Story Telling Maternity and Newborn Sessions
​
Hi Beautiful Mama,
​
There is nothing like waiting for the arrival of your new treasure. As a mom of 5, I understand the joy and celebration as well as the discomfort of being pregnant. I want to assure you that during your maternity session, you will be in caring hands. My goal is to create a relaxed environment for you, allowing you to enjoy this beautiful moment. I will guide you through comfortable poses and ensure your needs are met, so you can focus on cherishing these precious memories. Your happiness and well-being are my top priorities! The best time for a maternity shoot is when you are between 7 and 8 months along. Then your baby bump will have the center of attention. We can plan your maternity shoot to be in your home or in a beautiful outdoor location.
​
Newborn sessions with me are relaxed and focus on story telling. Your home is the perfect place to create incredibly meaningful and natural images that tell the story of your family. To tell the best story, all pets and people who live in the home are welcome to be involved! My approach is to give slight prompts and then capture your emotions and family as they are in that moment.. I will also make sure to document the tiny new features of your precious treasure and create beautiful heirloom images. For your convenience we will plan the time around your family's schedule on day 4-14 after birth. ​

We were fortunate enough to have Bonnie come do our in-home newborn baby/family photos. I was terrified to have a photographer come to my not-instagram-worthy home but she helped me overcome my fears and was able to take TOTALLY Instagram worthy (even better than Instagram worthy, I think!) Bonnie is so creative with her shots (avoided the spots of the house that weren't very nice to look at lol) and brought extra props just in case.
Something I also really appreciated is that she sent me a list of things to help us prepare for the photoshoot in advance. That really helped me a lot!
