T h e   D e t a i l s :

 

  • Newborn lifestyle sessions are typically about 2 hours, either taking place at your home within the first 2 weeks after birth or before being discharged from the hospital (First 48 sessions). Coming Home and 4th Trimester/Postpartum sessions take place at home. All baby sessions capture the tiny, fresh details of your brand new baby as well as interactions with family members.

  • Beautiful Belly Story sessions are 1 hour either at home or at another location of your choice and focus on the beauty of pregnancy either in the context of your home/family life (lifestyle), unposed and authentic (documentary) or as emotive portraits in natural surroundings (fine art organic). Your choice. The purpose of this session is to create art that celebrates the beauty of you growing new life and brings you right back to those days with your baby bump.

  • All images and video clips are hand-edited for quality and consistency in a mix of color and black and white, with images presented in a private online viewing gallery. Each collection includes high resolution digital files.

  • All sessions require a $500 non-refundable retainer.

  • The balance (your session fee + state sales tax if applicable) is due by 37 weeks for births or one month prior to other sessions. Zero-interest flexible payment plans are available to help finance your art.   

  • Travel sessions are available for maternity, newborn, and family sessions. Travel fees apply to sessions >25 miles from 22003. Please inquire for details.

  • Some session fees and product prices are subject to state sales tax.
