single child session (birthday, milestone) :: on location or in studio :: $300

children grow so fast, and portraits help capture each special stage. the single child session takes place either in my studio (for babies 12 months or younger) or on location (for babies sitting up and older). sessions last approximately 30-45 minutes depending on baby’s age. sessions include 2-3 outfit changes (or “naked-baby” looks). for babies 12 months and younger, i am happy to style some or all of your looks using my hats and headbands in the studio. i will provide props for these sessions if desired. you will receive 15 custom-edited, high-resolution digital images in both color and black + white. (additional images may be purchased). images will be delivered both via dropbox and an online gallery you can share with friends and family. there is a $50 non-refundable deposit to secure your session. these sessions are only for ONE child…. if you would like to include any siblings, there is an additional fee. cake smash sessions are available for an additional $50 and cake is not included.

i suggest waiting until baby is sitting up to schedule a session for the best results. if you would like to schedule before baby is sitting up, i begin scheduling as of 4 months.
