NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY

Whether you are a new parent or a seasoned parent who has it all figured out, one thing you have in common is knowing that babies grow fast! The minute they are born, they start changing so quickly. I love the tiny details of a newborn baby, like their perfect little fingers and toes, cute button noses, peach fuzz hairs on their heads or a full head from birth, furrowed eyebrows, first smiles, and chubby cheeks. The images I take will undoubtedly be cherished by your family forever because your baby will never be that tiny again.

we are grateful to just peachy for accommodating us at the last minute. Erika went above and beyond, especially to meet our needs. This was our first professional baby photography session. The outfits blended with the selected backdrops and we loved the close ups. Erika's experience to comfort and to soothe our newborn also helped with a smooth session. We look forward to future sessions and events.

newborn SESSION QUESTIONS

when is the best time to book a newborn session?

The best time to book your newborn session is as soon as possible after you find out you are expecting. Most people like to book sometime in the second semester. The second semester is a good time because you have plenty of time to plan for your session and ensure a place in my schedule as I only schedule a limited number of babies a month to ensure the best service to my clients. I do often have clients contacting me after their baby is born and do my best to fit them into my schedule.

when is the best time to photograph my baby?

Ideally I like to photograph newborns between 1-3 weeks old. The younger they are, the more flexible and sleepy they are in general. Each baby is different of course. This allows for more curled up poses and more time asleep. Sometimes I do get awake baby shots and they are a fun mix with the sleeping ones. I can get beautiful portraits at any age and have scheduled newborn sessions up to 2 months old. For older infant photos, babies are usually wrapped up to stay cozy and sleepy.

can you photograph my baby in my home?

I love to photograph babies in their homes! This is called a Lifestyle Newborn session and is different than the posed images above on this page. A Lifestyle Newborn session takes place in your home with no backdrops, lighting or props. It is very natural and we use your home as a backdrop along with window lighting. I love to focus on the connection with Mom, Dad and siblings if they apply. I only book a small number of these sessions a month as scheduling is a little limited with lighting times. Send me a message for more details about getting baby photos taken in your home.

do you give a discount if I book a maternity session with my newborn session?

I do offer discounts for multiple sessions booked at once. The discounts start at $25 and depend on which sessions you are booking. For more savings during baby's first year, see our Baby Club options.
