Newborn & Maternity
Preparing for your session
Booking in your last trimester is Ideal for availability when scheduling Newborn Sessions and in your first trimester when booking Maternity Sessions
Once reserved I am on call till delivery.
Once you deliver you notify me of birth-date
Ideal Newborn Age is 0-14 days.
Life can take you on a different path sometimes. Don't worry, I can photograph any age
we may just need to change expectations after 14days
When to Book
To make sure I have availability, it is best to book at least 1-2 months before your due date. A non refundable retainer is due upon booking. Once you have booked and retainer is paid, I am on call till you deliver.
Once you give birth a session date is made within 14 days of delivery.
Newborn sessions times are held in the mornings between 9:30-11am
Newborn Sessions can be up to 1-2.5 hours depending on package and baby
The first 30min is an overview, going over set options and colors while baby is feeding.
I offer a mix of staged photos as well as a lifestyle feel. During your experience, I want you to have peace of mind knowing I am just a visitor in the mix. Every family is unique from a single mom or dad, same sex couples, to families with multiple kids I welcome you all.
I want to show you how special yours is. Whether or not you know exactly what your vision is, or you want me to customize something on the spot. I’m here to help guide and assure you in the most loving & creative way possible.
