What to Expect When Booking a Newborn Session with Kandi Anderson Photography

What you can expect when booking a Newborn Session with Kandi Anderson Photography.

Booking a newborn photography session is the best way to celebrate the start of a new chapter in your family!!  This event will be an overwhelming transformation in your life.  I want to help you relish that feeling by capturing amazing images for you to treasure for generations to come.

It’s best to book as early as your 2nd trimester to reserve a place on my calendar.    Once your session fee payment is received, we will book you a tentative date on my calendar.  I will keep in contact with you when it gets closer to your date. If you can let me know a few days after the birth we will confirm the exact date and time!!  I take limited sessions so I am able to have ample time for you and your little one!

Consultation

Prior to your session, we will have a consultation during which we will discuss your expectations and desires.  It will give us an opportunity to get to know each other and see the safe environment your baby will be photographed in. We will discuss pricing, packages, what to bring, and how the entire process works. All products offered will be available for you to feel, touch and see.

We’ll also discuss details like wardrobe.  Recommended clothing for mom (and siblings, if present) is simple, light tones of cream, white, pale pinks/rose, tans, and grays. Incorporating textures and layers is always a great idea and mamas are welcome to use my studio clothing.  Dads look great in a fitted white or gray casual t-shirt (nothing formal, please, no dress button ups) and pants/nice jeans, etc. !  Or if you are willing we can do skin on skin which is BEAUTIFUL!!  I think having your first family portraits taken is just as important as the newborn session.

 

 

 

what to expect at your newborn session

The Session

You should expect to arrive 10-15 minutes before your scheduled time to allow for feedings. The studio is kept at 75-80 degrees in order to keep the baby warm and comfortable. Newborns can lose their body temperature quickly, especially when unclothed, so we need to assure they are kept warm at all times. You may want to dress in layers so that you are comfortable as well. Please know that babies pee and poo on everything and you don’t need to worry. I have plenty of wipes and pads on hand and everything is washed after each session. No outside cameras, videos, or cell phone cameras are allowed at the studio.  Thank you for your respect.

I invest a great deal of time and talent in your images through planning, setting up the studio, picking out props, shooting, editing, hosting your gallery, and blogging your session.

Ordering Appointment

After your session!  I will message you to schedule your ordering session approximately 2 weeks after your session.  We will have the opportunity to meet up and place your order. Nothing I enjoy more providing my clients with my expertise on sizes, finishes, custom framing, and album design. My turnaround time on regular prints is usually 1-2 weeks. Canvases will take at least 3 weeks. Albums will take 2-4 weeks.

I look forward to working with you and capturing one of life’s greatest moments. Your photo session will be a special milestone in your life.  Together we will tell your story.
