At Our Portrait Studio
We offer fine art newborn portraits in the comfort of our beautiful home studio. We also offer our Signature Portrait Session at the your home as well for an additional fee for clients who love all of the studio-style newborn poses for birth announcements and wall art, but additionally desire to capture a variety of lifestyle baby and family portraits that incorporate the nursery and meaningful settings within the home. We will bring along portable lighting equipment, blankets and accessories to set up a studio in your home for the “classic” posed newborn portraits. What To Wear Clothing is a key element for beautiful, timeless portraits. Babies are cutest in their bare bottoms. We have our own selection of blankets, wraps, bonnets and dainty headbands, but we recommend shopping on Etsy.com if you have a particular accessory in mind. You can search for “newborn photography props,” and you’ll find LOTS of adorable options. As for parents, we love skin-on-skin for intimate newborn portraits. A lace camisole or a strapless dress for Mommy. A bare chest or fitted button-down shirt for Daddy. We recommend simple, classic apparel that reflects your style. Neutrals and creams with touches of pastels for a soft, gentle feel. Your Welcome Packet will provide lots of inspiration, but in the meantime, you can view some of our favorite outfits here: NEWBORN STYLE GUIDE Artistically Edited Art takes time! But rest assured, it’s worth the wait. For every minute we spend together with you, we spend hundreds more behind the scenes to make your portraits and overall experience exceptional. Following your Newborn Portrait Session, we carefully compare the hundreds of images from your session to select the best ones from each concept — based on facial expressions, posing, lighting, sharpness, background, and overall appeal. These final images are each individually processed and enhanced into a true work of art. You will receive your private online gallery of beautifully edited newborn and family portraits within 3-4 weeks of your session to make your order selections. You’re of course welcome to share your gallery with family and friends. Displaying Your Portraits We believe in tangible artwork for your home, as well as digital files for archiving. We offer a curated collection of the highest quality products, from keepsake albums to various custom wall art displays to complement any home décor. Adding a family member is a momentous occasion. Welcoming your newborn into the world will be one of the most miraculous events in your life. The heirloom quality of our products ensures that your newborn portraits will be enjoyed for generations!

Scheduling
It’s never too early to book! Newborn portraits are ideally captured within the first 4-14 days of life, when your baby will be sleeping deeply and curling up naturally for those precious newborn poses. The exact timing depends on a number of factors that we will take into consideration once your baby has been born. We understand that these first few weeks are unpredictable, and although we can no longer capture some of the flexible poses from those early days, we still welcome babies at a few weeks old for in-home lifestyle newborn sessions. We only book a limited number of newborn sessions per month to ensure availability around your due date. We offer sessions on weekday mornings, when babies are at their sleepiest. Husbands are welcome to join us on their lunch break if they are already back to work. If you require a weekend date for a Signature Portrait Session, please let us know at the time of booking. How long will your session last? Newborn photography sessions generally last around two hours. There is plenty of time for nursing, soothing, and lots of cuddles. We strive to create a relaxed and peaceful environment, and our priority is always your comfort and the safety of your newborn. These sessions are delicate, and we patiently take the time to perfect each pose. Our gentle and detailed approach allows us to capture those precious moments that become the most beautiful, meaningful portraits. We also have a 3hour and 4 hour session available.
