The best time to book in your newborn session is while you are still pregnant. All I do at the time of booking is put your due date month into my calendar and then you get in touch once you have had to your baby (ideally in the first 48 hours) to book in the exact day and time. I only take on a certain amount of newborn sessions each month so it allows me to cater for early and late arrivals.
Newborns sessions are best done in the first 2 weeks from birth as after this time they are more sensitive to touch and are more alert which makes it harder to get the sleepy relaxed newborn images. In saying that though I have had older babies be absolutely perfect for their session as well so please don’t worry if you have found me just after that first two week time frame. We can still get some beautiful images of your baby. The all wrapped up session is great for older babies.
All I require at the time of your booking is a $100 non refundable deposit/ booking fee which will secure your session.
You will receive a sneak peek on my Facebook page of your session (optional). Your proofing gallery will be sent to you within 7 – 10 days and I will then edit your chosen images within 1 – 3 weeks and they will be sent to you via digital download.
Prints and products may take longer and will need to be picked up from my studio in Mornington.
