There’s something magical about a newborn photoshoot — every pose tells a story, every detail captures a memory. At Mohastudio, we are known for creating heart-melting newborn portraits that combine artistry, safety, and timeless beauty. Whether you’re an Emirati mama or an expat in Dubai or Abu Dhabi, here’s a look at the most popular newborn poses we capture in our studio — and why parents fall in love with them.
1. The “Taco” Pose (Womb Pose)
This is one of the most classic and beloved poses for newborns. Your baby is gently curled up, mimicking their position in the womb. It highlights their flexibility and tiny features, creating a cozy, peaceful look that always melts hearts.
Perfect for: sleepy newborns under 14 days old.
2. The “Froggy” Pose
A studio favorite — the baby’s hands are placed under the chin with legs folded forward. This pose showcases facial features while keeping the baby supported at all times. At Mohastudio, we use composite techniques to ensure this is done safely and professionally.
Note: Only done by trained newborn photographers using Photoshop composites for safety.
3. Wrapped Poses
Wrapped poses keep babies feeling snug and secure — just like they felt in the womb. We use soft, neutral-toned wraps and natural textures to style each photo. Parents love the simplicity and elegance of these images.
Perfect for: awake or fussy babies.
4. The “Side-Lying” Pose
A beautiful and natural look, the baby is posed on their side with their hands under their cheek — just like they’re dreaming. This timeless pose highlights your baby’s profile and relaxed features.
5. The “Potato Sack” Pose
This is an adorable upright pose where the baby is fully wrapped and supported to sit up gently like a little bundle. It creates a whimsical, magazine-style portrait — often topped with a cute bonnet or headband.
Ideal for: including in large canvas prints or fine art albums.
6. Parent Hands + Baby Details
We also love to incorporate mama’s or baba’s hands into the portraits — holding the baby gently or cradling their head. These powerful photos show connection and scale, reminding you just how tiny they once were.
7. Sibling + Family Poses
If your baby has older siblings, we pose them together safely to capture those early bonding moments. Family portraits at Mohastudio are styled to be elegant, neutral, and emotional — perfect for wall art.
8. Close-Up Macro Shots
Tiny toes, pouty lips, delicate lashes, and wrinkled fingers — our macro lens captures the newborn details that disappear in just weeks. These close-ups are perfect additions to albums and memory boxes.
