If you've ever watched a newborn session unravel the second the wrap comes off, this is the course I wish I'd had. The Newborn Workflow is a full session taught the way I actually shoot it — one calm, repeatable move at a time. We open with the simplest pose to settle the room, build the back set and dial in the light, ease her out of the wrap without losing her, and work through the bowl, the pocket, and the belly, troubleshooting the squirms, the shadows, and the chin as we go. But the real lesson lives underneath the poses: how to read the baby in front of you, get the shot before you perfect it, keep your gallery varied, and finish on a good note. It's the method I've refined over years of real sessions, and it bends to the baby instead of fighting her — so your next session feels less like a wrestling match and more like a workflow.
