Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best age for a newborn photography session?

Newborns are most photogenic between 5–14 days old, when they sleep deeply and are naturally curled. We can still capture beautiful images up to 4 weeks. Early booking ensures we have availability during this ideal window at our Luxor studio.

How long does a typical photography session last?

Newborn sessions typically run 2–3 hours to allow time for feeding, comfort, and wardrobe changes. Maternity sessions last 60–90 minutes, while family milestone shoots are 60 minutes. We adjust timing based on your comfort and your child's needs.

Do you offer outdoor milestone shoots in Luxor?

Yes. We specialize in outdoor family photography throughout Luxor, Egypt, using natural light and scenic locations. We schedule shoots during optimal lighting hours and can accommodate various themes and preferences for your milestone moments.

What should we wear for a maternity or family portrait?

We recommend neutral, complementary colors and comfortable clothing. Avoid large logos or bold patterns. For maternity sessions, fitted or flowing fabrics work well. We provide detailed styling guidance when you book to ensure you feel confident and look your best.

How many edited images will I receive?

Image counts vary by session type. Newborn sessions include a selection of edited portraits; maternity and milestone sessions include all professionally edited shots from your booking. We discuss final deliverable details during your consultation.

Can you accommodate a same-day booking?

Same-day availability depends on our current schedule. We recommend booking at least 1–2 weeks in advance to secure your preferred date and time at our Luxor studio. Contact us directly to check availability for urgent requests.

Do you offer prints and albums?

Yes. We offer high-quality prints, framed portraits, and custom albums to preserve your memories. These are available as add-ons to your session. Pricing and options are discussed during your booking consultation.

What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

We require 48 hours notice for cancellations or reschedules. Sessions cancelled with less notice may incur a fee. In case of illness or emergency, we work with you to find a suitable alternate date within a reasonable timeframe.

Are siblings welcome in newborn sessions?

Yes. We recommend siblings attend for a shorter portion of the session to help them feel included. A separate adult supervisor helps keep older siblings comfortable and safe while we photograph the newborn. This makes for beautiful family memories.
