Thank you for reaching out with your questions regarding the sessions I offer. With over 10 years of experience working with newborns and their families, I understand how precious this time is, and I would be honored to help you capture these unforgettable moments. First and foremost, congratulations on the arrival of your new baby! I understand that this is a lot of information to take in, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need further clarification.
Newborn Sessions: A Timeless Keepsake My Newborn Sessions offer a unique opportunity to capture the precious moments of your baby's earliest days. This collection is designed to provide a one-of-a-kind experience, covering all aspects of your newborn photography needs. Sessions are held in my fully equipped home studio in Three Oaks, MI. Every detail is taken care of—props, accessories, and clothing for your newborn are all provided. While everything you need is available, you are welcome to incorporate any personal items to make the session even more special. Our exclusive prop closet ensures that we have everything necessary to create the perfect setting for your newborn's photos. Once your session is complete, a proofing gallery with professionally edited images will be provided, allowing you to select your favorites.
Session Duration: Newborn sessions typically last between 1-3 hours.
Booking Availability: Sessions are available weekdays at either 10:00 AM or 11:00 AM.
Variety of Setups: Each setup features a unique scene and pose, ensuring a variety of images. Our goal is to provide distinct looks for each set, avoiding repetitive poses.
Options: You can select any session for newborn-only sessions. For sibling or parent inclusion, the Classic or Deluxe collection is recommended. For full family portraits (parents + additional children), the Deluxe collection is required. Please note, the Short & Sweet collection is for baby only.
Pricing: The session fee reflects a single birth. For multiple births, there is an additional $75 per baby.
Newborn Sessions are Time-Sensitive Due to the nature of newborn photography, I only accept a limited number of sessions each month to remain flexible for your baby’s arrival. To ensure a spot, I recommend booking in advance, as availability is not guaranteed once my calendar fills. Once your baby arrives, please contact me as soon as possible so we can schedule your session. The ideal timing for newborn sessions is between 3-10 days old, with 14 days being the latest for capturing those authentic, early newborn moments. Please note that pricing is subject to change, and quotes are valid for two weeks only. Sessions are not officially booked until both the contract is signed and the retainer fee is paid..
