How far along do I need to be for a maternity session?

It is ideal that we see you for your session between 28-34 weeks.If you have exceeded this timeframe and need accommodations, get in touch.

Do you offer digital images also or just prints?

We offer digital bundles as well as prints and packages.

How old does my baby need to be for a newborn session?

The best time for us to see your baby will be between 5-14 days old. We usually book your due date while you are still expecting as a tentative date until baby’s arrival. We can make special accommodations for babies 14-28 days old due to religion and/or unforeseen events after delivery. Premies we base their session appointment off of their gestational due date/age.

Can my significant other be a part of my maternity session?

Absolutely! We encourage it, and if mommy to be has other children she would like to include, we can absolutely make it work. During your phone consultation we will go over these key details so we can have the perfect session planned out for you.
