GENERAL —

  • I recommend maternity sessions should be scheduled when you are between 28-32 weeks. This is typically when your bump has “popped” but you aren’t so far along that you feel too swollen or uncomfortable for photos.

    Newborn sessions should ideally be scheduled when your baby is between 7-14 days old. This ensures baby will sleep during most of the session and will still enjoy being swaddled up tightly just like they were in mamas belly.

  • The booking fee includes our pre-session planning meeting, use of my exclusive client wardrobe for mom, professional hair & makeup services for mom, my time & talent the day of our session, my custom edits of each of your photos, and an in-person design & ordering appointment when your photos are ready.

    The booking fee does NOT include any digital files or artwork. Everything else is purchased a la carte during your viewing and ordering appointment.

  • I recommend booking at least 3-5 months in advance to make sure there is availability in my calendar. Especially with newborns, I only reserve a certain amount of spots each month.

  • Yes! Every single mama who books with me will get access to my exclusive client wardrobe as well as my clean beauty conscious hair & makeup artist sent to your home the morning of your session.

  • This depends a lot on the type of session you book, time of year, and if you prefer a session in your home or outside your home. Most sessions happen outdoors or in a local studio in West Nashville. We will plan out all the location details at our first pre-session planning meeting.
