Calling all parents-to-be… have you thought about choosing jessie hearn photography for your studio newborn session? My all new Evanston studio is full equipped and ready to provide you with an incredible experience for you and your babies newborn images.
I know, I know… having a baby is overwhelming enough, without having to also think about leaving your house with your baby and all of his/her stuff in tow for a photography session.
Well, let me answer a few questions to help put your mind at ease.
Question: We haven’t slept; my toddler just ate 3 day old crackers out of the cushions in the couch; I hate my entire wardrobe; and my dog just peed all over the rug. Is this really something that I need to think about right now??
Answer: Of course not. But, if you’re anything like me, years (or more likely months/weeks) from now, you will wish that you had. For better or worse, the newborn-stage flies by in a blur and in the blink of an eye. Those perfect wrinkly babies will uncurl their legs in a matter of weeks. And before you know it, they are arguing with you about homework, clothing, dinner, and everything else they can possibly argue with you about. (I should really stop inserting my personal experience into this question and answer). My goal is to make this easy on you so that you will have perfect memories of the first time your baby captured your heart.

Question:
How much preparation will I have to do for this session? Do I have to bring everything but the kitchen sink with me?
Answer: No, this session will be very little work for you, at all. I will send you detailed instructions, with a few tips to help you best prepare for the session. One of my tips is to bring a book, magazine, or something to help you relax because once you are here at your session, my goal is for you to rest and ENJOY! I have all of the blankets, swaddles, headbands, baskets, etc. Of course, I always welcome personal items from home (special blankets, loveys, a favorite outfit, etc) so that we can make this session personal to you, but you are not required to bring anything. My studio is equipped with diapers, wipes, pacifiers, snacks, lollipops for the big siblings, coffee, and pretty much anything else you could need while you are here!
Question: How do we know what to wear? What to do to get ready? Etc.
Answer: Not to worry… prior to our session, you will complete a simple form which will help me to customize the session to fit YOU. I will provide you with a what to wear guide, as well as details instructions for what to do prior to my arrival (for example: when to feed the baby, etc). Nothing too complicated, I promise.

Question: How do I decide between a full session and a newborn session?
Answer: A full session has no time restraints… we will stop as often as we need to feed baby, change into different colors, sets, etc. A full session includes both individual baby shots, as well as parent images, sibling images, and family images. A mini session is one hour in length and is for baby only (no family or sibling images). The typical mini session includes 2-3 different sets.
