Frequently Asked Questions - Newborns


How do you choose props and color schemes?

When planning for your newborn session, I send out a questionnaire to gather information like “what colors would you like to see incorporated”, “what colors do you NOT want to see incorporated”… from there I carefully plan out every detail from hats/headbands, container props, etc. Please do remember that newborn sessions are baby led, and not every baby will allow us to get every pose! I work very hard to ensure that your gallery will be filled with beautiful and unique images, but I cannot guarantee that I will be able to get a specific pose every time.

When are Newborns photographed?

Ideally, I like to bring newborns in sometime within the first two weeks after birth. I recommend reaching out as soon as possible to have your due date added to my calendar. Once baby arrives, we will schedule a day and time from there.

How long do newborn sessions take?

.Most newborn sessions last 2-3 hours. But baby runs the show and all newborn sessions are baby led.

What do I bring with me?

Just you and baby! I will have all the props, wraps, headbands, hats, etc, etc… However, some clients do choose to bring sentimental pieces to be incorporated.


How will I receive my images?

All images are delivered via an online gallery ONLY. You will be able to save and share the images from your online gallery.

What can I expect when I arrive?

For newborn sessions, I do keep the studio warm to prevent baby from getting too cold while being wrapped and unwrapped for different poses. The studio will have dim lighting and a sound machine going to create the perfect environment for a happy baby.

What should I wear for Parent Poses?

I recommend sticking to a neutral color palette! Brown, cream, white, tan, grey, black. I find that sticking with neutral colors truly creates a timeless look that you can frame in your home and never get tired of looking at! Backdrop options that are available are white, cream/tan, grey, and black.
