The Newborn Experience

Every session includes a set number of high-resolution digital images of your choice, with the option to purchase additional favorites after viewing your gallery. We provide everything needed for your session—props, accessories, backdrops, and more. Moms and little sisters also have access to our beautiful studio wardrobe featuring gowns and tulle dresses.

You are welcome to add professional makeup and hair for mom—arrive comfy and fresh-faced, and let our artist take care of the rest. While baby’s solo portraits are underway, you’ll be pampered and photo-ready just in time for family portraits afterward. Siblings are welcome to stay for the full session or join later once you’re ready for family and sibling photos.

Your selected images are fully retouched and ready for download within 7 days of your photo shoot. During your viewing appointment, you’ll have the opportunity to upgrade to a larger digital collection or choose from our stunning albums, wall art, and keepsakes—only purchase what you truly love!

Prop Set:
A Prop Set features your baby posed in or on one of our structured props—such as our carriage, moon, bucket, or tiny bed—styled beautifully on the backdrop of your choice.

Classic Poses:
Classic poses are the clean, timeless portraits of baby on a solid-colored blanket. These include tummy, side, womb, froggy, and similar traditional poses that highlight baby’s sweet features.

Accessorizing:
You’re welcome to choose any accessories you love—bonnets, hats, headbands, outfits, wraps, and more. During each setup, I typically capture multiple variations of the same pose by changing accessories, angles, and compositions so you’ll have several options to choose from.

For example: your baby girl might begin on her tummy with a headband, then I’ll add a wrap for a second look, take a close-up, capture an overhead angle, and switch to a bonnet for another variation. All of these would count as one classic pose with several beautiful options.

Family Photos:
Family Portraits are taken on a backdrop color of your choice or I can choose based on your clothing. We’ll photograph:

  • Mom holding baby
    • Add dad
    • Add siblings
  • Dad holding baby
    • Add mom
    • Add siblings again

We also can do silhouette images on the white backdrop with each parent and the family together.

Another fun set we do is putting mom in one of my beautiful gowns taking photos laying down holding baby.

Sibling Photos:
Sibling photos are taken with baby in a small bed and older children looking down at baby or smiling at the camera, children laying down holding baby on furry rug or other background color choice, baby in a carriage with older sibling holding, or older children sitting, holding baby. We can do 2-3 different looks with siblings as long as they’re cooperative.
