Newborn Sessions

May 15, 2010

WHEN TO SCHEDULE:
The best time to contact me is before you have your baby.  I suggest booking your newborn session 2 to 3 months before the little one arrives, since I only take a limited amount of newborns a month. I will then add you to my schedule when your due date is expected.  Once your baby arrives preferably day 8 to 20 days old is the best time to schedule your session. If you have already had your little one or expecting very soon please contact me soon to inquire about availability.

MY STYLE: Newborns are one of my favorite subjects to capture.  I love to capture them in a beautiful organic natural form, keeping it simple without overpowering them with props or unnatural posing. I do use blankets/wraps, keeping it soft, simple and beautiful!  I use natural earth tones and love an organic natural look. I believe in classic and timeless images.  Please view my portfolio to see my newborn style of photography and work to see if it is the right fit for you. As an artist I stick with an natural organic style focusing on baby and the connection with baby and parents.

The session will consist of a mix of natural lifestyle images and portrait shots using only natural light in your home with mom and dad (more of a candid feel) also capturing precious portraits of your baby naturally using blankets and wraps that I will provide.

YOUR SESSION:
All newborn sessions will start in the morning to capture that soft morning light. It’s not uncommon for the session with a newborn to last about 1.5 or about 2 hours, allowing plenty of time for feedings and comfort. They are not rushed at all.  My sessions are done in the clients home using the natural light from large windows, etc… I have tons of blankets, wraps, etc.. to use for your session. I am a natural light photographer, so I will be using the natural light in your home when shooting.  Please inquire if you feel your home may not have sufficient light.

All newborn sessions focus mainly on the baby, but will include mom, dad and siblings only.
