the experience

While I do not offer the traditional posed style of newborn photography, I love capturing lifestyle photos of parents and babies at my studio or your home!

Sessions are always planned for daytime hours to ensure that the best possible natural lighting is available. I'll photograph a combination of your sweet baby alone and with loved ones - including you as parents and any siblings.

These sessions are relaxed and unhurried. We’ll take your baby's lead on what they need, so that there is time for feeding & changing breaks and nothing feels rushed. I also provide outfits for baby in case you'd like to choose from my newborn closet (see examples below!)

Newborn closet

If you'd like to take the stress of choosing outfits off your plate, you can leave your baby's outfit to me! I've been gathering a beautiful neutral closet for babies and am always adding new pieces. That said, if you have an outfit you love, you can absolutely use that! I'll always send over a what to wear guide before the session to help with choosing outfits too.

newborn session

My newborn sessions are similar to the style of my family sessions, but we'll also leave room for photos of your sweet baby alone. Sessions can take place at my studio or your home and are booked within the first 6 weeks.

Maternity session

Typically scheduled around the 28-34 week mark, maternity sessions can include you & your partner, along with your other kids or pets awaiting the arrival of your newest family member, or they can be just to celebrate you! If you book a newborn session with me, I have an option where you can bundle and save by adding on a maternity session.

faq

1. WHEN CAN I EXPECT the PHOTOS AFTER OUR SESSION?

After your session, I will deliver your photos via an online gallery within 2-4 weeks of your session date. Thank you so much in advance for your patience in this process! I take my time handpicking and fine tuning each and every image so that every photo you receive will be up to my standards.

2. HOW DO WE PRINT OUR PHOTOS?

To print your photos, you can easily order professional quality prints, albums and gifts right from your online gallery! My sessions always include a print release which means you are welcome to print your photos as many times as you'd like, wherever you'd like, for your personal use.

3. WHAT IS YOUR EDITING POLICY? WILL YOU PHOTOSHOP (FILL IN THE BLANK)?

I personally edit each & every image to enhance the beauty that’s already there & will retouch anything that would not normally be there (like a skin blemish, bruise, etc.). If there is anything you are worried about showing up in your final images, like patches of red skin, etc. please let me know, and I can take special care in editing these areas. Note: I do not edit watch tan lines or tan lines of any kind - so keep this in mind in the summertime. :)

4. DO YOU Offer SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT TO WEAR FOR SESSIONS?

Yes! I know choosing outfits can be difficult and I want to make this experience as stress-free as possible for you! Upon booking, I will send over a what-to-wear guide to help ease any outfit related stress.

5. DO YOU Have any indoor spaces we can use?

Yes! My studio space is located in Duluth. It has white walls, simple furniture and beautiful natural light for photos! Because of the limited space, this is for families with little ones (up to 6 people total).

6. DO YOU offer mini sessions?

I’m currently offering mini sessions on a few select dates each year! These sessions are just what they sound like — mini versions of my full sessions. They are shorter in length, include a small batch of photos and come at a discounted rate. I choose the locations for these ahead of time, based on what’s best for the season! (If you prefer to choose your own location, one of my lifestyle sessions may be a better choice for you.)

7. can we reschedule if the weather is bad?

Yes! Because the weather can change so frequently in Duluth, we'll make the call on the day of our session if we need to reschedule. I'll always reschedule for rain and / or strong wind.

8. What if we need to cancel our session?

I understand life is busy and things happen! In order to provide the best scheduling options for my clients, my 50% retainer fee is non-refundable as it saves room on my calendar for you and keeps me from booking other sessions. Depending on the situation, we can always look at rescheduling though!
