FAQ
What's the difference between the Classic and Wrapped Poses?
The classic poses are the sweet curled/naked pictures that showcase just your baby, no props, on a solid blanket. The fully wrapped poses will have your baby swaddled, and posed in different props such as baskets, buckets, blankets and soft furs. The Petite is a fully wrapped session and the Heirloom + Signature include both the classic and wrapped poses.
How many pictures will I have to choose from in the proofing gallery?
The proofing gallery for the Signature & Heirloom sessions will have approximately 30-60 for you to choose from. The Petite session will have approximately 10-15 pictures to choose from. The proofing gallery will only have minor edits applied to the images. A fully edited gallery will be sent once you have chosen your final images. Your final images will be available to download, print, share and order albums & wall art!
Can I purchase more pictures than what are included with the session?
Absolutely! If you love more than what's included with the session, you are more than welcome to purchase additional images! Additional images are $30/image (discounts are available for full gallery purchases)!
Does the Petite Session include both baby and family pictures?
Because this is a shorter session, it includes either baby only, or family only poses, but not both. The Heirloom session includes all the bells and whistles with family, baby and sibling poses!

A little bonus!
Your newborn maybe little, but they have huge personalities! At the end of every newborn session I take my favorite pictures - baby mugshots. They are simple, black & white photos where I capture all their funny little faces! They go from happy, to sad, to full cry mode and back to happy again, all the while I'm capturing every expression. These are included with every newborn session and are definitely parent favorites!

What clients are saying...
We were so excited to have Dana take pictures of our beautiful daughter. We could not be more pleased with how all of our pictures have turned out.
Dana treats us like friends and is very responsive. She made our family feel comfortable and took the time needed to get beautiful pictures. Children, especially newborn infants, don't always cooperate ... but Dana has a magic touch.
We would recommend Dana without reservation whenever you have a newborn baby. We will forever cherish the pictures Dana took of our precious daughter.
-The Wilde Family
"It's so nice not having to worry about bringing anything for the session! Dana said all we needed to bring was our baby and she wasn't kidding!"
"Dana helped us create a beautiful wall collage from our newborn session! She put together different arrangements for us to choose from. She made everything so easy! We always get compliments on our gallery wall!"
Kind Words
One of the most exciting things about expecting our third child was that Dana could potentially take her newborn photographs. She accomplished the most amazing work with our second, both newborn and first birthday pictures. Rarely is it that you love every photo, but honestly, I have loved every. single. one.
Her studio is comfortable, warm and neatly stocked with every color wrap, headband and prop ready to be utilized. But what sets Dana apart is not only her super power- baby whispering, but that she is one of those people who you instantly want to consider a friend.
She is kind, funny, focused, professional, creative, talented, family-oriented and a lover of all humans. She will make you want to have babies well into your advanced maternal age life because she makes the sessions so effortless and fun.

My wife and I had chosen Dana as our new born photographer after researching for a month or so. We are extremely happy that we have chosen her for our first baby boy.
She is incredibly organized and is very good at what she does. She is very detailed and thoughtful of her client needs. I would highly recommend her and her great work.
Dana - Thanks again for helping us to make memories!!

Absolutely loved our newborn photo session with Dana!!
Her studio is set up and decorated so nicely. Love how she sends a questionnaire to get a feel of what kind of photo shoot you want. The props and swaddles she uses are all so cute!
She's also super kind and sweet! Terrific with our 2 1/2 week old.
Overall, our experience was a 10/10. Definitely recommend! :)
