Newborn sessions are done in your home (weekday morning) and should be scheduled within the first 3 weeks after birth (when both parents are still on leave from work) and ideally should be planned before expected due date.
​

Family and/or sibling photos included

All edited photos in online gallery are chosen by the photographer

Ideas on how to dress your baby at home:
(use of personal items like quilts and wraps-your supply only-I have a Moses basket that can be used upon request)
Wraps/swaddles can be patterned for the family to coordinate around or solid (Target, Homegoods, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Copper Pearl online, Amazon, local boutique, etc)
Solid sleepers, knotted gowns, white onesies (idea store: https://katequinn.com/, https://cadenlane.com/, https://www.spearmintlove.com/ etc)
​
For the family: neutrals (whites, grays, tans, beige, ivory) are really great, especially indoors with some pops of pattern/color in the wraps or a younger child.
