I’m here with insider tips to help you choose the right photographer for your needs. (And, spoiler alert, it’s not the same person for every family!)

Parents often ask: "Can my older child be in the newborn pictures? I have no idea how that will work, or if she’ll cooperate."

I can absolutely relate to these parents’ concerns! I have three kids myself and know firsthand how difficult it is to wrangle them into the same picture. However, I have a strategy for managing older siblings (toddlers to teenagers!) that tends to work really well in newborn sessions.

If you’re considering a newborn photoshoot, you may be wondering if a sentimental object or two can be incorporated. And the answer: YES! For Autumn’s newborn session, I was able to incorporate a gorgeous bridal veil, unique wedding rings, and the flowers of her birth month, carnations.
