Newborn Photo Sessions at Melodi Photography Studio

Hey there, future parents and soon-to-be newborn cuddlers! I’m Ipek, and I’m absolutely thrilled to invite you into the enchanting world of newborn photography at my cozy little corner of creativity – Melodi Photography Studio!

There’s truly nothing quite like the excitement and anticipation of welcoming a new member into the family. And I’d be so honored to help you capture some of the most precious moments of this incredible journey.

I’m here to make this experience as joyful and memorable as possible for you and your little one. I take great pride in my work, pouring my heart and soul into every session to ensure that we capture the true essence of your baby’s personality and the love that surrounds your growing family. My approach is gentle and patient, putting both you and your baby at ease throughout the entire process. I’m here to listen to your ideas, answer any questions you may have, and above all, create a fun and relaxed atmosphere where you can truly enjoy this special moment in time.

Before we dive into the session, we’ll sit down and chat about your vision and preferences. Whether you’re dreaming of whimsical poses or cozy cuddles, I’m here to bring your ideas to life in the most magical way possible.

Studio has soft lighting, comfy blankets, and a sprinkle of fairy dust (okay, maybe not literal fairy dust, but close enough!) set the stage for creating breathtaking portraits of your little munchkin.

One of the hallmarks of a newborn session at Melodi Photography Studio is the emphasis on capturing the bond between parents and their little one. Whether it’s a tender embrace, a loving gaze, or a gentle kiss on the forehead, these intimate moments are beautifully preserved, serving as a timeless reminder of the love that surrounds your growing family.

I wholeheartedly believe that newborn photography isn’t just about snapping pictures. It’s about freezing some of those fleeting moments in time – for example, the way your baby curls up and sleeps in your arms.

If you’re ready to embark on this magical journey of capturing memories that will make your heart skip a beat every time you glance at them, then I’d be so happy to be your photographer.

Let’s create something truly special together at Melodi Photography Studio!

Awake Babies in Newborn Sessions – What to Expect and How I Make It Work? 👶🏼

When you picture a newborn photography session, you probably imagine those peaceful, curled-up poses of a sleeping baby. 💤 While that’s often the goal, every baby is different, and sometimes, they decide they’d rather stay awake and take in the world instead. If that happens during your session—don’t worry! It’s completely normal, and we embrace it. 🥰

Why Do Babies Stay Awake?

Newborns sleep a lot, but they also have their own little personalities and unpredictable sleep patterns. Some babies are naturally more alert, while others might be going through a growth spurt or adjusting to new surroundings. Sometimes, they just want to see what’s going on! 🤓

What Happens if My Baby Won’t Sleep?

A wide-awake baby doesn’t mean we won’t get beautiful photos. In fact, some of the most captivating images come from babies with their eyes wide open! I take a flexible approach, adjusting our posing and wrapping techniques to ensure both comfort and beautiful results. 🤍

Here’s what we do when babies stay awake:
✔ Capture Eye Contact & Expressions – Those bright, curious eyes and tiny expressions are priceless! I  take advantage of this time to capture adorable awake shots.
✔ Use Wrapping Techniques – Babies love to feel snug and secure. Wrapping helps calm them and often leads to them drifting off to sleep naturally.
✔ Go with Natural Poses – Instead of forcing sleepy poses,  I let the baby’s natural movements guide me, capturing sweet stretches, yawns, and tiny fingers reaching out.
✔ Pause for Feeding & Comforting – If a baby is unsettled, we take breaks to allow for feeding, cuddling, and soothing. A full belly and cozy warmth often help babies fall asleep.

But What About Sleepy Poses?

Most babies will eventually doze off. Even if your baby stays awake longer than expected, you’ll still walk away with a gallery of stunning images that reflect their unique little personality. 💕
