I offer sessions on-location within 60-minute travel time from the Middletown studio.
It’s never too early. Your session should take place is when you're 29-34 weeks pregnant. While we may accommodate last-minute requests, we highly recommend booking at least 6-8 weeks in advance to ensure availability.
Newborn sessions are best when your baby is between 5 and 15 days old, as they tend to be sleepier and more naturally curled, making for those adorable poses.
To ensure availability, we recommend booking your session at least 3 to 4 months before your due date. Your due date will be noted on our calendar, and we kindly ask that you notify us within 48 hours of your baby’s arrival to finalize your session date. However, if you haven't booked in advance, feel free to reach out—we may still be able to accommodate a last-minute session.
During your consultation before the shoot, we will talk about how you want to be photographed along with anything that important that we include and what to prepare for. We will also provide a helpful Studio Guide as a reference.
I encourage you to bring any clothing or jewelry items that are sentimental to the session and I will help you style them.
For maternity sessions, we also offer the use of our collection of dresses, skirts, fabrics, and outfits.
For newborn sessions, we have all colors of wraps, headbands, bonnets, hats, blankets, and outfits to use.
Unless there is something specific you want included, we supply everything.
Yes, I do, but the goal is to make sure you look and feel like "you." All images are edited and retouched prior to the reveal so you can choose from the best versions.
About 2 weeks after your session, we will meet either on a Zoom or in the studio where you will view your images.
You will have the opportunity to purchase a collection including digital files and heirloom albums, as well as wall art and gift items.
For all newborn sessions, please notify us as soon as your little one arrives, along with their birth weight and size. This allows us to make any necessary adjustments to your session.
In most cases, only minor changes are needed to ensure the perfect fit for your baby’s portraits.
Of course! Your spouse/partner and any other children is more than welcome to join and is encouraged to do so.
Our goal is for you to feel confident, beautiful, and at ease during your photography experience while cherishing your final images.
