Welcome to Kansas City's
Newborn Photography Specialists
as featured on the cover of
KC BABY MAGAZINE!

Top company award for newborn photography

I've been photographing newborns for nearly 20 years.  It takes a special talent to know how to work with babies and keep them happy while getting them into their wraps and poses.  Believe me, Christy has lots of tricks up her sleeves to get the littles to cooperate!!​​​

All you have to do is get here & we do the rest!

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT TO SPEND:  

 

All newborn photo sessions take place at the studio where I have everything to make your new addition warm, comfortable and adorable in the props and scenes I create.

 â€‹â€‹â€‹

And YES! You get the full-resolution digital images with copyright release so you can share, copy, and print (or I can help you with prints, too)!   

​

You can expect to spend between $385 and $745 for our regular priced digital image packages.

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I SCHEDULE MY NEWBORN PHOTO SESSION?  

I can book up a month or so in advance (especially during the busy times such as late summer, fall, and around holidays).  Please call to book your session while you are still pregnant if possible!  I only book one newborn session a day so I have limited availability.   When you call, we will guess on a date and get that on the calendar.  Once baby arrives, we will confirm that time or move the session date/time as necessary. 

​​

IF YOUR BABY HAS ALREADY ARRIVED, call ASAP to check our schedule.  I may be able to squeeze you in.  

​​​​​​

​​​

WHAT AGE IS BEST TO PHOTOGRAPH MY NEWBORN BABY?

I love to photograph babies within the first 2 weeks of birth.  That's when the magic can happen.  They are tiny, still wrinkly, and haven't figured out they're born yet (so they're not too active).  At 3 weeks, it can start to get challenging to get those cute poses, but still doable so please call if this is you!  Of course if you have an early delivery or if there are any complications, we can accommodate.

​​​​

​​

​​

HOW LONG WILL THE SESSION LAST?

A typical newborn session can last 2 hours.  

​​​

DO YOU HAVE PROPS?

I provide everything we need for the newborn session.  You can also bring a special blanket, heirloom piece or other items that are near and dear to you.  These are the details we discuss in depth during the consultation.

​

MOMS . . . HAIR AND MAKEUP AVAILABLE!!
