We had enjoyed purchasing little family time with my 6 month old baby photoshoot. It’s a nice little studio & photographer talks you through what the baby will wear & whatnot. We’re very excited to see the results 🥰🥰 Highly recommend Little Stories Photography Natasha Rahman2025-04-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I did my daughter new born photoshoot and I was really impressed with how Sourav did the photoshoot. He is very professional and understands that every child is different and accommodate things within it. I was really impressed with how all the pictures came so returned again for her first birthday cake smash photoshoot. He again did a great job. Very professional and as being a dad himself he understand you and your child needs very well. Raman Kaur2025-04-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

So many options to choose from to make the photos unique to what you like which I loved. Shubhi was so patient especially when I had to feed baby twice & there was no pressure with how long it took. Would highly recommend! Mems xx2025-04-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cake Smash 10/4/25 - For my daughter’s 1st birthday we decided to do a cake smash & milk bath photography. SOURAV was absolutely amazing, my daughter cries when she sees strangers, so yes she did cry in the beginning however Sourav was very professional & patient, he showed me a couple of photos on the camera & I absolutely love them! Can’t wait to see the results 🥰 Thank you Sourav & Shubi Rachel Lowe2025-04-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had such a wonderful experience with Little Stories Photography! From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at ease. Shubhi was incredibly warm, welcoming, and conversational, which really helped calm my nerves, especially during a photoshoot with a baby! What really stood out was how professional yet personable he was throughout the entire session. He handled my baby with so much care and gentleness, and I truly appreciated how patient and thoughtful he was in every moment. He even took the time to help me choose outfits and colors that would look best in the photos, which made such a difference in the final results. One moment that really touched me was when I needed to breastfeed mid-session. He gave me complete privacy by heading upstairs to catch up on emails, and I found that small gesture so respectful and considerate. The photos turned out absolutely gorgeous. He has such a gift for capturing the perfect shots, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I highly, highly recommend Little Stories Photography to anyone looking for a comfortable, professional, and truly special photography experience of their little ones.

The ideal time for a newborn studio photoshoot is within the first 0-14 days of birth. During this period,
babies are sleepier and more likely to be cooperative for posing.
The duration of the photoshoot will vary based on the package you select, ranging from 40 minutes to
3.5 hours. This variability in time is determined by the specific newborn package you opt for.
Newborns are often photographed in their birthday suits or wrapped in soft, neutral-colored swaddles.
We also have a variety of props and outfits available in the studio. Parents are encouraged to wear
attire in neutral shades or coordinated colors
It's helpful to bring extra diapers, wipes, a pacifier, a few favorite baby blankets, and any sentimental
items you'd like to include in the photos.
Baby safety is our top priority. We have experience handling and posing newborns and take the
necessary precautions to ensure their comfort and well-being throughout the session.
It's completely normal for babies to have fussy moments. We build in extra time for feeding, soothing,
and breaks as needed to ensure a smooth session. Patience is key!
Editing and retouching typically take around 1-2 weeks Or 14 working days max. We'll provide you with a
gallery of high-resolution images that you can choose from.
To ensure a successful session, try to keep your baby awake and lightly fed for an hour or two before
the shoot. This can help them sleep more soundly during the session.
