Are there digital images included in my session fee?

Yes it is an all inclusive fee that includes your session fee and a set number of digital images with a permission to print letter.

When should I schedule my newborn session?

The ideal time for a newborn session is between 3-10 days after birth. In order to ensure that you get an appointment time within that very short notice you should book your newborn photography session while you are still pregnant, at least 2 months in advance . . As soon as your baby is born you should contact me ASAP to firm up a date within those first couple of weeks

Why is the ideal age between 5-10 days?

Newborn babies change very, very fast. In order to capture that sweet, sleepy, foldable newborn goodness it needs to be done very early on. After the first couple of weeks babies tend to become more and more alert and have much longer periods of awake time making it much more difficult to capture those beutifull poses.

I missed the 2 week window, what should I do now?

Please inquire if there are any last minute openings available, however if you are over 3 weeks from the date of birth your session might no longer be considered a newborn session. The next ideal age to photograph is 3 months and older. 6-9 months is really amazing age because babies are usually sitting, playing, laughing yet not old enough to walk and run away!

When should I schedule my maternity session?

Maternity sessions are best held between 30-36 weeks into your pregnancy. During this stage your belly has a beautiful shape and you should be feeling great, yet it is generally early enough that you won’t go into labour before having your session!

Can I bring my other children to my newborn session?

Absolutely, older siblings are always welcome and we can incorporate them into the session as much or as little as you would like but Newborn photography sessions are very long and involved (up to 3 hours, sometimes longer). The key to a successful newborn session is a lot of patience . This is often a very frustrating situation for toddlers, which then adds to the stress level of parents.
