FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I FEEL REALLY AWKWARD AND NERVOUS ABOUT GETTING MY PHOTOS TAKEN. IS THIS A PROBLEM?

Heck no! Most of my clients feel the same way—you’re definitely not alone! I’ve been photographing families for over 10 years, and I’ll guide you every step of the way. You won’t have to worry about what to do—I’ll help you relax, feel comfortable, and before you know it, you’ll actually be having fun!

ARE YOU INSURED?

Yes! I have insurance specifically designed for portrait photographers, plus backup camera equipment just in case.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO PHOTOGRAPH MY NEWBORN?

The ideal time for newborn photos is within the first 14 days after birth. During this period, babies are typically sleepier and still have that fresh newborn curl. After two weeks, they become more alert and may develop things like colic or baby acne.

That said, if your baby is a little older—don’t stress! Beautiful newborn photos can still be captured beyond this window as you can see in our post here .

ARE YOU VACCINATED?

Absolutely! I do everything I can to protect my littlest of clients. I get the flu shot each year and the whooping cough booster every 5 years. I also have the COVID vaccine and boosters.

WHAT IF MY BABY CRIES THE ENTIRE SESSION?

Rest assure! Clients call me the “Baby Whisperer”. Using our tips and tricks, your baby will sleep for most of the session.

There is some preparation that goes in beforehand and I’ll guide you on exactly what to do. It’s really easy to follow I promise!

Your session will be calm, relaxing and fun! Definitely not stressful!

It will be the perfect opportunity for you to rest and recover.

HOW LONG WILL THE NEWBORN SESSION GO FOR?

Typically a newborn session runs for 2-3 hours. If your baby is super settled and sleepy, the session may only take 1-1.5 hours. If your baby is unsettled it could take 3.5 hours.

WHAT IS THE SESSION LIKE ON THE DAY OF THE SHOOT?

Sessions are very relaxed and I like to ensure you and baby are happy and comfortable. I take my time and give your baby any breaks they need to ensure the session is chilled and baby is content. Relax, even nap while I take care of your baby for a while!

WHY INVEST WITH ME WHEN THERE ARE CHEAPER OPTIONS?

I completely understand that not everyone has a photography budget that will allow them to work with me.

My prices accurately reflect the high level of quality, care, and experience you’ll get from working with me.

I take great care with each client I work with to ensure an amazing experience throughout the entire process. It’s like having your own personal designer for your home to make your vision become a reality! It’s my personal guarantee that your experience will be like no other!

I’d absolutely love to work with you if you are able to stretch your budget to make it work, but if not I completely understand and wish you the best. Please let me know as I love to recommend other photographers when suitable.
