ready to book?
Ahh, I'm so excited!! Let the planning begin! If you're unsure of what to wear or would like my opinion feel free to reach out! I love being apart of the planning process. For new mamas I recommend wearing white/ cream, neutrals, pastels or black. Avoid wearing tops with words, prints, or ones that wrinkle easily. Your comfort will show through in pictures. Remember that it's more about you snuggling your new baby than the clothing you're wearing! I will also send out a questionnaire to help me prepare for your session. Please share any ideas that you would like to try!
prepping for your shoot
Can't wait to see you and capture this special occasion! I am here to ensure that your session will be documented in a timeless and authentic way. To do that I ask that you will relax, take a deep breath, let go of all expectations, and I'll take care of the rest! Bring an extra change of clothes in case of any messes. You are welcome to bring something to bring something to do while I photograph the baby. Sessions typically last around 2 hours.

The best email to come through your inbox has to be on gallery delivery day!! 2-3 weeks following your session, I will send an email with your gallery information!

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK OUR NEWBORN SESSION?
As far in advance as possible! I only book a certain number of newborns each month.
DO WE HAVE TO BRING ANYTHING?
All props, outfits, swaddles, hats, and headbands are provided for your session. Your welcome to bring up to 3 personal items but this isn't required.
WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR?
Neutrals, pastels, off white, ivory, or cream are all recommended
colors! Dresses are a great option as well! Avoid clothes that have wrinkles, extra room, bold colors such as black, and clothes you'll
have to repeatedly adjust. Simple clothes photograph the best!
WHAT IF MY BABY ENDS UP IN THE NICU? Or has jaundice?
This does happen and it is okay! Don't worry about the session, we will reschedule for another time.
WHAT TIME OF DAY SHOULD WE SCHEDULE THE SESSION?
Typically I try to schedule newborn sessions in the morning or early afternoon. However, I have had sessions at different times throughout the day so don't worry if mornings aren't the best time for you. I am here to accommodate your needs.
IS THERE ANYTHING I SHOULD DO BEFORE THE SESSION?
Yes, if you are breastfeeding try to avoid caffeine, spicy foods, or any other food that could potentially upset the baby's belly. Additionally, try to keep the baby awake as much as possible on the day of the session.
WHAT IF I NEED TO RESCHEDULE MY APPOINTMENT?
Contact me as soon as possible if you need to reschedule. We will attempt to reschedule within the recommended time frame. The older newborns get the more alert they become and it becomes more challenging to get those cute little squishy poses.
HOW MANY IMAGES WILL I RECEIVE?
It depends on how the baby does during the session. Most newborn sessions that include the baby and the family will receive anywhere from 40-60 images,
WHY DO YOU RECOMMEND THAT I PRINT THROUGH YOU?
I have thoughtfully chosen professional labs from around The United States to fulfill my print orders. Not only is the quality outstanding but the color variations are excellent as well. Yes, I love to offer prints and other products for my clients to purchase. Prints, canvases, albums, USB's and announcements are some of the products that can be purchased.
