Maybe you’re a family photographer and burnt out by being busy, primarily in the fall season. Or maybe you’re a wedding photographer burnt out by working long days nearly every weekend and editing for what seems like an eternity. If you’re finding yourself saying “Yes, that’s me, Brenna!” then newborn photography may be niche that’s perfect for you! Want to know the good news, friend? It’s never too late to pivot into newborn photography.
Benefits of Newborn Photography
There are so many benefits to specializing in newborn photography that you’ll love! Here are a few of my favorite parts of this niche:
- No more weekends, and choose your own shoot days
- Shorter session times with no more than 8-10 hours on your feet
- Quicker editing times
- Endless upselling opportunities (albums, prints, and baby announcements)
- Work while your kids are in school, daycare, or with family
- No more busy season (babies are born all year long)
