About Newborn Photography
When is the best time for newborn photos?
The best time for newborn photos is when the baby is 6–17 days old. During this period, newborns sleep deeply and curl naturally into womb-like poses, making it easier to capture those classic newborn images. This flexible window accounts for the unpredictable nature of early days with a baby.
You may hear 5-14 days old is best but I prefer to be more flexible to allow for the surprises that can come along with a new baby. Don’t stress if my stated timing doesn’t work out perfectly. I completely understand that every birth story is different.
Had a C-section? Baby spent time in the NICU? You’re still in that foggy, tender, unforgettable chaos of the early days?
You are not alone and you didn’t miss your chance.
I welcome preemies, post-jaundice babies, and those last-minute “I forgot to book” sessions with open arms.
We’ll make it work in a way that’s safe and comfortable regardless of circumstances.
Where do Boca Raton area newborn sessions take place?
Newborn sessions take place either in my Coral Springs home studio or in your own home for a relaxed, lifestyle-style session.
When you arrive to my studio for your session, you’ll step into a quiet, inviting space designed with both comfort and creativity in mind. My cozy home studio has a dedicated private entrance, so you can come and go with ease. No navigating big buildings or searching for parking.
Inside, you’ll find a comfortable space where you can relax, sip a coffee, and take a breather while I work my magic with your little one. The environment is intentionally calm and soothing.
My goal? To keep baby cozy and happy while we capture those fleeting newborn moments. I hope you enjoy the cozy touches that help create a peaceful experience for baby (and for you too).
Whether it's your first baby or your fifth, I want every family who walks through my door to feel cared for and at home.
What's included when you book your full service newborn experience?
From wardrobe to artwork design, here’s what’s included when you book your Boca Raton newborn session.
Client Closet
Once your session is booked, contract signed, and retainer paid, the next question I usually get is: "what should we wear?"
I totally get it. Planning outfits for your family can feel overwhelming. But it doesn’t have to be! From early on, I realized that wardrobe styling plays a huge part in creating not just artful, cohesive images but also a more enjoyable and stress-free experience for my clients.
That’s why every client has access to my curated client closet. It’s filled with hand-selected gowns and accessories in a range of sizes and styles for moms to wear during maternity or family sessions, plus an adorable selection of children's clothing up to size 7/8. These pieces are chosen to photograph gracefully and flatter effortlessly, so you can feel confident, radiant, and completely at ease.
And for an even bigger selection I subscribe to an amazing styling service that helps you pull together a coordinated look. Whether you’re dressing your partner, toddler, or teen. Everything is designed to complement each other seamlessly, no matter what you choose.
From start to finish, I’m here to make the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible and wardrobe is just one of the ways I love to support you.
Newborn and Baby Wear:
I’ve spent years curating a studio filled with luxe, handcrafted pieces made from natural fibers and premium materials with newborn safety always top of mind. Tiny headbands with the perfect tiny bows and flowers, handknitted footie pj's that add to the cozy, curly pose.
I have a studio filled with all these perfect details. Many of these items are handmade by small businesses that share the same love for their craft as I do for capturing your baby’s first days.
Investing in quality shows and you’ll see that reflected in every image from your luxury Boca Raton newborn photography session.
Bespoke Heirloom Wall Art Design
If your portraits tend to live on your computer, I’m here to change that!
I offer albums, frames, prints, and custom wall art — and I’ll help you design heirloom pieces tailored to your home, so your memories are artfully displayed, not hidden away.
**A Note about Hair and Makeup:
If you're planning to be in a few photos with your baby (and I truly hope you will!), there's no need to worry about full glam. During this tender and tiresome time, a natural look photographs beautifully.
My focus is always on close-up, connection-filled portraits that highlight the love and newness of this special chapter.

The Newborn Portrait Session Experience
When to Schedule Newborn Pictures
Overwhelmed? I've got you. You show up, I style, swaddle, soothe and photograph. You enjoy!
Planning ahead and clear communication are the secret ingredients to a smooth, stress-free newborn photoshoot. I recommend reaching out during your second trimester.
This gives us plenty of time to chat about your vision, complete any paperwork, and reserve space on my calendar around your due date.
Once baby arrives, all you have to do is let me know. I’ll take care of the rest.
When you arrive at my studio for your newborn photography session, everything is ready and waiting. No need to bring a thing besides your sweet baby. I’ll handle the props, styling, and every cozy detail.
Your only job? Sit back, relax, and enjoy the experience.
Newborn Photoshoot Props & Styling
One of the most-loved parts of a newborn photography session is all the tiny, charming details. The delicate bows, hand-knit bonnets, itty bitty outfits, soft layers, mini beds, bowls, and more.
These thoughtfully chosen pieces add just the right touch of charm and texture to your images.
If you’ve ever wondered, “Where do you find this stuff?” You’re not alone! Most of my collection comes from artisan vendors from all over the world who create heirloom-quality props specifically for professional newborn photographers. Handmade dainty headbands, hand knitted teddy bear loveys for baby to hold, hand knitted wraps made from organic yarns.
Newborn Session Location Options
Figuring out how I wanted to serve my clients took some time and intention.
Did I want a brick-and-mortar studio?
Did I want to photograph only on location?
After exploring a few different paths, I realized that creating a dedicated home studio in Coral Springs was the perfect fit for both my clients and for me.
A few years ago, when it was time to downsize our home, we moved just a couple of miles from Heron Bay in Parkland to Coral Springs. It was the perfect opportunity to design a cozy, studio space right at home.
It has its own entrance and is completely dedicated to my sessions. It's where I photograph sweet, sleepy newborns, those joyful baby milestones, and maternity portraits filled with the excitement of baby coming.
It's my happy place and I think the calm, welcoming vibe of the space helps my clients feel right at home too.
That said, I'm not just a studio photographer. I also love the freedom and creativity that comes with shooting outdoors.
Whether it's a golden hour beach session, a quiet park tucked away from the crowds, or one of my favorite hidden gems most people wouldn’t even think to explore. These are the places where real connection and natural beauty come together.
And for families who want their session to reflect their everyday love and the space where memories are made, I offer in-home sessions, as well.
There's something so meaningful about documenting your family in the place where life truly happens, where your baby's nursery lives, where laughter echoes down the halls, where the walls will tell your story even if you move on someday.
Whether it's at home, in the studio, or somewhere in nature, I'm here to create meaningful family photography that feels true to you.
Heirloom Printed Products
Did you know that studies show children who grow up seeing photos of themselves displayed around the home tend to have higher self-esteem and a stronger sense of belonging?
This really stuck with me when I read about it.
It’s one of the many reasons I believe so deeply in creating tangible, heirloom artwork for your family, not just digital files that live on a screen.
Since starting my Boca Raton newborn photography studio over a decade ago, my mission has always been to help families surround themselves with love through meaningful portraits you can see, touch, treasure and pass down.
From handcrafted albums to museum-quality wall art, every piece is carefully curated with intention from artisans around the world with beauty, legacy, and storytelling in mind.
When your artwork is delivered, I want it to take your breath away and remind your children every day how deeply they are loved.

Newborn Photoshoot Review – Boca Raton area Mom Shares Her Experience
Working with Lara was an exceptional experience—I'd give it a 200 out of 10!
She’s incredibly personable, gentle, and a true expert when it comes to working with newborns. From the moment I stepped into her studio, I felt instantly at ease. It was cozy and relaxing, and I was able to take a nap while Lara worked her magic, capturing countless beautiful moments of my baby in various poses. My little one barely made a sound the entire time! Lara's turnaround time for editing was impressive, and she even came to my home to help me choose the perfect photos. Her pricing is very reasonable, and the final images are simply stunning—memories I'll treasure forever. I’m already looking forward to working with her again in a few months. Thank you so much, Lara!
