Crafting the Perfect Portrait: A Collaborative Experience


Our newborn sessions are not just appointments—they're collaborative endeavors, meticulously designed to capture the essence of your family's love and journey. From the moment you book your session, we begin crafting the perfect ambiance, ensuring every detail aligns with your vision and preferences. It all starts with a phone consultation! During our call, we will discuss every detail of your upcoming session, answer your questions, and help find out the right products for your home to keep in mind.


Styling Call: Setting the Stage for Beauty


Prior to your session, we'll engage in a virtual styling call to curate the perfect aesthetic for your portraits! We will be selecting attire from our exquisite client closet for Mama and coordinating outfits for the entire family! This part is so very fun and we love showing mama all the stunning dress options we offer to each of our Mama clients! This collaborative process ensures a seamless and visually stunning outcome.

Specially Geared Towards Mama: Embracing Pampering and Beauty

TIME MANAGEMENT TIPS: MAXIMIZING YOUR SESSION EXPERIENCE


To ensure a seamless and stress-free experience, we recommend allocating ample time in your day for your newborn session. This includes allowing sufficient time for your hair and makeup artist to prepare, ensuring you and your family are ready to shine in front of the camera. If you are interested in a same day portrait reveal, we can schedule a morning session, and your photos will be ready to view by the early evening! We love same day viewings. If you choose to have a same day viewing, you will want to block off an entire day, from morning to night, for this special portrait experience.


If you are not going with a same day reveal, you will want to make sure you have enough time for Kasey Smith, our hair and makeup artist, to come to your home. You will want to have enough time to dress and get your family ready as well. Sessions take around one hour, sometimes a little longer depending on which location your family has chosen. As a lifestyle newborn photographer, Sarah Finicle Photography focuses on the connection between baby and mama and family, without extensive or complicated posing for baby. This is why our newborn sessions tend to be shorter in duration.

Embrace the Moment: Investing in Your Family's Legacy


In the hustle and bustle of parenthood, it's easy to overlook the importance of these precious moments. However, by investing time and attention into your newborn session, you're investing in the legacy of your family's love—a legacy that will be cherished for generations to come.


Dear parents-to-be, we invite you to embrace the beauty of this fleeting moment with Sarah Finicle Photography. Together, let's capture the essence of your family's love and create cherished memories that will stand the test of time! We cannot wait to work with you! If you have any questions, inquire here.
