Newborn Sessions & Baby’s first year

Whether it’s your first child or you’re already a parenting pro (okay, maybe not a pro, but you’ve got a few things down!) that first year with a brand new baby is full of so many special moments. You can keep the memory-saving simple with just the signature newborn session, or browse the collections to see how you can make sure those first year milestones are remembered.

Newborn FAQ:

Where-:
-Newborn sessions are taken in my clients’ homes, but I can do so much with just a little! If you don’t feel like your home is Instagram-worthy, I promise, we can still create beautiful portraits there. I’ll also bring a small studio setup for some natural pictures that focus just on baby and your sweet family without worrying about the background!
-Maternity and milestone sessions usually take place at one of the beautiful outdoor locations around, which we’ll choose together depending on your vision and preferences.
—Travel fees may apply to those more than 30 miles from my home in the Troutman, NC, area.

When:
-Newborn sessions are typically best within the first two weeks of birth, but we can absolutely get sweet photos of your new little one even if they are a little older! They just may be more awake and less “posey” the older they are, which is still totally fine. We all know newborns don’t always arrive on your due date, so we’ll usually pencil in a date that we think will work and adjust as needed once baby arrives.
-Maternity sessions differ from mom to mom, as some don’t show much until the later weeks of pregnancy, and some moms may just prefer a smaller bump towards the middle of their pregnancy. A good rule of thumb is 35 weeks for a typical round, maternity session belly! :)
