COVID 19
I am asking that all clients remove shoes upon arrival and wash hands. If you or anyone in your family have been in contact with someone with Covid 19 or who has a cough/fever or if you feel unwell (even mildly) before your session, please contact me as soon as possible to reschedule. I understand this may be an inconvenience, but it is of utmost importance that I do not allow any virus/illness into my home studio at this time due to the vulnerable condition of my other clients and my home. All props and accessories that come in contact with the baby are washed/sanitized before and after each session. Thank you for helping me keep my studio a clean and safe environment for myself and all of my clients. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. I am not allowing anyone other than the parents and siblings to attend the session. I will be wearing a mask at all times during your session.

Newborn Session Details & Prep
Prep details are to help make your session runs smoothly. The room will be kept very warm so please dress accordingly. I will provide all of the outfits, wraps and accessories that we will use so no need to bring anything at all. All outfits and accessories are sanitized before and after each use. Our goal is to have baby very sleepy when you arrive. If you have children, I will be starting the session with family/sibling poses. Once we are finished it is best to make arrangements for your little ones to leave or have dad take them to nearby park. I will then move onto to just baby. I will use a couple different backdrops, outfits and wraps and then move to a couple props using either a little bed, basket or bucket. If there are no siblings we will end the session with family poses. Please wear neutrals such as white, cream, grays or black. No patterns please. I will have bottled water and some light snacks but feel free to bring anything you would like.
Give baby a full feeding right before you arrive for your session. Bring an extra bottle for any additional feedings that may be needed. Breastfeeding is welcome as well.

Have baby in a zip up onesie or something easy to remove. Please do not double layer clothing. Removing one layer makes it easier to keep baby asleep.

I Agree
If your baby is gassy please make sure to bring Gripe Water or anything else you use to help relieve the baby
*
I Agree
Bring a Pacifier. This is super important. It will only be used if the baby won't settle and to get baby into pose. Some moms may be against the use of pacifiers, or worried about nipple confusion, but rest assured that the short amount of time that we may use it will not have a negative effect on nursing. It does not stay in the baby's mouth for long periods of time. A few seconds here or there is all we need to calm the baby. If we do not have a way to soothe the baby while posing, we may not be able to accomplish as much during the session.
