The process
Booking
Newborn sessions are best done within the first 3 weeks of birth, this is why itβs best to schedule your session in your 2nd or 3rd trimester to ensure a spot on the calendar. Send me an email, a text or give me a call and we will have a brief conversation where I can answer any questions you have and we can get to know each other and decide If I'm a good fit as your photographer. Then, we'll book your session! The session fee is due at the time of booking to reserve your appointment time.
The session
Your newborn session will last about 2 hours (3-4 for twins). I shoot for quality, not quantity. I want your session to be as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. I've learned to become very patient with newborns and the time it takes to get the perfect shot. I encourage parents to just relax during their baby's session, I'll let you know if I need you for any reason. I don't mind feeding the baby (if bottle-fed), or even changing diapers, so mom can relax and get a much-needed break! Safety is my #1 so there is also typically an assistant at the studio for an extra set of hands to spot and soothe baby.
The studio is quite large and thereβs plenty of room for parents to relax during the session. There is also complimentary coffee, water, and snacks available. Make yourselves at home!
Viewing Appointment
Within 2 weeks of your session, we will meet back at the studio where you will view your images for the first time! Together we will go through the images and decide which ones you love and then figure out in which ways you'd like to showcase them in your home, be it gallery wrap canvases, framed portraits, wood prints, or a keepsake album. You'll be able to touch and hold each item I carry so you can make sure you are getting something you'll love and cherish for years to come.
Items purchased are shipped to you directly within 2-3 weeks, and any digital images purchased you are able to take home that day.
