Newborn sitting fees are $225 in studio last approximately 3 hours. We are on the baby’s schedule so multiple feeding breaks and clean-ups are common.

Details for Booking your Maternity Session:
If you are considering having a maternity session, I recommend waiting until you are 6-7 months pregnant. You want your belly to show, yet still feel small enough that you are mobile and feeling like a SEXY and CUTE pregnant Mom-2-Be! Pregnant women are beautiful and you will never feel this way again, it’s important to enjoy it , feel good about it and preserve that emotion through your photographs.
For maternity images, I recommend black shirts, long sleeved or tank tops, jeans, perhaps a favorite outfit or your husband’s button down shirt, your favorite lingerie set can also be fun.
Details for Booking Your Newborn Session:
Because your little one’s date of arrival is never 100% sure, we will reserve a time for you around your expected due date. When baby makes an appearance we will then make a firm appointment for the next few days. If you could add me to your list of people to call we will be sure not miss this small and precious window of time.
Your session should take place within 3-10 days of the baby’s birth. A general guide is around day 4 when mom’s milk has come in, the baby is getting enough to eat, and is sleeping well, and curling up small. Only prior to 7 days can we still capture the sweet curling up that very young newborns do. We can get a lot of really fun poses with them, that simply aren’t possible when they are older. Also, after the first week is when the inevitable and somewhat yucky things like baby acne and colic begin! Please phone and book your newborn portrait session while you are still pregnant. I want to be able to fit your baby in while they are still small.
I like to photograph little babies with their parents holding them, it shows how small they are, and also comforts the baby to have someone familiar holding them. Both parents should bring a long sleeved black shirt and pants.
Session Details:
The session fee pays for my time and skill during the session, post production editing and a private online viewing gallery only. The viewing gallery will display your best images about 2 weeks after your session and will remain online for 1 week during which time you will need to place your order.
After you order your favorite images they will be ready for pick up in about 3 weeks.
I consider your images an heirloom that I do not want to rush. QUALITY TAKES TIME!
In order to spend more time with my family, I usually work out of my home studio. I do offer photo sessions on location (either in your home using my portable studio or at an outdoor location of your choice) and have included this price in my Investment Page.
