Maternity & Lifestyle Newborn Sessions
How It Works
Planning
No idea what location best fits the style of images you want? Dread having to plan outfits? Let me take care of it all!
With all my session types, you not only receive beautiful family photographs.
You receive stress free session planning!
Shooting
My sessions are full of joy and fun, and I encourage everyone involved to let their unique personalities shine.
The best way to capture genuine emotion is to create genuine emotion.
And my session prompts are designed to do just that!
Ordering
It is my main objective to leave each client with at least one piece of art to hang on their walls or display on their coffee table.
That is why you'll receive 2 framed 8x10 prints in addition to a 4x6 print of each digital image from your session. Albums and other upgrades are also available.

Frequently Asked Questions
1) What should we wear?
Outfit choice depends a lot on the vision you have for your session. As part of your booking process, I'll provide you with at least 3 custom wardrobe examples.
Ultimately, I find that comfort is key. It doesn't matter how beautiful the dress or chic the shirt. If you and your family are not comfortable in your clothing, it will show in your pictures.
2) When should I book?
You should book as soon as possible! Aim to schedule your session between your 32nd and 36th week. Often expecting mothers feel more comfortable during this time and the belly has generally taken a round shape.
3) What happens if we get bad weather?
Louisville weather can be hard to predict, so I will wait to call off the season until the morning of (or the night before for sunrise sessions). I keep a number of backup dates in the case of bad weather, and there is no fee to reschedule due to weather.
4)How long does it take to receive our photos?
You will receive a proofing gallery within 2 weeks of your session, and your final gallery will be delivered within 2 weeks of your proofing gallery. So a total of about 4 weeks from your sessions date.
Product orders typically are delivered within 7 days of purchase.
5) Do we have to order prints? Is there a minimum purchase agreement?
There is no minimum purchase agreement. My family and couple package includes a printed 4x6 of each digital image in your gallery and 2 framed 8x10 fine art prints. You also receive access to product upgrades and a specially priced a la carte list with my profession lab, but you are not required to purchase anything additional.
6) How does the booking Process work?
First, I will send you a few links to select a session date, sign your contract and model release, and pay your non-refundable retainer fee ($250).
Once we have taken care of the paperwork, the fun begins and we'll get started planning the details of your session!
