Newborn sessions occur in my Lafayette, Indiana studio where I have a full selection of high end studio props, accessories, & dresses for moms to wear. Professional makeup the morning of your session is included. I like to customize each session with your color palette & session preferences in mind, so that your images look "picture perfect" in your home.
Studio newborn sessions are scheduled when baby is 2-3 weeks old. Your session includes both family/sibling poses as well as several different setups of baby alone. If you are interested in both Maternity & Newborn sessions, make sure to ask about my Belly + Baby Plan. The best time to inquire about a newborn session is when you are in your second trimester. I only accept a limited number of babies each month, so booking early ensures a date on my calendar.
From the first moment you know that you are going to be a parent...your whole world shifts & you discover a love like no other that you've ever known. Experiencing the joy of watching your family grow are moments that you don't want to forget. Preserving this special time with beautiful photographs is an investment that will only become more precious with time...you'll have a little piece of forever right in your hands.

And let's create some magic! Moms will arrive to have makeup while I take baby to soothe & start the session. Older siblings? No worries, they can arrive a few hours later with Dad when we are ready to photograph the whole family. Together we'll have a fun, relaxing session that will leave you with gorgeous images to last a lifetime!

"We absolutely love Rebecca! She is the baby whisper when she had taken our kids newborn pictures, and we have loved the results from all our sessions. She is absolutely the best!"
The best time to book your newborn session is during your second trimester. I schedule a limited number of newborn sessions per month; therefore, it is important to book in advance to secure your due date on my calendar. Occasionally, I may have last minute availability on my calendar, so it's never too late to contact me to see if we can find a spot for you on my calendar!
Newborn sessions are typically held when baby is 9-20 days old — they sleep so well & curl up so easily into those sleepy newborn poses. If your baby should be a bit older for their session, not to worry — we can still get beautiful images of your baby... maybe a few cute awake shots as well!
My newborn sessions take place in my studio located in Lafayette, IN.
A typical newborn session lasts anywhere from 2-4 hours (depending on the needs of your baby). We take time to feed, change, & soothe baby as much as needed. I always tell clients that for a newborn session "baby runs the show!"
I have an extensive collection of beautiful props, wraps, headbands, & clothing for your newborn session. Besides milk/formula, diapers + wipes, & a paci... I will provide everything else that we need to create a gorgeous session!
