So Tiny, So Loved.

Those first days with your baby pass in such a blur — sleepy cuddles, tiny stretches, soft little sighs, and details that seem to change overnight. Newborn photography is about preserving those moments in a way that feels natural, beautiful, and deeply personal.

As an Edmonton newborn photographer, I specialize in studio newborn portraits that capture your baby exactly as they are in these early days. From their tiny fingers and delicate eyelashes to the way they curl up so peacefully in your arms, every image is created with care and attention to detail.

My approach is gentle, baby-led, and focused on creating timeless portraits that feel soft, emotional, and beautifully refined.

When To Schedule Your Newborn Session

Newborn sessions are ideally photographed within the first 5 to 14 days after birth. During this stage, babies are typically sleepier, curl naturally into those sweet newborn poses, and are still adjusting to life outside the womb.

Because due dates can be unpredictable, newborn sessions are best reserved during pregnancy to ensure availability on my calendar. Once baby arrives, we’ll finalize your studio session date.

A Calm & Comfortable Studio Experience

Designed With Your Baby in Mind

Your baby’s comfort and safety are always my highest priority. The studio is kept warm, quiet, and relaxing to create a calm environment for both baby and parents.

Every session is completely baby-led, allowing plenty of time for feeding, soothing, cuddling, and breaks whenever needed. There is never any pressure to rush through the experience.

With gentle posing and careful attention to every detail, I create portraits that highlight the softness, innocence, and tiny features you never want to forget.

Styling & Session Planning

Before your session, we’ll discuss the overall style you’re drawn to, including colours, textures, wraps, and setups. The studio includes a curated collection of newborn wraps, knit layers, headbands, bonnets, and simple props selected specifically for timeless newborn photography.

Parent and sibling portraits can also be included to capture the connection and love surrounding your new baby.

What to Expect at Your Newborn Session

Once your session is booked, you’ll receive a detailed preparation guide so you know exactly what to expect before arriving at the studio. From what to bring to how the session flows, everything is designed to make the experience feel easy and stress-free for your family.

Newborn sessions move at your baby’s pace. Some little ones sleep soundly through the entire session, while others need extra cuddles and comfort along the way — and that’s completely okay. There is no rush!

My goal is to create a relaxed experience where you can simply slow down and soak in these first days with your baby while I preserve them through beautiful, heartfelt imagery.

I had both my maternity and newborn photos done by Michelle. She was so lovely to work with and both shoots turned out so well. She has great attention to detail and her photos speak for themselves. So glad she was able to capture these special moments for me.

Michelle is a true artist. A master at her craft. Her work is so beautiful and carefully curated with no detail left unfinished. In addition, she’s the kindest person with the MOST patience. I appreciate how professional she is and never makes me feel like a burden (even if I am, lol) The photos she’s given us of our sweet family are invaluable.

We've been coming to see Michelle ever since our oldest was born. Everything from our newborn photos to Christmas family photos, she's been amazing. Her photos come out amazing each time. If you're looking for a photographer to take some great pictures of your kids, look no further

Michelle Sadee has a very professional, friendly and patient approach when taking newborn photos. Our baby immediately warmed up to Michelle during the shoot, even during fussy fits by our baby. Michelle provides a unique take on newborn photos that have left us with incredible photos that we will forever cherish. Thank you. Will always recommend. Update 2023-12-30 We’ve had the pleasure of working with Michelle Sadée Photography for our daughters’ newborn photos and our family’s Christmas mini sessions for the last two years. Each session with Michelle has been an extraordinary experience. Her talent in newborn photography is exceptional, beautifully capturing the delicate and precious moments of our daughters’ early days. During the Christmas minis, she skillfully brings out the joy and warmth of our family, creating lasting memories. Michelle’s work is consistently breathtaking and awe-inspiring. We are truly grateful for the moments she has preserved for us and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who excels in capturing the essence of family and the fleeting beauty of newborns.

My husband and I are so glad we found Michelle! We have done 2 shoots with her so far, our newborn shoot and Christmas minis. Her studio is absolutely stunning and her work is incredible!! It was so hard to choose between all the photos because they are always all so beautiful even before any editing. Looking forward to having her continue to capture our family memories :) Thank you Michelle for being amazing at what you do!

Michelle was amazing with our newborn and the pictures came out fantastic. Highly recommended. We came back 3 years later with our second child and Michelle was still fantastic with new and updated props and sets. You can't do better for your newborn!

Michelle is AMAZING! I am not the biggest fan of having my photo taken. I always feel awkward and unsure of how to even hold my self. Michelle coaches you on how to stand and makes you just feel so beautiful 💕 what a wonderful experience. I have had my maturity photos done ( and back to me so fast ! ) and I'm already booked in for my babies photos!

We had the most amazing experience getting our newborn photos done with Michelle. It was the first time we had left the house with our newborn and we were nervous and uneasy about how baby would do. Michelle made us feel comfortable from the start and was incredible with our baby. She is the baby whisperer! She was so gentle and knew exactly what to do to keep baby from getting fussy and keep her comfortable. So comfortable, our daughter slept through the whole 4hr shoot! Michelle is not only professional, but warm and nurturing. Any time we communicated afterwards through text or email, Michelle answered all our questions and gave us exactly what we were hoping for. All of our photos are to die for! Michelle’s studio is beautiful and she has so many incredible props and outfits to choose from. Her style is beautiful and timeless and the quality is high end. You will not be disappointed! We will for sure be back to get more photos done in the future.
