When is the best time to book a newborn session?
7-10 days is typically best but every baby and every situation is different. I prefer the newer babes who still curl up when you pick them up and sleep all day no matter what. However every human is different and has different needs, and personalities. I can absolutely accomodate babies of any age, poses may just take a little longer. After about 2 months the newborn poses most likely won’t happen, but we can take beautiful images at any age! My newborn outfits are made for up to 9 lb babies but I am continually adding larger items too, and wraps work on all sizes! As always be sure to check with your doctor if there are any concerns with certain poses and mobility, such as hip displasia or if baby had any health problems at birth. I am always flexible with how my sessions go and let baby decide what they like best.

When should I call to book my session?
2-3 months in advance is best for all session types. This will allow us time to plan a consultation, organize wardrobe and order anything needed. Also if payments are needed you have plenty of time for that as well.
-
Do you take payment plans?
Yes! I am flexible with payments. I require a deposit and then you can make weekly or monthly payments. Your choice! All images will be held until the final payment is made.
-
What do I need to bring with me to my session?
This depends on if you would like to include your own items or not. I provide an extensive wardrobe for all parties, even dad! For newborns we have all of the cutest outfits and props necessary for a full session. Just bring baby and food! Moms and siblings are always welcome, and encouraged to wear my pieces too!
-
How long will my session take?
Newborns are around 2-4 hours depending on how many things we do.
Maternity is about 1-2 hours, add an extra hour if you book hair & makeup on site.
Other session will vary, typically only take around 1-2 hours.
-
Do you charge extra for more people in the photos, or twins?
NO! I love including extended family, all the sibling, even pets! Just be warned, you will have lots of images to choose from! But I always say the more the merrier!
-
When should I book my maternity session?
I like to schedule this session once mama has a bump, but before the last month. This is the most uncomfortable month! My dresses will be flattering to all bump sizes. Around 30-35 weeks is the sweet spot for your photoshoot. But don’t wait to call! I like up to 2 months to plan you big day.

How many people can join?
I work on a 10 ft backdrop. I have fit up to 12 people, but the posing is limited. I can rent a larger studio if needed for big groups or plan a location shoot.
