Often times, pets are our first babies. One of the top questions during the booking process is if pets are allowed in the photos. The answer is a resounding yes!
Your four-legged babies will always be welcome and I love including pets into newborn photos at home. Of course, baby’s safety is priority number one, so if your pet isn’t quite adjusted to having a new family member, it might be best to hold off including them.
Take a peek below for one example of including pets into newborn photos at home. Here’s one example with a dog specifically and another because that’s one incredibly cute golden.
