Frequently Asked Questions
Below are answers to some of the questions parents ask most often before booking a newborn session. If you don't see your question here, feel free to reach out - I'm always happy to help.
What types of photography sessions do you offer?
I specialize in newborn, milestone, cake smash, and lifestyle newborn photography. Many families first find me while searching for an Austin newborn photographer, then return throughout their baby's first year for milestone and birthday sessions. I also photograph older children, themed studio sessions, and select family portraits, making it easy to document every stage of your family's journey in one place.
When should I book my newborn session?
Most families book during the second trimester to ensure availability. Newborn sessions are typically photographed within the first 2-3 weeks after birth, but I can reserve your spot based on your due date.
Can parents and siblings be included?
Absolutely. Parents and siblings are welcome in newborn, milestone, and lifestyle sessions. Session options vary depending on the type of session you choose.
What type of sessions do you offer for older babies and children?
For babies beyond the newborn stage, I offer milestone sessions, first birthday portraits, and cake smash sessions. These sessions are designed to capture each stage of your child's growth with age-appropriate posing, styling, and setups.
What should my family wear?
You'll receive planning guidance before your session, including outfit recommendations and styling tips. The goal is to create timeless portraits that coordinate beautifully without feeling overly matched.
Do you provide props and outfits?
Yes. The studio is fully stocked with wraps, blankets, headbands, bonnets, props, and a selection of outfits for babies. You're welcome to bring sentimental items if you'd like them incorporated into your session.
What if my baby or child isn't cooperating?
Babies and toddlers don't always arrive in a photo-ready mood, and that's completely normal. With over a decade of experience, I have plenty of tricks to encourage smiles, engagement, and cooperation. You can also read more here about what happens when little ones have an off day.
Where is your studio located?
My studio is located in Austin, TX, and serves families throughout Austin, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Leander, Georgetown, Pflugerville, Dripping Springs, and surrounding Central Texas communities.
Do you offer in-home sessions?
Yes. In-home lifestyle newborn sessions provide a relaxed way to document your family in the comfort of your own home. I also offer a premium option where I can bring my studio setup to your home for posed newborn portraits.
