newborn SESSIONS
SESSIONS START AT $525
To ensure a session date, booking in your 2nd trimester is highly recommended.
IN-STUDIO: These sessions occur within 2.5 weeks after birth in my studio located in West Islip. An in-studio newborn session may benefit you most if you're looking for a "full service", no prep feel. Just show up and I've got you covered! With this session you are getting full access to my extensive wearable & solid prop collection, backdrops, safely performed, professional posing that's seen throughout my website/IG/facebook, studio lighting to ensure the best results regardless of weather/time of day, plus, full editing/retouching on your final image choices. I suggest this session if you want images of the baby only or the majority of the focus to be on the baby with a few family images sprinkled in. Depending on your collection choice, you will receive an online proofing gallery with 20+ images for you to choose the included amount of final digital images from.
•Save up to $75 when you book an in-studio newborn & maternity session together! View the price menu to see how.
LIFESTYLE: Lifestyle sessions emphasize candid, authentic moments rather than "posed to perfection" shots. While I capture a few solo images of the baby, this session is ideal if family (and sibling, if applicable) connection portraits are your priority as they will make up the majority of your final gallery. Lifestyle sessions are designed to be flexible and can be scheduled anytime within the first 6 weeks after your baby arrives for those wanting a "newborn" look. Lifestyle family sessions for older babies and children are also available at any age or stage (please see "Lifestyle Sessions" below for more details). I bring along one solid prop and a few wraps, though you are welcome to provide your own wrap if preferred. A simple onesie/outfit and wrap are usually best for the baby. Lifestyle sessions utilize the natural light available in your home, with your own decor serving as the backdrop. Depending on the lighting and space, we may use a variety of areas, including the master bedroom, living room, kitchen, nursery, or even outdoors when weather permits. Lifestyle sessions do not have a set number of images included, as every session is unique and the final gallery will vary. I’ll curate a gallery of 20+ of the best images captured during our time together, with the final number depending on the flow of your session (I do not cap this number). Basic editing, including exposure, tone, and color correction, is included. Additional retouching requests, such as skin or hair edits, body modifications, and head swaps, are available upon request for $20 per image. Travel within 35 minutes of West Islip, NY, is included. Additional travel is available for an additional fee, with quotes provided upon request.

If time and baby allow, we'll finish off the session with a staged (no water) bathtub setup! I allow one outfit change per shoot, if wanted. After your session, you will receive an online proofing gallery featuring 25 or more images, from which you will select your favorites. 10 digital images are included with additional images available for purchase. Your final image selections will be delivered via instant digital download.

lifestyle SESSIONS
PRICE: $650
About the Session: Lifestyle sessions focus on candid, authentic moments and genuine connection rather than perfectly posed portraits. These relaxed, in-home sessions are ideal for capturing newborns (see “Newborn Sessions” for more details), maternity, pregnancy announcements, families, and other meaningful milestones. With minimal posing and gentle guidance when needed, the goal is to capture the natural connection between you and your loved ones. Sessions are flexible and laidback, making them a great fit for families with older babies and children, too. Lifestyle sessions utilize the natural light available in your home, with your own decor serving as the backdrop. Depending on the lighting and space, we may use a variety of areas, including the master bedroom, living room, kitchen, nursery, or even outdoors when weather permits. Maternity sessions are best scheduled between 32-37 weeks of pregnancy. For those wanting to capture a newborn-style session, sessions can take place within the first 6 weeks after your baby arrives. Lifestyle sessions do not have a set number of images included, as every session is unique and the final gallery will vary. I’ll curate a gallery of 20+ of the best images captured during our time together, with the final number depending on the flow of your session (I do not cap this number). Basic editing, including exposure, tone, and color correction, is included. Additional retouching requests, such as skin or hair edits, body modifications, and head swaps, are available upon request for $20 per image. Travel within 35 minutes of West Islip, NY, is included. Additional travel is available for an additional fee, with quotes provided upon request.
•These sessions take place in and around your home with your decor as my "backdrop". I will always look for the best light possible!
•Lifestyle sessions are for portraits only. I do not offer event photography.
