Newborns
Newborn sessions are best scheduled early -- typically within the first 10 days of birth. I love a simple approach with newborns, highlighting baby's sweet features and the peacefulness that surrounds them.
Our studio provides all the basic necessities for the session -- we have a wide color range of newborn wraps and props; but you are always welcome to bring along anything special you want to use. Ideas include: specific themed decor, items with baby's name, baskets, buckets, clothing, etc.
You can expect your newborn session to last up to three hours. It is important to bring along enough supplies to last for at least that amount of time. Some sessions end sooner, but timing solely depends on baby's cooperation, feeding/changing, and other factors.
Parents and siblings are always welcome to be part of baby's session.
6/7 Months Session
One of my favorite milestones to photograph -- the stage when they're smiling and laughing more, learning to sit up and interact. It's truly special!
The half-year milestone has steadily grown more popular over the years and there are tons of fun themes and ideas across the internet to explore! We love to see what you come up with to match your sweet little one's personality.
Please note: you do not have to be a Baby Steps Member to schedule a Half-Year Milestone Session.
First Birthday
First Birthday Sessions are so much fun! From balloons to cake smashes to milk or bubble baths, we want to capture it all.
Please contact our studio in advance with your theme or color palette ideas, so that we can help you bring your vision to reality.
You do not have to be a Baby Steps Member to schedule a First Birthday Session. We are happy to schedule a standalone session.
Please Note: Due to allergy concerns, it is the responsibility of the parent to provide the cake or cupcake for the smash cake (if desired) for the session. Be sure to bring extra baby wipes and a clean outfit to go home in!

How much is Baby Steps Membership and what does it include?

Please refer to all of the great detailed information above, which highlights your membership cost, what it includes, and what it doesn't!

How long does a photoshoot take?
-
Session lengths vary depending on the type of shoot. The newborn session can last up to three hours, while the 6-month session and 1-year session typically last less than an hour. The included mini session is 20 minutes.

When can I use my mini session perk?
-
The mini session included with your membership can be used at another milestone or holiday throughout baby's first year OR you can opt to use it once baby turns 2.
Mini session runs for 20 minutes, which is typically time for one outfit only. All prints and products are sold separately.
**Please note that we do not honor this mini session for character sessions, including Santa or The Easter Bunny.
-
When will I receive my photos?
-
Editing takes time to ensure the best quality. Most sessions are delivered within 2 weeks. Rush processing may be available upon request. If you are hoping to meet a specific time frame with your images, please make that information available up front.
-
Do you offer prints or just digital images?
-
We offer both! You can choose high-resolution digital files, professional prints, albums, and wall art to showcase your memories beautifully.
-
What happens if the weather is bad for an outdoor session?
-
If the weather doesn’t cooperate, we can reschedule for another day or move the session to our indoor studio location. We’ll stay in touch and make the best decision together.
-
What if I don't use all of my sessions?
-
Our Baby Steps Membership is meant specifically to highlight the milestones of Baby's First Year. If you skip a session, we unfortunately cannot honor the "perks" that come with purchasing the membership, including the three-image storyboard. Once the time frame has come and gone, we will cancel your membership (which forfeits all unused perks of the membership) and itemize the sessions/products you did use. We then offer a credit to use towards a future session or order, based on the remaining balance. This credit would expire one year from issuance.
-
Do I have to be a Baby Steps Member to have a milestone session?
-
You do not have to be a member of our our Baby Steps program to have a session for any milestone. We are happy to schedule standalone Half-Year or One-Year sessions, as well as any month of your baby's life you'd love to have captured.
