One useful answer, not a sales quiz
The recommendation is based on baby development and the type of photographs you want. You can still choose a different session style after speaking with a photographer.

Keep the result practical
Photography timing is a planning aid, not a deadline. Recovery, feeding, health and family comfort should always carry more weight than recreating a particular pose.
Once you know the likely session stage, use the saved session checklist to prepare without trying to remember everything at once.
Frequently asked questions
Is my due date or baby birth date saved?
No. The planner runs entirely in your browser. The date is used only to calculate the session stage and is not sent to this website, Google Analytics or Sweetlife Photography.
What if my baby is older than the recommended newborn window?
The planner will suggest an older-newborn, 100 days, sitter, first birthday or family milestone approach instead. Beautiful photographs are not limited to the first two weeks.
Does the result reserve a photography session?
No. It is an independent planning guide. Availability and final session advice must be confirmed directly with the photographer.
