Newborns

This is a special time in your life, your baby will never be this tiny again, and I'd be honored to capture your precious newborn baby. Please note that newborns are best photographed within the first 14 days after birth but newborn sessions are possible up to 6 weeks old if baby is born premature. I encourage booking prior to baby's birth so that I can ensure their session within the ideal time frame.

Pricing is all inclusive- meaning that the pricing listed below each collection includes the session fee along with the set amount of digital images. You can order prints through your final galleries or print on your own as you wish.

*Family photos are optional.  If you do not choose to include family photos, all images will be taken of baby.  Due to the amount of time blocked off for unwrapped (tummy and side laying such as image above) posed newborn sessions, a Luxe session is the only option if you'd like these poses,

​FAQ's

When will my session be scheduled or do I need to choose a date when I book?  Your newborn session is reserved in Lisa's calendar when you book and is scheduled once you give birth. You will contact us within 3 days of your baby's birth and Lisa will give you some options within a 2 week time frame.  

Why are newborn sessions so expensive?
 Newborns are on their own schedule so sessions can be lengthy.  These sessions are never rushed.  We take breaks when baby needs to eat or for diaper changes. I do not start taking photos until baby is happily settled and safely posed, and I work to get all of the details perfect. Newborn sessions require special training to keep your baby as safe as possible.  The editing process is lengthy as I custom retouch baby's skin.  Newborn skin is often splotchy, with tones of reds and yellows.  Newborns can have scratches, baby acne, and flakes.  I take the time to get their skin tones perfect when editing.  I invest a lot of money into bringing in the best baby props, wraps, headbands, and outfits.  Newborn sessions also require a lot of prep and clean up.   All of this along with my regular business expenses are factored into the cost. 

Why can I trust with you my baby?  I'm a mother of two boys so I have experience with two newborn babies of my own.  I  have taken newborn photography and safety classes.  I keep my poses simple and safe. 

Do I need to bring anything to my session?  Other than baby's essential items, you do not need to bring anything to your session. I provide everything you will need for the photo session. 
​
Where are you located?  I'm located in Hagatna, in the same building as Hava Java Cafe.  My studio is roomy enough for parents to sit back and relax and for older siblings to hang out and play during your session. There are plenty of restaurants in the area, so you can grab some lunch or coffee and enjoy it while I photograph your newest family member.
