Newborn sessions typically last 1-2 hours to accommodate your baby’s needs, including feeding and soothing breaks. Studio sessions include 2–3 setups with different props and poses, while lifestyle sessions focus on 1–2 areas of your home (e.g., nursery and living room).

If you choose a lifestyle session, I’ll come to your home to capture your family in your natural environment. I’ll scout areas with the best natural light, such as near a window in the nursery or living room, to create soft, timeless images. These sessions typically last 1.5–2 hours and focus on 1–2 areas of your home to keep things simple. I bring minimal equipment to maintain the intimate, uncluttered feel of your space.

First and foremost, your baby’s safety and comfortability is paramount. As mother, I understand how to ensure that every environment and ever pose is secure and comfortable. You or a family member will always within arm’s reach, and I follow strict hygiene protocols, including hand-washing and sanitizing all surfaces and props. If your baby seems unsettled, we’ll pause to soothe them, ensuring a stress-free experience.

After the session, you’ll receive a private online gallery within 1–2 weeks to view and select your favorite images.

Including parents, siblings, or even pets in your session adds a heartfelt touch to your gallery. For family shots, I’ll guide you into natural, relaxed poses that showcase your connection with your newborn, like cradling them close or gazing down together. Siblings are welcome, and I use gentle prompts to capture their curiosity and love—whether it’s a toddler gently touching the baby’s hand or an older sibling reading a story nearby. If siblings are young, I often photograph their shots first to keep them engaged, then let them play while we focus on the baby. You’re welcome to wear coordinating outfits in neutral or soft tones to keep the focus on your family’s bond. As an experienced newborn photographer in Boise, I can help answer any questions you might have!
