maternity & infant sessions

maternity & baby
Congratulations! Whether you're expecting your first baby or you're already an experienced parent, this is a miraculous time for you and your family. I hope you're wallowing in the joy of parenthood!
Maternity and newborn photography sessions are shot at my studio in Cincinnati, or in the comfort of your home (in the Cinicnnati and N. Kentucky areas).
I recommend trying to schedule your maternity session for before the 35th week of your pregnancy, when you can still pose comfortably. Maternity sessions can be as simple or as elaborate as you'd like, and can include your husband and/or children. Maternity sessions are usually completed in less than one hour, but can go longer if you include young children or multiple clothing changes. Simple, 45-minute sessions in my studio or gardens qualify as "Short & Sweet" sessions, and can be available at a discount. I have lots of suggestions about flattering clothing choices, styling and props. Just contact me for ideas. Don't worry about feeling like you're heavier than usual. You're supposed to be! I have lots of tricks to hide what you want hidden, and reveal only what you want to show. I've been in your shoes and know how you feel!
Generally, it is best to schedule your newborn session before your baby is two weeks old, when he or she is so tiny and young that we can really capture the size difference between parents and baby. Also, your baby will be more easily posed for the sleeping photos in the first two weeks.
Proofs from your maternity and newborn sessions will be shown simultaneously after the newborn session. (See products and pricing for further info.)
I photograph babies up to six months old (needing support to sit) in the studio. Once your baby can sit independently, we can go outside for the photo session, if you'd like.
I offer discounts for repeat clients, so if you're interested in my "Watch Me Sprout" baby plan with photo sessions every three to four months, the savings can be significant!
