about newborn

session

~ The photo session usually takes place at your home. It is 3 - 4 hrs long to ensure that there is enough of time for feeding, soothing and changing your baby. I only book one client per day so your session is not rushed and baby has all the feeds and cuddles he/she needs.
~All the necessary props, including clothes, baskets, hats, headbands and other things provided by me.

~Since the photo shoot takes place at your home, I arrive 20-30 minutes before the photo shoot to prepare the location and props.
~Photos with parents are usually taken in the middle or at the end of the photo shoot. The rest of the time I work alone and only with the baby. If you need, for any reason, to take photographs with your parents at the beginning of the shoot, please let me know in advance. For photos with parents, you can use a maximum of two sets of clothes. 

~Usually, I bring with me the maximum amount of props that I have. Therefore, you can choose any props during the photo shoot. However, if you have any requests or would like your baby to be captured in a specific prop or background color, please let me know in advance.

Preparing for a newborn photo session

Before the photo session, prepare for the baby:
- dry and wet wipes
- spare diapers
- waterproof towel (diaper)
- pacifier
- milk mixture (if on artificial nutrition) or your milk in bottle.

- try to feed your baby well before the photo shoot so that the baby is well-fed and more likely to be calm. Remove all clothes from the baby before giving it to me (leave only the diaper and swaddle the baby).

For photos with parents: light clothes in pastel colors, clean styled hair and light makeup for mom.

And of course, great mood :) because on the day of the first photo session of your baby, we will create unique and memorable shots that will remain for a long time!

Babies over 1 month old

If for some reason you did not have time to have a photo session for your baby and he is already more than one month old, then do not worry! Call me and we will make a wonderful photo session! Perhaps there will be fewer open poses, but there will be other equally beautiful photos.

What to expect after the photo shoot

After the photo shoot, you will receive a link with preview photos within 5-10 working days. What will it contain: all family photos in color correction in full resolution, as well as ONE photo preview, where all the photos of the baby will be placed in a reduced version (you will need to choose from approximately 25-30 photos of your baby)
You will need to download all family photos and photo previews of the baby, then mark the photos for me for retouching and printing (3-4 family photos - you just need to write the numbers) and 16-17 photos of the baby (you will need to mark them directly on the preview photo ).
Then, within 10-15 working days, the photos you have chosen will be ready and sent to you. Printed photographs will be sent to you by mail within 1 month.

Additional photo retouchung is possible at a cost of $10 per photo.

Full payment is due after the photo session.

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that I do not provide raw (unedited) photographs under any circumstances.
