Ten little fingers, ten little toes,
Two little ears and one little nose
Two little eyes that shine so bright
And one little mouth to kiss mother goodnight.

Don't miss out on capturing these tiny features of your newborn baby! ​

Windsor Colorado Newborn Photographer / Northern Colorado Newborn Photographer 

There is no feeling like meeting your new baby for the first time. From their tiny little toes to their sleepy smiles, you just want to take in everything just as it is. This is what I do. I give you those little toes, hands, and sweet little profile to remember. We know they are only small for so long, making it important to document those little features. Soon those features will grow into the child they will become. Being a mother and looking back at all of my newborns' photos always leave me in tears. I am forever grateful to have those to cherish. ​

FAQ's about a Newborn Session

Want to know more about a newborn session at ASP studio in Windsor CO? Here are some common questions to look through. No question is a bad question. If you would like to know more or ask any other questions, contact us today by filling out the contact form at the bottom of this page. We will set up a consult and get those questions answered. 

How old should my baby be for a newborn session?
We will book a session for your baby before they are 2 weeks old. I make every effort to photograph newborns between days 5 and 10 because babies are very sleepy, easily posed, less fussy, and have become accustomed to nursing. As newborns get older (10+ days), they tend to be more challenging to pose and settle, may develop baby acne, and have longer wake periods. For these reasons, it’s absolutely essential that the newborn session be scheduled early. I book up months in advance so be sure to come in for a consultation early and we can discuss all of your options. 
If, however, you have an older newborn, please reach out. I regularly photographs older babies and would be happy to accommodate last-minute bookings if my schedule permits.

​
When should I book a newborn session?
Please book your newborn portrait session before your baby is born whenever possible. Most families reserve their due dates during their second trimester or early in their third. This ensures that space is allotted in my calendar to photograph your baby during the ideal age (between 5 and 14 days old).

I completely understand that your due date isn't exact science. My first was four weeks early and second 3 days late. I will reserve time on and around your due date, ensuring you have a spot on the calendar. Upon your baby’s arrival, you or someone you trust will contact me to arrange your actual session date.

*To give each client the best service possible,  I only book a limited number of newborn portrait sessions per month. It is recommended that clients book newborn sessions as early as possible to ensure availability of dates and avoid disappointment. I will make every effort to accommodate late bookings whenever my schedule permits.


Where will my baby be photographed?
All newborn sessions occur in my in-home studio located in Windsor, CO. You will have access to my extensive collection of blankets, wraps, buckets, headbands, bonnets and other accessories to make your newborn session a success. No need to worry about outfits for baby. This is time for the parents to relax! 


How long do newborn sessions last?
All sessions are baby-led, meaning we work around the cues of your baby.  I allot plenty of time for feeding, diaper changes, and soothing the baby — Sessions are never rushed!  I allot for 3 hours for the session, although most sessions last about 2 hours. 

​
Can siblings be a part of the session?
Absolutely!!  We encourage the involvement of siblings and parents. We know how special the addition of a new member is, and we love when the whole family is involved.

**Health & Safety
Newborn health and safety is my top priority.  With children of my own and years working with young children, I understand a newborn’s vulnerable immune system and take every precaution to ensure the cleanliness and sanitation of her tools and props.  In cases of photographer or client illnesses, sessions will be rescheduled.
I will never jeopardize a baby’s safety during a session. I will not pose your baby in unsafe ways or in unstable props. Poses are always simple and comfortable for your delicate new baby.
