I'll help you freeze time.
At this moment you may just want time to fast forward, but when it does you're going to be searching for these pictures to look back at. How fast they grow will shock you, especially if you have photo proof.
Newborn "At-Home" Sessions
This session doesn't have a set time frame because babies are on their own schedules and we plan around them! Investing in this session will be worth it for years to come, because they will never be as little as they are right now. The first year is the most difficult, especially with your first, but as they get older you'll come to find that it's the fastest.
Things to think about prior:
What is the most important thing I want captured? Tiny baby details, parents & baby, or the details of life with baby?
Do I have special items that would personalize my photos?
Contract details:
Sessions usually last 45 minutes to 1 hour.
The digital gallery will have a guaranteed 25 edited photos for download.
Price begins at $145*
*If a studio is desired then price will reflect the studio session fee and session times will be set.
What to Expect
It's really up to you. I'm not one of those pose the baby in a swaddle and make them into a vegetable in the garden. I prefer the realness of life at home and what that looks like for your family, because when the kids are all grown up and our minds are forgetting the tiny moments the photos are what will bring it all back.
Either we can stick to one room, I can provide a backdrop, or we can take different shoots in different rooms. The photos below show mainly two rooms. This client really wanted a focus on the nursery. My focus is the details; those tiny features and adorable folds.
Safety First
I have two small children of my own, so I understand not only how difficult it is to care for a sick baby, but also that germs are all around. Even the most germophobic person still has cooties on them. So if it makes you feel more at peace I can wear a mask during the at-home sessions, wash my hands while you watch, and I NEVER touch the baby or baby items. I will direct you to place items or baby where they would look best for each and every photo, but most of the time the natural flow of being in your own home is what I want to capture.
What treasures photos are...
...for when our memories fade.
