I love capturing your baby as they grow! Baby Sessions are done when your little one is between 3-12 months old - my absolute favorite milestone to photograph is when your baby can sit unassisted (usually around 5-8 months old)!
As part of your baby session experience, all clients gain full access to my client closet. I provide a variety of adorable baby boy & baby girl outfits, headbands & flower crowns, hats & bonnets, as well as unique props.
Sessions take place either outdoors or in-studio. For optimal lighting, I highly recommend scheduling outdoor sessions for approximately 1-2 hours before sunset during “golden hour”. Studio sessions take place in the late morning/early afternoon at my bright & airy home-studio located in Sylvania Ohio.
All sessions are flat rate, meaning you don’t have to choose your favorites or make any further purchases. Your beautifully edited images are delivered to you via a private online gallery, where you can download your high-resolution files with a print release. A variety of custom products such as handmade wood photo blocks, heirloom memory boxes, fine art photo albums, and much more are also available to purchase directly from your private online gallery, if desired.
Because I only accept a limited number of sessions each month, I suggest booking at least 1-2 months in advance. A $100 non-refundable retainer (which is applied toward your session) is required at booking

You can expect a full session to last approximately 30 mins-1 hour. We will take breaks as needed, I never rush them!
