Life moves quickly. Ask any set of parents with a newborn, and they’ll fast agree with you. Because those first days, months and years go by so fast, it’s important to capture each milestone so you can keep those special memories with you forever. Our exclusive Baby’s First Year Collection was born out of the desire to create a beautiful and simple package that includes a session for each milestone, spanning the first year of your new child’s precious life. It’s an entire year of memories designed just for you, and all you have to do is show up for it!
We start off with a personalized maternity session, capturing the way that your body has beautifully transformed to reflect the new life growing within you. Whether you’re becoming a mother for the first time or for the fourth, your maternity photographs will become treasured heirlooms, representing everything wonderful about those nine months before you met your newborn. A baby belly is something to celebrate and commemorate, and our exclusive collection has a focus on capturing you in the best and most authentic way, just as you want to be captured. It could be just the two of us, or it could include Dad, siblings and close family members too. It’s your session, and you get to decide exactly how you want it to be! Because it’ll be our first session together, you’ll also get a complimentary session gift we coin the ‘ice breaker’ that also includes professional makeup and styling. It gives us an opportunity to get to know each other first before the documentary stages that follow.
Once your child is born, we’d like to have their newborn session preferably between the first 1-3 weeks of life, and the sooner the better. Newborns grow so fast, so to capture how tiny and gorgeous they are just after being born, it’s best to act quickly. Of course, the whole session process is designed to take the stress off your shoulders, and you have a few options to choose from! If your baby is fussy, or if you’re wanting the whole family in the shot, then our Lifestyle Newborn Session is the perfect way to go. We’ll capture your new bundle of joy in natural poses, with a focus on natural light. Our Posed Newborn Sessions are baby-led, which means waiting for your newborn to fall fast asleep and gently and artfully posing them in a way that mimics their natural movements.
Six-month sessions are exciting and fun ones, where your bundle of joy is the center of our attention. Our Sitter Session is focused on your active child, where they’re sitting up and crawling all over the place. Some prefer to have them photographed in the buff, while others love to dress them up in a cute outfit for the camera, so it’s up to you to decide! These sessions usually run quicker, but are still crafted with the utmost care.
We’ll wrap it up with a final One Year Session, where we’ll really be able to capture who your toddler is growing up to be. Because we’ve spent a whole year getting to know each other, and your baby is so used to working with us, we can curate a detail-heavy session that’s totally personalized for your child. We’ll be able to do that in a shorter amount of time, and with a personal attachment and care for you and your budding family. At the end of the session, we’ll create your art collage, crafted from the images captured from your baby’s three sessions over the course of the year. It’ll show all of the hard work we’ve done together in the most beautiful of ways! You’ll have it, along with all the hand-retouched photos from each session, to display throughout your home, to remember all of those fleeting and wonderful moments in the life of your child. The best thing about this collection investment is that you get it all. No mulling over this or that image and you’ll also have the opportunity to add even more of what you love! When you reserve a baby plan you are committing to working with us for a whole year while we block out our calendar. In turn, we are committed to delivering you nothing but beautiful legacy imagery documenting this journey.
Get ahead of it all, and sign up for our Baby’s First Year Collection, so you can forever remember each wonderful stage of your child’s first year of life. Contact us here to get started today!
