Props, Poses, and Preferences

The Heart of Your Session Style

This page helps you explore my signature props and poses and share your styling preferences for your upcoming newborn session. Everything you submit helps me plan a gallery that aligns with your vision, while keeping the Lama’s Littles look soft, timeless, and baby-focused.

Signature Newborn Poses

Each pose is chosen based on your baby’s flexibility, comfort, and cues during the session. I only practice poses I am fully trained in, allowing your baby to remain safely supported at all times.

Poses Offered in My Studio

  • Classic Wrap - Classic swaddled baby.

  • Huck-Finn Pose - Simple baby on back setup.

  • Details - Detail shots of baby’s hands, feet, ear, nose, lips, and hair.

  • Chin on Hands Pose – A portrait of baby with chin resting on stacked hands.

  • Side-Lying Pose – Natural setup with baby on their side.

  • Bum Up Pose – Cute baby pose with baby on their stomachs.

  • Tucked-In Pose – A cozy, swaddled setup with a blanket draped over them.

  • Prop Poses – Wrapped or partially wrapped poses in baskets, bowls, and beds.

I do not offer unsafe or untrained upright positioning. Every pose is safe, supported, and baby-led.
