All of my Newborn Packages are in-home sessions done at a client’s home. This is great for moms that just gave birth and don’t want to travel, especially with Covid. I bring all of my newborn studio equipment to a client’s home, along with wraps, newborn clothing, props and backdrops. Nothing is needed from mom and dad, except an occasional diaper change or feeding. I am fully vaccinated, including covid boosters, flu shots and tdap. For the safety of the baby, I wear a mask during the entire session.
I have a range of packages available to suit any budget, from simple swaddled sessions to bespoke deluxe sessions with multiple prop sets, family portraits and fine art portraits. Need help deciding on a package, give me a call! My business line is 209-284-5500.
Don’t forget your maternity session! All of my maternity clients receive $100 off of their newborn package. Maternity clients have full access to my client closet for session styling, check out my maternity packages here.

The complete milestone package will cover your little one’s first year of life. With this package you will receive a mommy’s choice newborn package, one full infant and toddler portrait package and one full cake smash. These will be done at the newborn stage, 6 month stage and 1 year stage. You’ll be able to capture every big milestone of your baby’s first year of life.
To learn more about my complete milestone package ask me during your booking process.
Booking of your newborn session is ideally tentatively booked before you give birth or the day after you give birth. The ideal time to take newborn portraits is 7-10 days old. Older babies tend to stay awake more during a session and they grow surprisingly fast! You’ll want to capture your baby as early as possible to remember just how tiny they were.
When you contact me to book your session, we will go over the type of session you’ll be choosing, the color of backgrounds and wraps, whether mom and dad or siblings will be included, set design, clothing choices,and more.
After your session, I head back to my office to get started on your proofs. Turnaround for my proofs is generally 1 week. Proofs are edited, but not fully retouched, full retouching comes after you select your final images. Your proofs will be delivered to you via a secure proofing gallery where you can choose the images you want to keep. My sessions typically produce 2x the amount of images included in your package. If you would like to add additional portraits the charge is $12 an image.
After you have chosen your proofs, I put the finishing touches on your images and get to work on your slideshow if your package includes it. This process usually takes about 24-48 hours. When your final images are ready for download you will receive an email with a link to your secure download. There you can download your images and choose the images you want printed. Each package comes with a few prints, additional prints or products should be ordered through your final gallery.
