Newborn packing list
If baby normally does not take a pacifier, please bring it just in case. Newborn sessions are new to your baby and they often want to self soothe by sucking more often than normal. Using a pacifier during a session will not encourage bad habits - I promise!

I want you to be nice and relaxed during your session. Newborns generally respond to your energy and therefore the more relaxed and comfortable you are the more chances of a successful newborn session we can expect to have.  

Remember all the basics, pacifier, diapers, blanket, bottles and any keepsakes or special items you'd like to use. I have new pacifiers available in case you need them. Please check your baby for a diaper rash and a hard gassy tummy for a more comfortable session. 

Prior to the session, I would love for you to share with me your favorite images for inspiration from my Instagram, Pinterest or Facebook. You are also welcome to share images from other sources as well. Keep in mind that while I do stock a ton of newborn items, some specialty items may not be available. For men or woman in uniform - I suggest you bring your uniform and any accessories to use. For specialty baby uniform items or outfits, please ask in advance if I have those items. This is also true for specialty knit animal outfits, props or other items. Most complicated images are composites and not all babies are able to bend in all poses. I will always discuss poses before we start to explain how I achieve the pose.
