A Session That Honors You
THE PROCESS
01
INQUIRE
Contact me here. Tell me your due date, your wishes for in-home or studio, and any other details you’re willing to share.
02
RESERVE + PLANNING
With a $175 retainer and a signed contract, your due date is on my calendar. I’ll send your session guide with all the helpful tips for planning and prepping, my studio wardrobe options, and check-in as your due date approaches.
03
SESSION DAY
The best part! Your newborn baby is here and we’re ready to document all the tiny features. You will be here for the entirety of the session, but can be as hands-off as you’d like. I will help rock them and settle them, get them into poses and positions, etc.
04
GALLERY DELIVERY
As soon as we’re done with the session, I go back up all your images and start curating a full gallery for your family. You’ll receive a minimally edited soft proof gallery of all images sent within three days of our session for you to thoroughly view and select your favorite images to be fully edited. Once those are selected (and additional images have been purchased), I’ll send all your purchased images within one week and have your prints ready for pick-up or shipping.

We secure your spot with the your retainer and due date, but will not schedule the actual day until after baby arrives. Once baby arrives, we will usually schedule for the session to be within the first 3 weeks of life. Newborn sessions may be booked during the week between 9am - 1pm.

Great question! The sooner the better.
Maternity is best taken between 28 and 32 weeks pregnant. I recommend making sure your session is secured and retainer is paid in the 20-24 weeks timeframe.
I suggest securing your newborn session early in your second trimester. This will ensure you have your session spot and won’t be scrambling last minute. There’s lots of planning that goes into it and we wanna be sure you’re well-prepared before you go into labor/induced.
