Carissa did a wonderful job with our newborn photos! She was flexible with the scheduling, which is so helpful when it comes to having a newborn. She found the best places in our home to capture great lighting and memories. I'm sure we'll hire Carissa again!

Where do we shoot the home photos?
Lead me to the Light! Let your intentional design show through. We often start in a living room space facing a window if possible.
The nursery is a great location for both family and tiny baby shots maybe during a diaper change. Often the master suite or other suitable bedroom works well for super close snuggly family photos.
Did I mention do NOT worry about tidying up your spaces? I promise we will adjust as we go along!
How Should I prepare and what should we wear?
Do not clean your house!
LET ME REPEAT...
Srsly don't stress about tidying up for these sessions! We love a newborn in a simple tiny onesie.
Your family can dress as casual or dressed up as you are comfortable. Often folks opt to go barefoot since we are in your home!
Can I book a mini newborn session?
NO!
There's just no way to talk a newborn into capturing all the sweet soft moments in a short stressful session.
TRUUUUUST me. We want to follow the baby's lead and take our time. Newborn In-Home sessions take about 90 minutes in my experience. We stop and change a diaper or feed the baby if we need to. I ask you to plan on at least 2 hours total.
Can siblings or pets be in photos?
YES!
Of Course! It's helpful if you can arrange to have a friend or grandma around to help play with little siblings between their time to shine.
And it's TOTALLY fine if a sibling isn't thrilled being in photos... we go with the flow and try to avoid worrying about 'perfection'.
I ask y'all to please bring along a friend to help wrangle dogs at Maternity Sessions outdoors.
How soon after the baby is born should I schedule?
FLEXIBLE!
That's the only thing you need to know. I suggest scheduling your session 6-14 days after birth. As a mother of 3 and grandma to 2 sweet grandbabies and I understand the chaos after a newborn! I shoot on weekday mornings at 10AM at your home.
However I've shot 'newborns' all the way up to 2 months old! They're still tiny!
