I prefer to photograph newborns at mid-morning when they’re happy and sleepy. Timing is everything and will help a TON with having a successful newborn session. Even if the natural light in the afternoon is better, babies are typically fussier in the afternoon than the morning. (Ever heard of “witching hour?” It’s a real thing and it usually occurs in the late afternoon.)
In my experience, days 7-10 are ideal for newborn sessions. This is when Mom’s milk has time to come in, the baby’s stomach is much larger than it was at birth, and thus can hold more milk for a longer stretch of time. Younger than 7 days old you run the risk of baby waking too often to eat and Mom may still be feeling sore from childbirth or surgery. After day 10, the baby may start to develop baby acne and is less “moldable” for those posed images.
