FAQ

When to book your newborn photo session?

The best time to photograph a newborn baby is when they are under two weeks of age. Ideally from 5 to 14 days old. After two weeks babies are a little harder to settle and things like colic and baby acne can start to flare up. It is best that you contact me during your pregnancy and give me an estimated due date to schedule your tentative booking. After you arrive home from hospital with your brand new baby you can contact me to arrange a suitable day and time for your photo session.

Will I have any guidance on what to do before the photo session so it runs smoothly?

Absolutely! I am more than happy to walk you through and answer any questions you might have. Before the session you will know exactly what you can do on your part to make sure that your baby’s first photo session runs smoothly and stress free for both of you. And remember I am here to answer any questions and help you with whatever you might need to create a beautiful stress-free experience for you. I will walk you through the whole process and I will gladly help you to feed, change and soothe the baby during the photo session. I know you will probably be sleep deprived after sleepless nights so you can just relax back on my comfortable couch and just watch me do my magic. My goal is not only to create a tangible art for your home. My goal is also that you as a mom are relaxed and happy throughout the whole process.

Do I need to bring anything with me?

No, I have plenty of props, wraps and outfits for you to choose from. We will discuss them beforehand so it’s all ready to go on your Photo Session day.

When can I see my images and order my products?

At the end of the photo session we will schedule the time and date for your Reveal/Ordering appointment. Normally it is scheduled within 2-3 weeks after your Session. On that day you’ll see your images and will be able to choose your products. Once full payment is received your prints will be ordered. They can take up to 3-4 weeks for delivery. As soon as they arrive to my studio you will be notified of that and we’ll coordinate a pick up date.
