To initiate the process of booking a newborn session with me, the first step is to reach out through email or phone call, though I also make an effort to check messages on Instagram and Facebook. Let's have a conversation! We can arrange a phone consultation or a meeting at the studio, whichever suits your schedule best.
1. Say Hello
2. Meet up!
I'm excited to be part of your maternity journey! Whether we meet at my studio or virtually, we'll discuss outfit options, including my beautiful collection of maternity dresses. I have quite the selection of beautiful maternity dresses. I'll guide you through selecting a date, usually between 28-34 weeks, that suits you best. We'll also consider your budget and the possibility of a payment plan. To secure your spot, simply pay the retainer, and I'll be ready to capture these precious moments with you.
3. ask me Anything
Once you've successfully booked your session, paid your retainer and selected your date, what comes next? Sometimes it is nothing, however sometimes it is us going back and forth about your session. I love staying in touch with my maternity mamas and providing assistance whenever they need it. Whether it's helping you choose outfits for your family, providing directions for the upcoming shoot, or making adjustments due to unpredictable weather, I'm here to lend a hand. I want you to feel comfortable reaching out to me via text during regular daytime hours because I genuinely want to help make this experience as smooth as possible for you. So, please don't hesitate to get in touch whenever you need any support. I'm here for you!
Session Day
Get ready for the exciting part! Trust me, it's a blast for both of us. I understand that photo sessions can sometimes be stressful, but my goal is to ensure that you have a fantastic time. Believe me, the initial five minutes might feel a bit nerve-wracking, but after that, it's all about having a relaxed and enjoyable experience, just like spending time with an old friend. I have a knack for being delightfully dorky during my sessions, so you'll be in great company. Together, we'll hunt for those beautiful pockets of light and capture images that you'll absolutely love.
5. your photographs
Around 1-2 weeks after your photo session, we'll arrange a meeting either at the studio or through a Zoom call. During this time, you'll have the opportunity to review and select your favorite photos from a gallery of 40+ lightly touched-up images available for purchase. If you're interested in wall art, we'll discuss the options and designs that best suit your preferences. Additionally, if you'd like custom announcements, we'll explore ideas together. Your final purchases will be made during this session, and once that's done, I'll begin working on your order. Please allow approximately 4-6 weeks for the completion of your session.
