Newborn Sessions


The optimum time to photograph newborns is in the first 2 weeks of life and I like to schedule newborn sessions within this time frame. The reason for this is because that is when baby still goes into those deep, deep sleeps and is also very flexible. They also still want to curl up into little balls. :)


I ask that you contact me as soon as possible and before baby arrives to reserve your session and you must pay in advance. Of course we cannot schedule a particular day, and I understand that babies come when THEY want to, but having a general knowledge of the estimated due date is helpful. Be sure to inform me once baby is born so that we can set an actual date & time. Even if you are unable to call ahead of time and would like to schedule a newborn shoot, I will always try to make time in my schedule, if possible.


I do newborn sessions in your home, so there is no need to take your baby out anywhere. I will find the best place in your home near a window for light and don't be surprised if I ask to move furniture around! Newborn sessions typically last up to 3 hours. This includes getting them into those deep sleeps. :) Things move slowly and there is no rush.

:Prices:

Newborn session fee $125 - this includes my time, talent, and post processing to capture and create your precious memories.

Newborn Package A $175 - this includes the session fee, $25 print credit and 25 custom birth announcements with envelopes (you save $15!)

Newborn Package B $250- this includes the session fee, $130 print credit and 25 custom birth announcements with envelopes (you save $50!)

Payment is due upon booking in order to reserve your session date and time. The session fee is NONREFUNDABLE, however, if you need to reschedule, the fee is transferred to your new date and time as long as you give 24 hour advance notice. If you cancel or do not give at least 24 hours notice of rescheduling, the fee is forfeited.
