As a mother of two beautiful boys, I have a real soft spot in my heart for expecting parents and their wee-ones!
As with all of my portrait work, I take an 'unposed' approach to Pregnancy and Newborn Sessions. Aiming to capture how this pivotal chapter of your life truly feels-- raw, emotive, and authentic-- instead of relying on props and awkward posing. Pregnancy and Infant sessions are shot outdoors, in the Client's home right here in the West Kootenays, or in my styled studio in downtown Trail, BC. Be prepared to move, get dirty, and be yourself. |
When are Pregnancy sessions typically done?
Ideally around 31-35 weeks into the pregnancy.
When should i do the 'infant' part of my package?
Most clients prefer to follow their pregnancy session with a newborn session. However, I understand if you might prefer a more 'posed'/studio photographer for that session. Or! Perhaps your baby will be born and you won't feel like having photos done after all! Both are totally ok! That is why I give my clients the option to do their 'infant' session any time in baby's first year of life. Simply book it with me 4-6 weeks in advance.
But remember! After 1 year your package 'expires' so be sure to get it done within that first year.

an in-home newborn session? what if my house isn't a showhome?
Very few people live in show homes! All I need you to do is declutter the 2-3 spots in your home that have the best natural window light and we will focus our session(s) in those places only. Easy!
I also have a beautiful, natural light studio space (which is styled to look like a home) that I offer to clients free of charge. If you would prefer to shoot in my studio, just say the word!

How many people can attend the session(s)?
Max 6. Immediate family members only.
But remember, the expecting parents will be the primary focus of the maternity session. I am happy to include older siblings for a few photographs, but that belly is the real star of the show!
For 'infant' sessions, the baby is our primary subject, with parents and older siblings being secondary.

What should we wear?
Once you book your package, I am happy to send you my styling information to help you plan the perfect outfits. Also! Please let me know if you'd like to see my ever-growing Client Closet!
if I don't know when exactly my baby will be born, how can I book a newborn session?
Babies have a habit of being born whenever it suits them, and that's ok! Simply send me an email immediately upon baby's arrival. The more notice you can give me the better, as I will have my own childcare to arrange. With a bit of flexibility on your part, it should be no trouble finding a time in baby's first 2 week of life to do a newborn session.
