Are you curious about how much professional newborn photography costs? You’re in the right place to find the answers you’re looking for. As a Niagara newborn photographer, I’d love to have an honest conversation with you about the true cost of professional newborn photography and why it costs what it does.

Squishy cheeks, impossibly soft tufts of hair, that button nose, all the delicate and soft features. But those early days with your newborn are also a total whirlwind. Between diaper changes, late-night feedings, and sweet snuggles, the little moments that make it all so special can easily slip by faster than you think.

West Lincoln Memorial Hospital is a well-known hospital in our area, with many families choosing to deliver their babies there. In fact, I delivered two of my babies in this hospital and had a wonderful experience both times.

A newborn portrait session that’s so seamless and easygoing that the whole family will love? It’s possible with a full-service studio newborn portrait session.

Once your sweet newborn arrives, the focus tends to be all on the baby. However, as a Niagara newborn photographer and a mom of four, I know exactly how important it is to take care of mom during those first postpartum weeks. My full-service newborn photography process is designed to take really good care of moms while capturing priceless images of your newborn baby and family. 

All I need to create timeless family portraits you’ll love forever is a family willing to let go and have fun. I’d love to explain. As moms, we put so much pressure on ourselves to be perfect. We compare our family to others we know and see online. You might see someone’s family portrait and think that’s not possible for you. You might believe the myth that some families are just photogenic. Or, like many of my clients with young children, you might worry about how your kids will behave during the session.

Bringing your new baby home and watching your daughter become a big sister is such a special and wonderful time. It’s also a huge adjustment for your family. You’re recovering from pregnancy and birth, learning to care for your newborn, and still caring for the rest of your family. Creating newborn artwork is the best way to hold onto this very sweet time. With so much going on those first two weeks, it’s understandable why a newborn photoshoot may feel like the last thing you’ll want to do.

Your time is so precious as a new mom. I want you to spend that time with your sweet baby. There’s a time and place for DIY, but a milestone session isn’t one of them. You can find lots of articles and YouTube videos on how to create a space in your home, but that will take you hours to teach yourself and prep. I’d hate for you to take all that time and not be happy with the results. This is the perfect opportunity to trust a professional to capture this important milestone. I’d love to share six reasons why you shouldn’t DIY your baby’s six-month session.

A full-service newborn photography session is a beautiful experience for your whole family.  At Reflections Photography, we want your newborn session day to be a wonderful memory for your family and suggest setting aside the day for your experience. Take this day to soak in your newborn and celebrate your growing family. 

You’ll never regret pausing to document this moment. The first six months with your baby are exhausting and filled with so much love. You’re learning how to take care of this sweet baby and find yourself as a parent along the way.

There is so much to do and prepare when you’re expecting a baby. I never want you to stress about your upcoming newborn photoshoot. I’m always happy to answer any of your questions. Please know that as an experienced newborn photographer and a mom of four, I’ve seen it all. It’s extremely rare for a newborn portrait session not to go well. It’s actually challenging for me to think of a recent one that didn’t go well.

Cherish each of your baby’s milestones without any of the stress of planning. As moms, we put so much pressure on ourselves to make sure everything is perfect for our children. We want to make sure that everything is taken care of for them so they never have to worry.
