"I can’t say enough amazing things about Katerina. She did my maternity shoot and also my infant photoshoot. I had a c-section, and Katerina was so kind and considerate. She helped me up to the studio. She is also a baby whisperer, . I was worried my little boy would end up crying and that it would be hard to take the photos, but she was so gentle and calm. He slept through the whole thing, and I’m still amazed!" Tanya
Frequently asked questions:
When is the best time to schedule a newborn photography?
The best time to schedule a newborn session is within the first three weeks days of life, as babies tend to be more sleepy and easier to pose during this time. However, I have a lot of experience with babies at the age of 4-8 weeks old.
When shall I book a newborn session?
I would recommend contacting me in your second trimester, especially if you're planning a Maternity and Newborn photo session (I do have a special deal for that!). I am usually fully booked two to three months in advance.
How long does a newborn photo shoot typically last?
A newborn session can last anywhere from 1 to 4 hours, depending on the needs of the baby and the complexity of the poses and setups. The time will be determined based on the chosen package.
What should I bring to the newborn session?
You should bring everything your baby needs, including diapers, wipes, formula or breast milk, a pacifier, and any special blankets or toys you want to include in the photos.
Can siblings and parents be included in the newborn photography pictures?
Yes, siblings and parents can be included in the photos. We will discuss the style and poses during our planning call.
How should I dress my baby for the newborn session?
It's best to dress your baby in simple, comfortable clothes that are easy to take on and off. Avoid clothes with too many buttons or snaps, as they can be time-consuming to remove during the session. I provide everything that you need for the session, including outfits, hats, headbands, decorations, baskets, posing fabrics, and swaddles. If you have any special prop outfit you want to bring, please let me know, and I will plan on it.
What if my baby doesn't cooperate during the baby session?
Don't worry! Newborns can be unpredictable and sometimes a little fussy. I have nine years of experience with close to 600 babies photographed. My level of expertise allows me to overcome obstacles and work around your baby's needs. I will use my soothing and swaddling techniques to keep your baby comfortable during the session. I also provide a calm, warm environment with white noise.
What to wear for the family newborn pictures?
When it comes to choosing what to wear for family photography pictures in a studio, there are a few tips to keep in mind:
- Coordinate colors: Choose a color scheme that coordinates well with each other without being too matchy-matchy. Try to pick 2-3 colors that complement each other and add a pop of color.
- Avoid busy patterns: Avoid wearing clothes with busy patterns or loud graphics, as they can be distracting in the photos.
- Dress appropriately: Make sure to dress appropriately for the occasion and location. Consider the style that you are looking for.
- Keep it simple: Stick to simple and classic outfits that won't go out of style too quickly. This will ensure your pictures remain timeless.
- Accessorize: Consider adding accessories like hats, scarves, or jewelry to add a touch of personality and interest to your outfits.
Remember, the most important thing is to choose clothes that make you and your family feel comfortable and confident.
Do you provide in-home newborn photography?
Yes, most of the at-home sessions are lifestyle. A travel fee might apply.
When will we get our newborn pictures?
You will be reviewing your portraits during the reveal appointment approximately a week after the session. During that time, you will choose the favorites of your newborn photos that will be retouched for your final gallery. The final gallery will be ready within a week after our revel appointment.
Do you offer any print products?
Yes, most of my packages include both digital and print copies of your portraits. Additionally, the highest quality albums, larger prints, wall art, as well as mini pocket accordion albums.
Do I receive digital files?
Yes, you will receive digital files of your final purchased portraits. Unedited, not purchased proofs are not provided.
