Step 1. WHEN & HOW TO BOOK

Newborn sessions are typically scheduled several months in advance and photographed within the first 6-12 days of the baby(bies)'s birth or due date.


Sometimes babies come early so it's important that I am contacted as soon as possible to secure a new session date.


Step 2. SESSION PLANNING

My goal as your photographer is to make sure you have a stress free experience. Leading up to your session, I will guide you with tips on how to prepare in advance, what to wear, what to bring with you, send a questionnaire, etc.


You are always welcome to contact me with any questions to ensure you feel ready.


Step 3.  CONNECT WITH NURSE JENN FROM LEARN TO LOVE LABOR

The Premium & Watch Me Grow collections includes 18 months of complimentary access to "Understanding Postpartum Health & Baby Care Essentials" web app and along with a 30-minute phone consultation with Nurse Jenn from Learn 2 Love Labor.


Once you've booked your newborn session, Nurse Jenn will personally reach out to schedule your call and help you get set up with the web app.


This is an invaluable resource, especially for first-time parents, as it offers a clear overview of what to expect and helps you feel empowered and prepared for when you’re back home.

Step 4. SESSION DAY!

Throughout your session, the goal is to make you feel comfortable and relaxed as I photograph your new little bundle of joy.


Whether you'd like to be included in the photos or not, I will spend most of the time photographing the baby so feel free to take a snooze or watch as the session unfolds.


You can expect to be at the studio for approximately 2–3 hours, depending on how your baby is feeling during the session and, if young siblings are included, how long they’re comfortable participating.


Step 5. GALLERY VIEWING & PRINT ORDERS

Within 2 weeks after your session, you will receive an online gallery with the best softly edited proofs. I eliminate photos that are either duplicates or the expression was unintentional (i.e. blinking, talking, etc.)


From there, you will order your favorite photos from the a la carte print menu or the amount of photos included in your chosen collection to be professionally retouched.


I offer a variety of printed products you can proudly display in your home. Products include thick page albums, matted prints & print box, matted folio album, and bifold/trifold folios.


What a special way to remember the now!
