Q: Why photograph the baby that early 5-10?
A: I know how you feel tires/exhausted and not the prettiest ,when you just had a baby,Its been proven that babies are curly and sleepy best for the first couple weeks of their life.It so much easier to pose the baby at 5-10 days. Don’t worry if the babies belly button is not healed, I try to cover it up with posing and wraps.
And Mama I know we carry extra unwanted weight in our bodies after birth, I take that into consideration when posing and editing… So don’t worry!
Q: Can Me and My Husband be in some of the pictures with our baby?
A: Absolutely Mama & Daddy are welcome to take photos with the baby for no Extra charge.
I warned you the Studio will be Warm! About 80 degree.

Also Bring something that will make him busy when he is not taking photos.

A. If needing to reschedule, please provide me with a 24+ hour notice in advance. You have 2 reschedules max!! When discussing another available date, keep in mind I am busy and do have other sessions, so there is no guarantee on an immediate new session date.
Q: Do you offer evening session?
I prefer not to do evening newborn session….
Reason
1.I have much better light in my studio in the morning
2.Babies do better in the morning
3.I have more energy & creativity in the morning. ( I am a morning person)
But If evening is the Only time you can make to to the studio.
It will be $50 Extra.
I understand that If you have older children they might need to skip school that day:((((
Do you any Saturday available for Newborn session?
Saturday Session is $50 Extra
Most of my Saturday session are usually booked way in advance…
and sometimes they are so not available:(
And babies Don't really come in their due date…. We have to play it by ear…
Q:Can we pick out Props we like to use?
A: Yes since we don’t have all the time in the world to do every pose and use every prop.
I Limit the props and outfits change
you can pick any 2 prop/baskets .
Outfits are picker during the session, I have box that you can look through, and pick out couple of your favorite.
Q: Why Newborn session last about 2-3hour????
A: There is a lot that goes on at the newborn session, thats feeding, burping changing the baby or cleaning the mess. Newborn are mostly photograph while they are sleeping , So taking the time to put the baby to sleep. Posing the baby in to perfect pose and so on. So time adds on....
***Please Prepare your Husband in advance, let him know that the session may that that long...
so if he need to take a laptop or iPad to work on, he is more then welcome to do that…
He may leave the session earlier if he has a meeting or so…. parents with siblings sometimes take 2 cars…
as soon as other children are done with pictures, they can go home or to the Park.
But are so WELCOME to stay in the studio during babies session***
Q: If my baby is nude, will they pee or poop on me?
A: Possibly, lol. At this age, babies have zero control. And I have that happen almost every session..Dads, mom and me get pooped on…
Make sure that you have extra clothes for yourself on hand. And Dont worry I hand wash and clean everything after the session.
Getting pooped on and doing lots of laundry is a Joy of being a Newborn Photographer :)
