Maternity & Newborn Portraits
Pregnancy comes with a myriad of feelings and emotions.
By the end you are anxious and excited to meet your new blessing.
When newborns make their grand entrance, they show us each and every day how time goes by so fast!
Making time to capture those fleeting moments is a testament to how amazing life is.
Before
In preparation for your session, we sit down together in person, over the phone, or on a video call.
During this consultation we talk over your dreams for your dream session. We go over locations, outfits, scheduling, props, hair styles, make-up, and all of the fun of going over all the wonderful ideas that tell the story of your expanding family.
If you want to go to multiple locations, wear multiple outfits, and have family, friends, or pets we can do all of that. These are what we talk about during our consultation
During
We meet up at our agreed upon time and location, and the outfit choice we agreed upon. I will typically arrive earlier in order to check out the flow of the location. After you arrive, we look over all of the props, outfits, friends/family, and anything else we talked about during the consultation.
After we talk over the flow of the session we start with generic posing. This checks off the easiest box early on and sets the tone for everything moving forward. It helps me show you how to pose and see how directions are going. When you are familiar with direction and poses come easy, then we can move on to the fun and dynamic images that make each session uniquely your own.
Creating these dynamic images allows us to really dig into custom, beautiful, sensitively tender pieces of art that you will cherish for a lifetime.
After
Once we wrap up the session we talk over the expected turnaround time to the image selection. This is where I lightly edit a select few images that I like the most, and then we sit down together to talk as a team about what images stand out the most to you.
After that point we talk about what images you want printed out. Do you want a large print to hang on their bedroom wall? What about a collage of images printed on metal or a framed series of 3 images to send to the grandparents? Do you want an album to stay at home well after graduation? How about announcements? We go over the printing choices and all printed images will be included in the digital gallery.
Don't let this time slip away
