Do you feel awkward being in front of the camera? You are far from alone. In fact, I think many of my clients would say that they feel awkward in front of the camera. It’s a concern that gets brought up during my initial consult during the photography booking process.

Mama, are you dreaming of a portrait session for your second child but feel guilty about not doing the same with your first? This post is for you. 

Let me support you during your baby’s first year. Watching your baby grow is one of the most incredible experiences you’ll have. Each milestone they reach is more exciting than the last, from their first smile, giggle, sitting up, to walking. That first year with your sweet baby will fly by faster than we like. 

You deserve to effortlessly document your pregnancy. I remember how tiring pregnancy can be. You feel like there’s so much that needs to get done before the baby is born, yet you can’t help but feel so excited to meet this baby.

Are you trying to decide between an at-home or studio newborn photography session? No matter what, I’m so glad you’re looking into professionally documenting your new baby in portraits. You’ll love looking back on your newborn photos over the years.

Photographing your sweet, rambunctious toddler during your newborn session will be an unexpected delight. I use a combination of years of experience and play to engage your toddler throughout the session to capture treasured portraits of your children.

A lot happens between your baby’s newborn portraits and their first birthday. Let’s hit the pause button and celebrate your baby’s half-birthday, along with all the cuteness that comes with it. By documenting your baby at six months, you’ll be able to hold onto these memories for the years to come.

Mama, you do so much for your family, let us take care of this for you. Have you heard of decision fatigue? If you haven’t heard of the term, maybe you’ve felt itIf you’ve ever felt overwhelmed and drained after a day of making lots of decisions, that’s decision fatigue.

Long before I pick up my camera, you and I dream about your future portraits and how we’ll lovingly display them in your home. My booking process is about building the foundation for a long-lasting partnership. I’d love to share Reflection’s 4-Part Booking Process with you. This way, you’ll know exactly what to expect after you hit “send”!

Your toddler is not only welcome to your newborn photoshoot, but they make the day really special. They bring big, loving energy and joy to the session. Plus, your toddler is now a big brother, so we want him to be part of this celebratory moment for your family.

Not being photogenic is actually a good thing. Have you ever looked at someone else’s beautiful maternity photos and thought, “Wow, well, she’s very photogenic, and I’m just not.” The truth is that she probably felt the exact same way before her photo session. I hear from mamas (and their partners) all the time that they would love to have professional maternity portraits taken but worry that they’re not photogenic enough.

Sometimes, mamas can be the hardest on themselves and their appearance, which holds them back from being in photographs. No matter what the reason is, I want to encourage you to be in the photos. While there are reasons moms tend to shy from being in photos, I can come up with an endless list of reasons why you should be in them. Here are just a few.
