Luciana was 30 days new during her newborn session and traveled two hours to come see me in my newborn home studio! This is a blessing and major compliment to me and my newborn photography business. Luciana was so sweet to allow me to pose her with her individual parents and to get the desired family portrait that every family needs when they acquire a new member. We also captured some precious portraits on in props and on the beanbag.

As a Watkins Glen newborn photographer, I take into consideration, the travel time of my clients and adjust accordingly for them. I also have the family stay and view their newborn portraits following their session, so they can select and order their artwork the same day. This speeds up the turn around process and allows me to start editing immediately so mom and dad can hang them on the wall as soon as possible.
When booking your newborn photography session before birth, there is always a question of “When will we have our newborn session if the baby isn’t born yet?” As an expectant mama, you may be planning on having your baby naturally with no predetermined date of when your baby will arrive. That leaves room for much uncertainty when booking your newborn session. But that is ok. When you book your newborn session with me, before your baby’s birth, I will add you to my calendar and will not overbook for the week that you are expecting. Within two days after giving birth (while resting in the hospital or at home) shoot me a message of your blessed arrival. From there, we will schedule a date for your newborn’s photography session. Newborns are best posed and photographed within 5- 14 days of birth, so it is crucial to have your newborn photographer booked well before your baby arrives.
