When's the best time to bring my newborn to your studio?


Newborns are typically photographed between 7-21 days after birth. During this time your baby is still sleepy and doesn't mind being squished into those poses we all love. With that being said, just because your baby is 2 months old doesn't mean you can't have newborn images. A slightly older newborn is just more awake, curious of their surroundings and a little less squishy for posing. You may prefer that! No matter what your baby's age, I will provide you with beautiful, timeless images!

NICU Parents:

My journey as a mother also includes a 29 week old preemie and months of NICU life.


What the NICU taught me about time


When your baby starts life in the NICU, you become painfully aware of how quickly things can change. You don't take milestones for granted. My experiences have given me so much respect for every family and their story. No two are the same. I take great care in creating a safe and comfortable experience for you and your baby, as well as provide you with beautifully posed, timeless images.

FAQ

When Should I schedule my newborn Session?

You can book your session with me anytime. I do recommend scheduling before your baby is born to make sure I have time in my schedule. You do NOT need to know exactly when your baby will arrive in order to secure your spot in my calendar. If you are unsure about booking or want to wait until baby is born, that's okay too. I leave room to squeeze a baby or two in.

How do we schedule if the baby isn't born yet?

I get this one all the time. When you book I hold your spot on my calendar knowing that baby comes on their own terms. You do NOT need to know exactly when your baby will arrive, so your session is reserved with your due date and then confirmed with an official session date once baby arrives.

What happens if baby won't sleep?

Every know and then I get a baby that just doesn't want to miss a thing. That's okay! As long as baby is happy we keep going. If your baby is unsettled, we figure out what baby needs. If baby needs snuggles, we snuggle, if baby needs movement, we move. We'll figure it out.They usually fall asleep at some point, but until then, that eye contact is ADORABLE!

What if baby has to spend time in the NICU?

First of all, big hugs. NICU life is hard, Ive been there. My daughter was born at 29 weeks and we spent months there. I fully understand how scary and unpredictable this time is. What I want you to do is; rest as best as you can and just love that baby. When you're home and settled we will schedule the date of your session.

What if my baby hates being wrapped?

Many new parents think this, but in all my years wrapping baby's as a photographer and as a labor and delivery nurse, I have yet to meet a baby that doesn't like it. Your baby may not like the process of being wrapped, but being wrapped correctly is incredibly comforting for your baby. They feel warm and secure like in the womb and it lessons the impact of the moro (startle) reflex. This process is important to make them feel safe and drift off to sleep.

Where is your studio located?

My studio is located on my property in Leverett, Massachusetts.

Working with Angela was absolutely fantastic! We took newborn pictures with our 2w old and Angela was the most caring, loving and patient professional I’ve worked with. My baby was fussy for a little while in between feedings and tons of a diaper changes and while that can be very stressful, Angela helped us make the most out of it by chatting with us, laughing and even giving us tips!!! Everything was worth it as we had a great experience and the outcome was terrific. Beautiful pictures

Still Expecting your little one?

Studio Maternity Session


Studio maternity sessions are a great way to capture your pregnancy. These are a bit more intimate and private especially for those wanting to show a little skin. You could also come in ripped jeans and a t-shirt, that's up to you. The studio offers a changing area with a selection of gowns, robes, fabric and bodysuits to use during your session. I recommend coming to the studio when you are between 28-34 weeks, but. ultimately it's up to you and when you feel most comfortable. Pregnancy can be tough on some, and you may not feel like having images taken, but you will leave feeling like a goddess!

Outdoor Maternity Session


Embrace the beauty of that baby bump with a maternity session. I have a variety of local locations so capture this journey. I recommend scheduling when you are between 28-34 week to get the best baby bump.
