FAQ
When is the best time to book a maternity session?
It’s best to book your newborn and maternity sessions early in your pregnancy to ensure availability. I prefer photographing women around 27-32 weeks - when the bump is beautifully visible, and mom still feels comfortable.
Do you provide outfits?
Yes, I offer a thoughtfully curated client wardrobe featuring timeless, effortless pieces - like classic denim, crisp white button-downs, elegant black slip dresses, romantic tulle gowns, and more.
How long will it take to receive my photos?
You can expect to receive your fully edited gallery within 2-3 weeks after you have made your selection of images.
Can my partner and children join the session?
Absolutely! Your partner and children are more than welcome to join the session. Including them can make your maternity photos even more special. Just let me know who will be joining, so I can plan accordingly.
How do I book a session?
Booking is easy. You can reserve your date directly through the booking website or reach out via the contact form if you have any questions or need help with the booking process. Please note that a signed contract and a non-refundable deposit are required to secure your session.
What happens if the weather doesn’t cooperate on the day of an outdoor session?
Things happen. In case of bad weather or illness, we can always reschedule to a date that works best for everyone. Your comfort and the quality of your session are my top priorities.
Do you provide any props or accessories?
I keep my sessions simple and timeless, so I don’t typically provide props. However, if you have any sentimental items you'd like to include, feel free to bring them along. I’m happy to incorporate them into your session in a natural and thoughtful way.
Do you shoot in studios other than your own?
Yes! While my main studio in Jersey City, I love exploring new spaces. If you've found a studio you love in NYC, Brooklyn, or NJ, let me know - I’m always open to creative locations.
Can we do the session outdoors or at a meaningful location?
Yes! We can shoot anywhere that feels special to you - your favorite park, a scenic spot, or somewhere with sentimental value.
What should I wear?
After booking, you’ll receive a welcome email with styling tips and outfit recommendations that many clients find helpful.
