The Client Experience Blueprint for Newborn Photography with ASHLEY LOWDER

In this episode of the Camera Shake Podcast, I’m joined by maternity and newborn photographer Ashley Lowder to break down what truly makes a successful newborn photography session—beyond just lighting and posing.

We explore how to create a calm, supportive client experience, build trust quickly with new parents, and guide maternity clients who may feel awkward or vulnerable in front of the camera. Ashley shares her real-world newborn workflow, safety-first approach, and how she keeps sessions flowing smoothly even when things don’t go to plan.

This conversation also dives into the photography business side of maternity and newborn work, including pricing for value, selling artwork as heirlooms, and positioning yourself as a premium service rather than competing on price alone.

Whether you’re an amateur photographer, a working professional, or someone starting a photography business, this episode is packed with practical insights you can apply immediately.
