Newborn Session FAQ's

Have Questions about a Newborn Session? I’m happy to answer any questions you have by email, phone or text, but check out these questions I get asked the most:

Q.) What is the best age for my session?

A.) Sessions are best done when the baby is between 5 and 14 days old. We want them to be sleepy and still flexible for the poses. But if this timing doesn’t work for your family, don’t stress, we can still do the session, just adapt the poses to fit your baby’s age.

Q.) How do I book my session, when I don’t know when my baby will arrive?

A.) To book your spot, you will pay the deposit at the time of booking then just contact me as soon as you arrive home from the hospital! We will get you on the schedule for the week or two following that! Don't worry we keep our weekday schedule flexible for newborns!

Q.) How long does a newborn session last?

A.) Most sessions take about 2 hours depending on the baby. If we need to go longer to get the shots we want, we definitely will! Don't worry, our downtown Chattanooga newborn photography studio is stocked with snacks, drinks, toys, and even a bed to make your session as comfortable as possible! 


Q.) Do I need to bring anything to the session?

A.) Nope! We have a studio full of props designed for newborns. But if you have anything sentimental or special you want to incorporate into your session, you are welcome to bring them.

Q.) Are Family photos included?

A.) I love incorporating parents and siblings into your newborn session. These are included in our Full Newborn session and all of our packages, except the Petite. Our studio has a large backdrop for the studio portraits or a bed and a couch for lifestyle snuggle shots.

Q.) What should Parents and Siblings wear for Family Photos?

A.) We want the baby to stand out, so I recommend solid colors and neutrals.

Q.) Are Digital Images included in the packages?

A.) Yes, all sessions include an online gallery from the session, that you can share with friends and family. Depending on the session you choose, you will also receive download credits to download your favorite images. You will also have the option to upgrade to unlimited download or purchase Fine Art Prints.

Q.) What about my baby’s safety?

A.) Safety is my top priority. I have been trained in newborn handling and posing and continually educating myself on new posing techniques and safety measures. All the props used are weighted and padded for baby’s comfort. All the blankets and wraps are cleaned for each session.
