I recommend booking in your second trimester. I am only able to take a limited number of sessions a month, causing my calendar to fill up quickly. I reserve weekends for maternity sessions and weekdays for newborn and baby sessions.

Newborn sessions take place in my studio in Chestermere. My studio offers everything needed for a successful, comfortable session.

All you need to bring is baby, milk - breast or bottle and a soother if baby takes one.

The reason I am only able to take a limited number of sessions a month, is to account for babies who arrive early or late. This will leave enough room in my calendar to insure your newborn will be photographed in the first 5-16 days of life. When booking in I mark your due date in my calendar, then once baby arrives we schedule a set date for the session. I will only reserve one newborn session in a single day, to guarantee my full time and attention to your newborn.

Yes, if your baby is born premature or has a stay in the NICU, we will schedule their session for when they are home and have been given approval by their doctor that they are safe to do the session .

The main reason is safety. A newborn photographer will handle your baby longer then their doctor likely will, so hiring someone who is fully trained in newborn safety and is insured is something you should not compromise on. No photo is more important than the safety of your baby.
