FAQ

Here are a few of my most asked questions.  If you have any further questions about photos or the session feel free to email or call!

When should I schedule my newborn session?
The sooner the better as we only take so many newborns a month.  So you want to be sure to contact us during your pregnancy to get your due date on the calendar.  We are typically booked about 1-2 months in advance, although we do leave a little “breathing” room for unexpected arrivals.

When will my newborn session be?
I schedule the newborn session in the first 2 weeks of life to ensure they are nice and sleepy and have that fresh “newborn curl”.  Once you book, I’ll add your due date to the calendar and then once baby arrives you can give me a call or shoot me an email and we can finalize a date for the session.

Where do photo sessions take place?
Newborn session take place in my in-home studio.  We also offer lifestyle newborn sessions where I come to your home for cozy in-home photos. Maternity sessions can take place in-studio or outdoors depending on how you would like to showcase your beautiful baby bump. All family sessions take place outside at one of the beautiful fields that I love to use. Outdoor sessions are scheduled near sunset to achieve that gold glow.

How long do sessions last?
Most newborn sessions last an average of 2 hours. All other sessions last about 1 hour.

Is it ok for me to take photos during the session?
We request that you leave the photo taking to the professional. Having an additional camera in the studio can distract from the true focus of the session, your baby. But a quick behind-the-scene snap with your phone is fine.

What should I wear for our newborn session?
All clients have access to my studio wardrobe.  I have carefully curated beautiful dresses and outfits that will flatter and photograph well.  However, if you choose to wear your own, soft neutrals and clean whites are the perfect choice.

When will I receive my viewing gallery?
You will receive your password protected gallery within 2 weeks of your sessions.

Do you have props and blankets?
I do supply all wraps and blankets for your newborn session. I do not use props as I keep the focus on your sweet baby without distractions.
