NEWBORN STUDIO SESSIONS

 

I will give you a laid back and relaxing experience when you bring your newborn in for your studio session. I handle everything from outfits, headbands and hats, to wraps and props. The only thing you will need to bring is that sweet new baby. ❤️

Make sure to get in touch as early as possible (usually during the 2nd trimester) to ensure availability. Do not wait until after baby is born or I may not have any openings! I only take a limited number of due dates per month, so sessions fill quickly and I absolutely hate turning people away. Make sure to get in touch sooner rather than later to schedule your session!

*Newborn sessions are scheduled when baby is between 5 and 21 days old preferably.

*Newborn sessions are only scheduled on weekday mornings.


STUDIO LIFESTYLE

NEW!

I am now offering STUDIO LIFESTYLE images with my Deluxe Newborn package! If you want a light, bright, more relaxed and less posed look to your family and sibling photos, my lifestyle nook would work great!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHEN SHOULD I SCHEDULE MY NEWBORN SESSION?
As soon as you are comfortable. Most families will opt to schedule during that 2nd trimester. I prefer to take 1 sometimes 2 newborn sessions per week, so once I have so many due dates in a month, I don't take anymore babies! If you can, don't wait until the last few weeks of pregnancy or it gets very hard to squeeze you in!

*All newborn and baby sessions are scheduled on weekday mornings. Usually Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays.

HOW OLD DOES MY BABY NEED TO BE FOR HIS/HER SESSION?
I prefer for the baby to be at least 7 days old when you bring them into the studio. If Mom had a C-section, I would rather wait until baby is at least 2 weeks old to ensure Mom has had a little more time to heal. I have taken newborn sessions when baby is as old as 4-5 weeks as well.

DO I NEED TO BRING ANYTHING TO MY NEWBORN SESSION?
Nope! I have a full studio with carefully curated items from high quality vendors including outfits, props, hats, wraps, and headbands all designed with baby’s comfort in mind. I will provide everything. If you have something sentimental you would like to bring and incorporate, I'm happy to do so! I just ask that you let me know ahead of time and limit those items to 1 or 2. Also, those tiny outfits are adorable, but I have found that the more outfit changes you do, the more unhappy that baby will be.

CAN I PICK THE COLORS YOU USE?
Yes! A few days before your newborn session, I will send a survey to you asking some details about your baby boy or girl, some questions about what you are wearing (as well as suggestions!), and asking if you have any color preferences for your session.

 

**STUDIO CHANGES DUE TO COVID

  • I am fully vaccinated! I have also received a booster shot and I got my yearly flu shot.

  • Masks are not currently required in my studio, but you are more than welcome to wear one and I am happy to wear one as well upon your request.

  • Hand sanitizer and lysol wipes are used regularly and are available to clients to use as needed.

  • The only foot traffic in my studio is myself and my clients, so exposure is minimal.

This is all subject to change as the situation changes!

If you have a little one, you want Kelly to capture the moments. The sitting pictures we just did are adorable and she got so many in such a short period of time. The pictures are such high resolution that they enlarge beautifully.

NEWBORN LIFESTYLE SESSIONS

 
 

There is something so incredibly special about documenting your family in your own home surrounded by your own things and remembering life as it is at this exact moment. Your children are small for such a short time, and they won't always sleep with that special stuffed animal or blanket. Their rooms and your home will change with time as fast as your children do. You can have forever art to remember those little moments with your babies in the home they lived in. Remember the things that surrounded you all. By scheduling a lifestyle or documentary session, you are choosing to remember those moments that seem so small and insignificant now. Those small things become much more significant as time passes.

While many families choose to schedule a lifestyle session when they add a new member to their family, lifestyle sessions aren't exclusive to families with babies! Families and couples with children of all ages can benefit from a session like this.

Please email me if you have any questions or would like to schedule a session!

ALL NEWBORN SESSIONS (studio or lifestyle) ARE HELD ON WEEKDAY MORNINGS ONLY.
