Essential Tips for a Safe Newborn Photoshoot in Chennai
Essential Tips for a Safe Newborn Photoshoot in Chennai
A newborn photoshoot is a beautiful way to capture your baby’s earliest moments. These tiny fingers, sleepy yawns, and soft smiles are memories every parent wants to hold onto forever. But more than anything, safety should always come first during a newborn shoot.
At Kiyo Shotz, we know how precious your newborn is. That’s why we focus on creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for both baby and parents. If you’re planning your newborn shoot in Chennai, this guide shares essential tips to make the experience smooth and safe.
1. Choose a Trusted and Experienced Photographer
Not every photographer is trained to handle newborns. Choose a studio that specializes in newborn photography. At Kiyo Shotz, our team has years of experience working with babies and understands the care and patience required.
What to look for:
Experience in handling newborns
Knowledge of safe posing techniques
Clean and baby-friendly studio space
Positive reviews from other parents
2. Keep the Photoshoot Environment Clean
Hygiene is extremely important during a newborn shoot. Babies have delicate immune systems, so the studio should be properly sanitized before and after each session.
At Kiyo Shotz, we:
Sanitize all props, wraps, and surfaces
Use freshly washed blankets and outfits
Maintain a clean and dust-free studio
Wash our hands before every session
If you prefer, we also offer at-home newborn photography in Chennai, where your baby stays in their familiar, clean space.
3. Always Prioritize Your Baby’s Comfort
Your baby’s comfort matters more than any photo. That’s why we recommend:
Feeding your baby before the session to keep them calm and sleepy
Using soft, skin-friendly fabrics for wrapping and props
Keeping the room warm so your baby doesn’t feel cold
Allowing breaks whenever the baby needs to rest or be fed
We create a peaceful, soothing setup in our studio to help your newborn feel safe and cozy throughout the session.
4. Use Safe and Gentle Posing Techniques
Some popular newborn photo poses may look simple, but they require careful handling. Not every pose is safe for every baby. At Kiyo Shotz, we never force poses and always support your baby’s head and body with the utmost care.
Our safe posing approach includes:
Never using hard or sharp props
Keeping hands close for support (sometimes edited out later)
Following your baby’s natural flexibility and comfort
Respecting your baby’s mood and reactions
5. Choose the Right Time for the Shoot
The ideal time for a newborn photoshoot is between 5 to 15 days after birth. At this age, babies tend to sleep more and are easier to pose. Their bodies are naturally curled, which allows for those sweet, sleepy images.
However, every baby is different. If your baby is a little older, don’t worry—we can still capture beautiful moments with safe, simple poses.
6. Avoid Overcrowding the Studio
Too many people can disturb the baby and make the space warm or noisy. It’s best to keep the number of people in the studio to a minimum. Usually, only the parents and the photographer should be present.
At Kiyo Shotz, we offer a private, calm setting so your newborn feels safe and undisturbed during the session.
7. Keep Emergency Items Ready
While we take every safety precaution, it’s always good to be prepared. Here are a few items we recommend bringing:
Diapers and wipes
Extra milk or formula
A change of clothes for the baby (and parents, just in case!)
Baby blanket or favorite toy
Burp cloth or towel
8. Be Patient – Let Your Baby Lead
Sometimes babies cry, sleep longer than expected, or need frequent feeding. And that’s completely okay. A safe newborn photoshoot is not rushed. At Kiyo Shotz, we allow plenty of time, so your baby is never forced or hurried.
We work at your baby’s pace—with full patience and care.
9. Communicate with Your Photographer
Before the session, share important details like:
Your baby’s feeding and sleeping patterns
Any health or medical concerns
Poses you prefer or want to avoid
Themes or colors you love
This helps us plan the shoot better and ensures your baby’s safety and comfort throughout.
10. Avoid Loud Music or Bright Lights
We keep lighting soft and natural. No harsh flashes or loud distractions. Gentle background music may be used if it helps soothe the baby. Our Chennai studio is designed with newborns in mind—peaceful, private, and softly lit.
Final Thoughts
Safety is the heart of every newborn photoshoot. While the cute poses and beautiful props matter, your baby’s well-being comes first. By choosing a studio that prioritizes cleanliness, comfort, and care, you’ll not only get lovely photos—you’ll also enjoy the process.
At Kiyo Shotz, we’re proud to be one of the most trusted newborn photography studios in Chennai. Our passion is capturing your baby’s earliest memories with warmth, creativity, and love—always safely.

what our clients have to say
"A young, energetic and full of life couple. One of the most down to earth and sweetest people i have met. Durgesh’s ideas and editing is fantastic. Being on a shoot with this couple is something that everyone must experince. They just make u feel at home and behave like they have known us for a long time. Nithya was always available to happily answer all the queries and was open to any kind of suggestion. Its a big thumbs up for kiyo shotz and i hope and pray that durgesh grows and becomes a big name in the field of photography, for his simplicity, passion and dedication is commendable."
"There are only few people who can grab your thoughts and present it wisely! The one are Durgesh and Nithya together! I just went to them with a single theme ‘Winter’ for my Son, but they have given us the output to cherish lifetime. Such a professional, talented, skill full, look-alike and what not? Just brilliant couple. The way they handle the toddlers are ever loving and thus they are able to grab few important moments in hawk eyes! Was completely satisfied and overwhelmed with both Indoor and Outdoor Photo Shoots. It was perfect the way i would expect. Been in Cine Industry for quite sometime, i would say that they are excellent than all others I have seen till now! Little worried that i didn’t get the contact before I marry else I would have received a greater emotional memory to call it as Album rather the one I have right now. 10/10! Perfect and simply incredible. Good job people, you are rocking and wish your future endeavors! At anytime, I would only love to work with you."

"Firstly, I would like to thank the beautiful couple for clicking the best pictures of my son and our little family. As everyone knows, shooting with a 2 year old toddler is no easy but they made sure my child was comfortable with them as soon they started the shoot. In fact, when the shoot got over, my son started asking about their absence.Well, coming to the experience, it was so cool with proper outdoor props, very professional and they get creative with whatever is available as well. Overall, it would be a big thumbs up to all of them who want to get great pictures clicked. Thanks to Nithya and Durgesh for making the shoot, so feel at home for the three of us.

Loved working with them and will always be our go to for any shoots in future.
We went in for a maternity shoot for me and my husband and we are so glad we chose Kiyoshotz. Nithya's pleasant demeanor made us feel at ease. And the Mua and hairstylist arranged by her did such a good job as well. Right from draping my outfit, to directing my poses, to the way the photographs were taken by Durgesh... it was such an enjoyable experience. They made me feel very comfortable and always checked if I was doing okay. They made me and my husband comfortable in front of the camera with their encouraging and friendly words and simple guidance on how to pose. Thank you Kiyoshotz for helping create this memorable experience that is now a part of my pregnancy :)PS: Durgesh's nostalgic playlist in the background made it all the more enjoyable!
We had a good experience with Kiyoshotz who made our day very special. I personally recommend Nithya and team as they are very friendly, passionate, calm and doing things neatly. I appreciate the patience and skill. That was our first photoshoot experience but never looked like one as we were very much comfortable.
Kiyoshotz made our day very special. We chose kiyoshotz for our maternity shoot and it was a wonderful experience. Nithya and her husband both were very professional and friendly. This was my first photo shoot experience but they made as very comfortable during the shoot. The pictures were very classic. We really enjoyed the day. Thank you...
