Newborn Q & A
Maternity-Newborn Package
BABY TIME! We have to be flexible with our schedule of course. Usually we await for the moment you go into labor or go in to deliver the baby. We ask you to notify us when you go in & get out, so we estimate your session date. We have that first week to get the perfect poses. While your session is in progress, you will be able to view the images on our tablet to view what is captured. We then upload your images & release a copy to you privately. You then choose your preferred images to be edited. Additional images can be purchased for $10 per edited image. Usually we are able to get a great variety of images than less but every baby is different. Some are light sleepers but we don’t give up easily. Yes babies can cry at times. Which is why we offer so much time to you. We usually have edited images returned within 4-6 wks. I create a private online gallery for you to get all of your high quality digital images. This offer will include print rights so you can take your images anywhere with my permission to print.What do we do??? We provide a private room for your session. Please let me know which you prefer so we can plan accordingly for your shoot. Family session is an additional $50 fee for time & poses. When you arrive we share all of our options with our families to choose from.
Do we provide outfits? That’s up to parents. Yes we do have a great variety of outfits for babies & wraps in many colors and styles/prints. Girls have onesies, dresses, accessories & headbands. Boys have onesies, caps, and hats, props. If you have seen something in one of our photos and you know you want that pose or prop please feel free to share your vision. If you have a color or style you want let me know. If you aren’t picky we will gladly be creative for you. Let's chat!
What if we want family/sibling poses? If you would like a family or sibling poses we should be able to accomplish that for you. Please let us know prior to the session so we can plan accordingly. If you have young ones we might schedule a specific time to work with siblings first. What age are your kids?
Family photos? Usually we are able to achieve more images than less with babies, but every baby is different. Depending on the age of siblings we can plan together which part of the session would be best for siblings to take photos. Each case is different.
When can we look at photos? While your session is in progress, you are able to view the images from our tablet we take as we are taking them . But, You do not need to pick photos at this time. You have the luxury of a sneak peek.
How do I get my digital images? Once we complete the session we convert & upload images online then send them for you. Shortly after we send you the link with your original images. Your edited images should be released within 6 weeks or less. Each client has their ownprivate online gallery to view the high quality edited & enhanced digital images. This offer will include print rights so you can take your images anywhere with my permission to print. We do not sell prints, only print rights.
Baby age wise: We would love to capture the images for you, (we MUST take photos within 16 days of the baby’s delivery in order to be successful with posing). Once the baby grows past that point, it is very difficult to get them to stay in the cute poses we want for you. It’s not impossible, but we prefer this age to give you the best results possible. *If baby is older than they qualify for the $350 package above. Which is just slightly different. We may get more open eyes photos if baby is older than two weeks.I just want to make that clear about the price. That includes 12 images.😉 Are you having a boy or a girl? We have a different wraps based on the sex of the newborn.

Newborn Q&A
When should I reserve my session? I only accept a certain amount of newborn sessions each month, so reserving in your 2nd trimester is recommended. If you procrastinated, contact me asap and roll the dice doll!
When are newborn sessions done? Newborn sessions are done within the first 6-14 days of life (except for premies, which I recommend scheduling for a session 1 week after returning home from the hospital). On average, babies are 1 week. I can photograph your baby in a newborn style for up to 1 month old, but most likely there will be less variety in the photos as the older the child is, the less they sleep/cooperate during the session. If your baby is older than 1 month, I have special techniques for creative sessions for 2 months +. I have experience photographing premies as well as premie twins.
Where will the newborn session be? I’m proud to be one of the only newborn photographers in this area that will give you the choice of location. The session may be in the comfort of your own home. For in-home sessions, I will photograph your new arrival in the brightest room of your house. I bring all necessary props, blankets, hats, attire and sets. No need to clean the house up, I only need a small area to work in and I understand how chaotic things are when there is a new baby in the home. If you live further than 20 miles from San Antonio or an additional travel fee will be requested.
What do I need to do to prepare for the session? If you could time a feeding to occur around the time I arrive, that would be great! If not, that’s okay too! Have your baby undressed down to his/her diaper, and have them loosely wrapped in a blanket. Have readily available in my workspace a set of diapers, wipes and any other supplies I will need to change the baby. I gladly change diapers throughout the session to ensure baby is comfy at all times. Try NOT to bathe your baby too often prior to the session. Bathing promotes the peeling of baby’s skin. I bring all the props, blankets, baskets, wraps and hats for you to choose from. If you would like me to incorporate some of your own pieces into the session, please have those ready for me upon arrival and I will gladly include those in the photos.
Do mommy & Daddy get to be in the photos too?Yes, of course, siblings too! If you want to include grandma & grandpa, they’re welcome too. During the times your baby is most alert for the session, I will spend that time getting a variety of photos of everyone with baby. Once baby is calm, I need a very quiet, warm (no drafts!) environment to work in.
May we watch you photograph our baby? Yes, of course! I limit the audience two 2 people. I ask that you sit back, relax and watch quietly. Many parents start the session off by watching and then go relax elsewhere…even nap or pump! I have 2 kids of my own and have photographed hundreds of babies and children. I believe in a safe, open work environment where the parents can feel like they can watch me work at any time. MAY WE snap some photos of baby during the session too? Yes, but please keep it to a bare minimum. It is disruptive to my concentration and creativity if I’m constantly being interrupted by someone trying to take a photo from behind me. Do you photograph twins? Yes, of course! An additional charge applies to cover extra edit time, shoot time and an assistant. I love me some twins!
