Common questions about Newborn Lifestyle Sessions

You are preparing for the arrival of your new baby and you know you'd love some photos when they arrive. With all the business and things that come up when expecting a newborn, Breathe In Photography is prepared to make it easy for you. All the information you need to be ready for your session will be in your hands when you book so you can relax and enjoy the months or weeks before your new baby arrives.

If you know you'd love to have an album of your family session Breathe In Photography will take care of that too! Beautiful books, prints or canvases so you can see your images on display will all be taken care of so you can focus on your growing family.

How do I know you'll capture the images I want?

If after browsing this website and looking at the blog posts from previous in home newborn lifestyle clients, you enjoy my relaxed real-life-moments style (with all the little details like fingers and toes and hairlines) we will chat on the phone to check availability and so I can learn more about your family.

Before your session I will learn all about your goals and photo dreams. I'm sure to ask all the questions I need to be sure I'm meeting your needs. Of course, nothing is every guaranteed, but when I know what you are hoping for, I focus my efforts on that.

Within an hour, there are lots of opportunities for many photos - including the little stories like siblings reading books, feedings and cuddling on the bed.

How will I see all the images after our session?

You will see a gallery of images either online or in person after your photo session. You can choose your favourites and decide what you would like to do with them. Some clients choose images for an album, others choose a few special ones for printing or putting on canvas on their walls. The choices are up to you! Digital files are also available within your package.

How do we best prepare for our session?

Having just had a new addition to your family, I hope to capture your family as they are. There are some suggestions here on how to prepare for your session. You call me when you are ready for your session - anytime after birth - and I will come within 4 days of your call.

I have other children, I'm worried they may not want to be in photos, or they may misbehave.

I get it! As a retired camp director, I promise you I have all kinds of ways to connect and interact with your child so we can best capture some images. Sometimes they just need a bit of time to warm up. Often I will arrive and ask for them to take me on a tour of the house - or for them to show me their favourite toys.

I have children of my own and I completely understand the unpredictability of toddlers! They are my favourite people!
