Hi, I'm Neyssa

dog in newborn photos, Seattle newborn photographer,

Your dog is your family. You adopted them, named them, and love them, just like you do your babies. So can you include your dog in newborn photos?

The short answer. Of course.

Being able to include your dog in the photos with your baby is just one of the many benefits of in home newborn photo sessions.

Since we are photographing your family in your own home, it is easy to include your dog. Fido can take time to get used to me in his space. He can join you on the master bed, or he can sit by you on the couch during photos.

We will follow your pets lead to ensure your furriest family member is included in your newborn photos.

Your baby’s safety is most important when having your dog in newborn photos.

Your baby’s safety and comfort is most important during sessions. While she may get her face licked, there is no posing that puts your baby in danger. Everything is done with mom and dad close by.

How will my gallery be affected by including my dog?

Your session will be like a regular in-home newborn photo session that does not include pets. The flow will be relaxed and mama and baby’s needs will be top priority. The difference is that we will also include your dog (or even cat) in a few photos during your session.

I do not cap the number of images you receive. So these photos of your dog with your family could be seen as bonus photos that you will forever cherish.

Just thinking, getting to show your child their first best friend, the family dog was right by her side from the very beginning.
