what every
needs to know
Today…is all about You! Your family, your love, your memories of this precious moment! Your newborn photography needs to be flawlessly customized and designed to fit exactly what you both need, want, and desire.
I understand exactly how much care and adoration that surrounds you and your new baby, and you deserve to have each moment captured, each memory relived. I couldn’t be happier to become your newborn photographer, ready to help you with your photography, your outfits, your props, your prints, and everything else, to make sure you have the perfect newborn images!
Just relax, enjoy your photo session, and look forward to receiving timeless images of your baby!
Try to keep your baby awake before the session. If your baby sleeps for 2 hours before our session, they will most likely remain awake for their session and thus, make it harder to achieve those cute and curly newborn poses.
Prepare for extra time as the mom, for feeding time and lots of cuddles, to help keep your baby soothed and comfortable.
Wear comfortable lightweight clothing as the temperature of the studio is set to 82.4° F for the comfort of your baby.
Pack a spare change of clothes just in case there are any little accidents.
Bring a pacifier – Only if you are using one, as they can be very helpful during the session.
If you’re formula feeding bring with you extra bottles just in case.
For older siblings bring along a couple of their favorite toys or books to keep them entertained.
When choosing colors for your outfits, we recommend selecting softer, lighter tones and more muted shades. By avoiding ultra-bright, bold colors, it will help bring all the attention to your faces and let the eye focus on the way you feel about each other. The camera loves shades of soft pink and muted blues, mixed with sophisticated light neutrals like heather gray, creams, leather brown and white. That softer color palette fits beautifully into almost all natural outdoor environments, and especially compliments the natural light.
