What to Bring to Your Newborn Session for Military-Themed Images

A military-themed newborn session is a beautiful way to honor your service while capturing your baby’s first precious days. Whether you're in Clarksville, TN, or Ft. Campbell, KY, we’re here to create portraits that truly reflect your family’s journey. To ensure we capture these meaningful moments, here’s a list of items you can bring to your session.1. Military Uniform Items 

Your uniform tells the story of your dedication and sacrifice. Including it in your baby’s portraits adds a powerful and sentimental touch. Consider bringing:
*Dress uniform – This can be worn for a classic, formal look while holding your baby.
*ACU  jacket with patches and name tapes – You can wear it in the session or use it while safely tucking your baby into a pose.
*ACU pants with an extra-large leg pocket – If you’d like an image with your baby nestled in the pocket, be sure to bring a pair with a roomy, structured pocket for the best results.
*Detachable name tape  – A simple yet meaningful way to personalize your baby’s session.
*Dog tags – Draping them over baby’s fingers or toes adds a classic military touch.
*Boots – These tell the story of the journey that brought you here.
*Field hat with name tape – A great addition to show your service and dedication in a unique way.

2. Don’t Forget the Essentials!
If you’re planning to wear your uniform in photos with your newborn, be sure to bring:
✔ Undershirts and/or dress shirt 
✔ Ties (if required for your uniform)
✔ Pins, ribbons, patches or medals 
✔ Pants and belt 
✔ Socks and boots or dress shoes

Bringing all the necessary pieces ensures your uniform looks complete and polished in the final portraits.
