Newborn FAQs
Q. Who should come to the photo shoot?
A. To create a stress free environment we recommend
parents and child. If both parents can not be there,
that’s fine. We definitely don’t recommend
grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc...It creates chaos.
We like the shooting environment to be quiet.
Q. What should my baby wear for the photo
shoot?
A. Bring the babies normal essentials. A blanket,
some clean diapers and bottles just in case we run
into feeding time. Don’t worry about clothes.
Q. How many pictures will be taken.
A. As many shots needed to capture your child’s
portrait.
Q. How and when will I view my pictures?
A. Your pictures will be ready to view one week after
the session. They will be presented to you on the
computer.
Q. Do I have to have a birth announcement
created from the images.
A. No. A birth announcement is just one of the many
creative options available to you. We encourage parents
to become a part of the creative process.

FAQS
Q. When is the best time to get my maternity
portrait taken?
A. Please schedule your session for the end of your
7th month.
Q. Who will be taking my photo?
A. Ken will be taking all the pictures. One of his
female creative directors will also be present to
help with the shoot.
Q. How should I dress?
A. Clothing should be a solid color. Classic pure
black and white undergarments work best. We will always
experiment with fabric and lighting and encourage
women to bring any props or fabric that they would
like to use. Avoid anything with elastic that will
leave marks across your belly.

A. Having a child be part of the photo shoot is a
wonderful idea.

A. A photo shoot usually lasts about 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
We don’t stop shooting until we feel we have
captured images that you will cherish forever.
Q. Should I wear make-up and style my hair?
A. Yes! Make-up is important, but not necessary.
Q. Should I bring my partner to the session?
A. If you want to capture images together than definitely.

reconsider. We feel it’s best to come by yourself
so we can make you feel as comfortable as possible.

A. Your pictures will be ready to view one week after
the session. They will be presented to you on the
computer.
