Congratulations, first of all! What an exciting time for you! We will schedule your session within the first 1-3 weeks after your baby is born, understanding that we may need to change this, as babies come when they decide to come! We just ask that you let us know within 48 hours of birth if your baby won’t be under the 3 week old mark at the time of your scheduled session.

YES! I have TONS and TONS of props: headbands, wraps, buckets, baskets, etc. At my professional photography studio, I have everything you would need to make your newborn photo shoot a success! You just bring your beautiful newborn, and I will do the rest!

We ask that you please feed Baby two hours before your session,  and then don’t feed Baby again until you arrive at the studio 🙂 This way, Baby will be nice and full for our session.

Please keep Baby up for 2-3 hours prior to the session. I know this will be hard, but trust me… it’ll make for a much smoother session 🙂 The longer you keep Baby awake prior to the session, the better the images will be. A suggestion would be to give Baby a bath or keep Baby unbundled so they don’t feel tempted to sleep. If your drive to the studio takes longer than 30 minutes, please keep Baby awake during the ride as best you can. You can try dabbing Baby’s face with a wet cloth or just leave Baby in a onesie during the ride over. At this point, Baby should be pretty sleepy/hungry so don’t be discouraged if Baby is fussy!

The newborn photo shoot can last up to 3 hours… so feel free to bring lunch/snacks/drinks for you to enjoy during the time you’re here. You will be relaxing in my studio, while I photograph your baby! So bring a book, your phone, snacks, a blanket to nap with… 🙂
