How Full-Service Newborn Photography Saves Niagara Families Time
After you’ve had a baby, you’ll realize that your time is more precious than ever.
You’ll do anything to get back to those newborn snuggles. If you’re thinking about a newborn photography session, you might wonder if full-service photography is right for you.
If you’re not familiar with what full-service photography is and what it means, it might be a little different than what you expect. This process is designed to save you time and energy so that you can enjoy a professional experience and artwork without sacrificing time with your sweet newborn.
6 Ways Full-Service Newborn Photography Gives You Time Back
Session Planning - Do you have a vision for the session? Maybe you aren’t sure. Instead of spending hours on Pinterest or looking around online, I chat with my clients first to learn what they’re dreaming of and then guide them through the process of making it happen.
Wardrobe - When you DIY your photoshoot, you’ll need to figure out what everyone will wear and ensure you have all the items. You might have to go shopping online or to multiple stores to find the right outfits for every member of your family. Not only that but once you have the items, you’ll need to make sure everything fits and is clean and ready on the day of the session.
My full-service photography clients come to the studio prior to their session and choose outfits for their whole family from my client wardrobe. That’s it! On the day of the session, you’ll bring your family to the studio, where your outfits will be clean and waiting for you.
Getting Photo-Ready - You just had a baby. The last thing you need to worry about is your hair and makeup. All of my sessions include hair and makeup for mom so that she can feel pampered and confident heading into her photos.
Lifestyle Studio Session - Skip cleaning your home or worrying about where to take the photos. The studio is clean and ready for your family. Your photos will still feel like you and your family with no stiff or unnatural posing. I want my studio to feel like your home away from home, so you can relax and enjoy each other’s company during the session.
Image Reveal and Ordering - A week after your session, you’ll return to the studio for your image reveal and ordering appointment. Curious how this saves you time?
Scenario 1: You get sent a link to a digital gallery to view whenever. You open the gallery and ooh and ahh at your photos, but then you are distracted by something and think you’ll come back to look again. Days go by, and you keep meaning to look at your photos and choose your favourites. You want the artwork on your walls but can’t seem to decide which one will look best. You ask your partner, who isn’t sure either. Now weeks have passed, and you still haven’t decided.
Scenario 2: You have a dedicated viewing time with your photographer. We sit down together and look through each of your beautiful images from the session and relieve the magical day. You review the images again and select the ones that make your heart sing. After finding your favourites, we can mockup album or wall art designs so you can see how they will look in your home. You’ll feel happy and confident with your choices.

Portrait Artwork Installation - Ordering your artwork from an online store may seem easier and faster. However, I’ve heard many horror stories of portrait artwork arriving damaged or with some other issue. Then you have to deal with reordering. Once it arrives, you and/or your partner have to agree on hanging the artwork. A simple project is now a headache.
Once your portrait artwork arrives to my studio, I check it over to ensure it’s perfect. After that, I will deliver it to your home and install your wall art for you. You get to sit back, relax, and enjoy your portraits without lifting a finger.
