​

Newborn sessions are best scheduled BEFORE baby is born! Contact me towards the end of your second trimester to start planning your session. That gives us plenty of time to chat about your vision for your session and allows me time to acquire anything for your session that I don't already have in my collection. 

​

If you did wait until late in your pregnancy or already have a baby in your arms, DON'T WORRY!! I always leave room for newborn sessions and will happily schedule your family!
