Newborn twins family photo with big sister and mom and dad

When to book your newborn session…

The best time to photograph a newborn baby is when they are under two weeks of age. After two weeks babies are a little harder to settle as things like colic can start to flare up. You can contact us at any time during your pregnancy to give me an estimated due date. At that time we will make a tentative booking. When you arrive home from the hospital with your brand new baby, you will then contact us to schedule your session date and time.


Where your session is held…

Your newborn session will take place in our studio in Paxton, Illinois.


How long will your session take...

Newborn sessions can take 3-4 hours. This allows for plenty of time for feeding and comforting your new baby.


Proofs...

About 2-3 weeks after your session, we will email you with a password for your private online proofing gallery. The online gallery will remain active for 14 days. Once full payment is received your prints will be ordered; they can take 2-3 weeks for delivery and longer for canvas, books or albums. All images will be stored and archived after 60 days. Once the gallery has been closed there will be a $25 fee to upload your gallery for an additional 7 days.


Ordering...

You can order your prints during your in-person viewing session, at the studio, or by sending me an email with your selections from your online proofing gallery. Payment can be made by credit card, debit card, or cash.
