THE CREATION FEE

No makeup or products are included with this fee. A non-refundable $100 Session Retainer is to be paid at the time of contract signing in order to secure your place on the calendar (and will be credited toward your Creation Fee).

Newborns are not easy to handle and photograph, and require knowledge in what works safely for baby. Please know that I’ve mentored with some of the best photographers in the area and am constantly learning through continuing education opportunities. I also am vaccinated against major childhood illnesses such as whooping cough, and my home is a causal and relaxing environment where most parents end up taking a nap on the sofa.

Outdoor Newborn Session Add-On: $75 session fee; images will be included with your newborn gallery
