CHARLESTON NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

THOSE HAZY DAYS DOCUMENTED

I know the first weeks of parenthood are equally exhausting as joyful. Amidst it all, you're striving to etch every detail of your baby into memory – from those squishy feet to their perfect nose. They are constantly changing and growing the moment they arrive, making these memories even more precious as time goes by.

Newborn photos that preserve the indescribable magic of your baby's earliest days

- Aubrey

I can't say enough about how amazing Rachel is! She is so kind and went above and beyond for our photoshoot. Not only did she help me picking out what to wear, but she was so great with our toddler.

A collection of images that you will cherish for years to come and that convey life's greatest celebration: love and the joy of being loved.

My promise to you:

As a newborn photographer, I strive to encapsulate the pure essence of your baby's first days, capturing the tiny details that fade all too quickly. I seek to preserve the delicate innocence, the tender bond between parent and child, and the sheer magic that permeates every cuddle. The early days are long, but they are also so achingly beautiful, and I am here to make sure you can relive them as the years go on.

I will respond within 48 hours with more information and guidance on what it's like to work with me and how to get you booked for your dream session!

Once we've confirmed a date for our time together, we will start planning out your session. From this moment forward, your vision, preferences, and comfort become my top priorities.

I will help guide you in every step of the way from a perfectly, curated wardrobe to selecting a beautiful location that will resonate with you and your family.

2. Planning your session

This is the day that all our planning comes to life. Our session will be relaxed and fun. You will not be left to guess where to place those suddenly awkward hands or trying to coax that genuine smile from your kiddo, leave that all up to me.

I will give various photo prompts and provide gentle guidance throughout our time together. I will be there to capture all the smallest details, timeless portraits, and heartfelt interactions that all express your bond to one another.

3. Session day

You will receive your beautifully, hand edited images in a few weeks after your session. I will create a gallery that will truly let you relieve all those precious moments captured over and over again. 

Should you wish to bring these memories to life, I extend the option of professional print services through a trusted photo lab. This allows you to turn those photos into tangible displays of your family's love and connection.

FAQ

Timing on your newborn session is really up to you. You can have it done as early as 7 days post birth and up to a few months old. 

When is the best time to schedule a newborn session?

Yes! I am able to travel outside my normal range of service to accommodate for certain sessions! There is a travel fee added to the normal rate.

Do you travel outside of the charleston area for sessions?

We will discuss wardrobe together during our pre session planning. I will help guide you to the perfect outfit that reflects your own style and that will also photograph beautifully. 

What should i wear to my session?

I recommend reaching out when you are in your second trimester to book your newborn session. I will add your due date on the calendar and once baby arrives, we will schedule you!

How far in advance should i book my session?

Newborn sessions don't have a time limit but typically last anywhere from 1.5 hours-2.5 hours. This ensures a calm and relaxed environment where we can take as many breaks as needed for soothing, feeding, outfit changes, etc. 

How long will my newborn session last?

Don't worry! I understand that newborns can be unpredictable so I'll prepare you on ways to best mitigate this. During our time, we will take breaks as needed and work patiently to ensure a successful session.

What if my baby is fussy or uncooperative during the session?
