I’m so glad you decided to book your session with me! I can’t wait to capture all of the precious memories that your family will enjoy for years to come.

Because every child is unique, I want to customize your session just for you.

The questions that follow will help me capture your child's session in a way that resonates with you and represents this special celebration.

Please feel free to answer the questions in as much detail as possible - it really helps to get to you know you and your child prior to our session.

If there is a section that doesn't apply, feel free to skip over it, and if you would prefer to chat this over by phone or in person, I am happy to do that as well!

One quick note, while you’re answering questions about what you like...feel free to add what you don’t like as well!

I can't wait for our session!

Session Information

Please refer to the "investments" section of my website for full details and session programs and pricing at www.jnicotriphotography.com
PLEASE NOTE: When choosing a photographer, it is important that your vision aligns with my style to ensure you ultimately receive the look that best meets your expectations. Please take a moment to read some important information below to confirm I am the perfect photographer for you and your family! :)

My style is organic, simple and natural, with often a bold and whimsical feel to them. I like to eliminate as much distraction as I can to keep as much of your story within the images as possible. I have a large collection of props and outfits and therefore, I will provide all items for your session (up to 1 year of age) and I do not photograph character themed sessions (such as Disney, Harry Potter, etc) due to copyright infringement. However, while everything needed for your session is provided, you are more then welcome to bring along a family heirloom to be incorporated in your session.
What is your goal for the session? To best meet your expectations and needs, it is important that I understand what it is you intend on using the images for. Please select all that apply below indicating how you plan to display the images from your little one's session.

Just imagine, years down the road when you hold the images of your child in your hands, you are going to reminiscence on all of those tiny little details that had faded in your memory over time. These images are going to take you back to that incredible bond you felt as a new mother, or remembering how soft their hair was, how the color of their eyes have changed, how chubby those squishy cheeks were, and how they had the most adorable contagious smile. Recalling those adored details are priceless because they are an essential part of your story. From one day to the next, your baby's features will change, they will learn something new, and they will reach all of those precious milestones that you will be emotional and overjoyed to watch them achieve! Don't miss out on the opportunity to capture those moments when your baby first started smiling at you, when they learned how to sit up on their own, or when they finally had the courage to take those first steps. You will never get those moments back, and they will soon be only a faded memory of the past.

As mother myself, I know that your baby is everything in the world to you, and I understand the importance of capturing all of those precious moments before you miss them. I want to ensure you have all of these treasured memories to display, love, and cherish for decades to come.

For this reason, I offer a Milestone Program that is specifically tailored to capture your baby's unique personality and are customized for each milestone during their first year of life.

Styling

My preferred styling is organic, natural and simple with minimal props and decorations in order to eliminate distractions and keep the main focus on your adorable little one. Therefore, I do not photograph "themed" setups (such as Disney, Harry Potter, etc.) and do not use super busy backdrops; I keep my props to a minimum. Included in your session fee is my "client closet" that includes a wide assortment of adorable outfits, pants, rompers, hats/bonnets/headbands for your child that will be used during your session (up to 1 year of age, and some limited outfits for ages 2+). However, while everything needed for your session is provided, you are welcome to bring along a family heirloom to be incorporated in your session, if you desire. Please feel free to provide me with any specific colors or requests you may have and I will do my very best to accommodate.
What is your VISION for the session?
