Capturing Newborns is an Honor
Capturing new life is an incredible honor and joy for me. Whether this is your first baby or fourth, I'm humbled that you are considering me as your Newborn Photographer. I remember the newborn days (and long nights) very well and want this to be a stress-free experience for you. You have enough on your plate - my goal is to help you preserve memories of this special season and make the day of session as easy as possible.
After You Book...
After booking, you will receive a Newborn Session Guide with lots of helpful information to make the day of your session go as smoothly as possible. We will use your estimated due date as a placeholder, but will not officially schedule your session until baby arrives. You will simply text or email me to let me know when baby is here and we will officially schedule your newborn session. During the session, I will make sure to get shots of the entire family, mom & baby, dad & baby, siblings & baby and baby by his/herself.
No Need to Worry
Whether this is your first baby or not, do not stress about anything. My Guide will provide some tips and tricks to help ensure a happy baby, but we will follow his/her lead. There will be plenty of time for diaper changes, feedings or soothing if needed. If brothers or sisters will be part of your session, please don't worry about them either. I know this is a transition for them too and sometimes they are on board and sometimes they're not feeling it. Being a mom myself and working with kids quite a bit, I have a few tricks up my sleeve to help include siblings and invite them to be a willing participant. Leave the directing up to me and you can relax!

FAQ
01. when do newborn sessions take place?
Newborn sessions typically take place within the first 2-3 weeks of life. With that said, I understand that isn't always possible. When it is though, I recommend booking your newborn session between 12-20 months to ensure availability during the ideal window of time.
02. where do newborn sessions take place?
Most newborn sessions take place in your home using the prettiest naturally lit spots. Other options include a local studio in Edmond for an additional $150 to cover studio rental fees or even outside during warmer months. If you choose to have your session take place in your home and you live outside of the Edmond/OKC metro, a $50 travel fee will be added.
03. How long is a newborn session?
Newborn sessions typically are between 60-90 minutes long. I understand what it is like to have a newborn, whether it be the adjustment of a first baby or the third. We will follow baby's lead so this timeframe gives us plenty of time for feeding, changing or soothing breaks. The Newborn Guide that I will provide you also has several tips on ways to prepare and maximize our time together.
