Newborn
Newborn sessions are 100% stylized and includes all props/outifts. Ideal age for babies is 6-21 days old. Newborn posed sessions can last between 2-3 hours long & are done in the mornings with a limited number of due dates per month! All sessions are done in my home studio in Elkhart, IN or In my loft studio shared space in Fulton Market, Chicago.
Once you know your due date you can book a session here. Please use closest date available to due date.
Once your session is booked, I'll send you a prep-guide that explains more of what to expect at your session, ways to prepare for your session, and a questionnaire!
FAQ

The booking process is painless and easy. You may click the bookingOnce we have chatted, I will send out an invoice with the retainer fee that is required to hold your date/session.

HOW DO YOU BOOK NEWBORNS?
Babies are totally unpredictable. Your due date is just an estimated time of when they will make their big arrival. I will soft book you on my calendar based on your due date. Once baby is born I ask that you please notify me and I will get them scheduled within 7-18 days old.
Do you provide all the props for newborns?
Yes! I focus and mainly use neutral, jewel and earth tones for layers and wraps. I avoid bright colors and extra props during my session as I want to give you timeless photos you will love 20 years from now. I do not pose babies naked. All parents are shot on a warm brown background. Please see portfolio for references.
