Here are some tips for the session:

*Please make sure to bring extra bottles of formula and/or be prepared to feed baby. It could be multiple times during the session.

*Please try your best to keep baby awake for at least 30 minutes before the session. Try giving them a bath and putting lotion on their skin.

*For siblings make sure to clean their face of all dirty and noses too.

*I may bribe siblings with a Dum Dum sucker. Please let me if you prefer me not to.

*If you know what makes your small child smile please tell me so we can get the shots quickly while they are in a good mood.

*Stay positive for the session. If we are happy the kids will be happy.

*For clothing choice - No neon colors or busy patterns please, as they do NOT photograph well. . Newborn will be wrapped with a coordinating color wrap.

*The studio will be warm! Please bring your own beverages.

Full Newborn Session : We will start the session with family and sibling poses, and then move to parent poses. After Parent poses, I ask that all siblings are taken out of the studio for the newborn portion of the session. This will ensure that the studio is quite and calm to pose the newborn. I can let you know when I am about ready to be done with the session for you to call your ride if needed.
