vancouver newborn photography
A lifestyle newborn session lets families look back on this sweet and intimate time with their newborn baby and relive all the first cuddles, the teeny tiny baby parts, and the newly unfolding relationships and family dynamics. It is a time filled with so much adoration and love and absolute wonder at the miracle that has entered your lives, but these fleeting memories fade so easily after months of little sleep and growth spurts and new milestones. I will tell your story of this memorable time in your life.

01.
The test is positive!
When you feel the stirring of new life in your belly, and you know that your life has changed forever, you also know that this time is so precious, you want to bottle up every tiny second. It is best to book your newborn session 2-3 months before your due date. Simply sign the contract and pay the session fee, and I clear out my calendar around the anticipated session date.

The maternity miracle
In addition to being a Vancouver newborn photographer, I also love capturing your pregnancy journey as an add-on so you can remember the miracle of creating and carrying a life in your womb. It forms the perfect start to a incredible love story that culminates in your newborn session, blending seamlessly from one life stage to the next in your album.

The Big Day is here
Once you have a moment to wipe away the tears of joy, and you can tear yourself away from staring at your newborn baby in awe, let me know that baby has arrived. We will firm up a date for your session. Fresh 48 add-ons are also available to capture the raw emotions, and the absolute freshness of a new life hours after birth.

It’s Photo Day!
About 1-3 weeks after birth, once you’re settled into your new roles and routines, I will come to document the new relationships, the little newborn features, and the circle of love in your new family. It’s a relaxed, no-stress session, spent simply loving on this new little star in our midst, and taking our cues from baby.

The Big Reveal
Within 2 weeks of your session, your full gallery will be presented in a tear-inducing slideshow. Watch (and rewatch!) and decide which collection to purchase. I’m sure you are going to love them all, but my commitment to you is always to only buy what you love, so choose the collection that fits your family’s needs best.

Let’s talk about art
Your photos are part of your story as a family, and it makes no sense to keep those memories sitting forgotten in a dusty corner of your hard drive. Every collection includes a print credit to be used on products to display your gorgeous family photos in your home.
Investment
“BUY ONLY WHAT YOU LOVE”
By splitting up the total investment into two parts, you are assured you’re only paying for the images that you love. Pay the session fee before the session to cover my time preparing, photographing and editing. Then, after you see your photos, you can choose to purchase collections containing 15, 30 or all the digital files. I include gift print credits so your precious memories end up as printed art in your hands.
Session Fee
$250
This fee is non-refundable and payable before your session. It covers my time spent working with you before and during the session, including session preparation, capturing your photographs, and editing your images.
No photos are included in this session fee.
