Seattle Newborn Family Photography: Photos You’ll Cherish for a Lifetime

In Client’s Words
“Lana has a remarkable talent for capturing those precious, fleeting moments of our baby's early days. Each photo felt like a work of art, filled with tenderness, and we were thrilled with the final results.” —Hanguang

Schedule Your Newborn Session

During your session, I will guide, direct, and pose your family so you will never have to guess what to do. For the individual baby shots,  I will wrap, soothe, and pose your baby while you sit back and relax.

I usually start with family newborn shots and finish with individual baby shots. However, I may change things around depending on your baby’s mood.

Here is another example of the Newborn Deluxe Session with a focus on naturally posed family shots:

Sample Newborn Deluxe Photoshoots with Boys

The base price of the Newborn Deluxe Session includes 20 hand-edited high-res photos. Hand-editing is a more detailed approach to photo editing than basic color correction. It includes skin smoothing, removal of blemishes, bruises, and a few fly-aways, as well as more detailed color adjustments. It gives your newborn photos that “polished” look.

Every photographer has a unique editing style. One style is not necessarily better than the other. What’s most important is that you like the editing style of the newborn photographer you are choosing.

My editing style is natural and organic. One reason I include so many photos on this page and in my newborn portfolio is so you can get a really good feel for my shooting and editing style and make a confident decision.

As I mentioned, the Newborn Deluxe Session includes 20 hand-edited photos. However, you can buy additional images once you see your proof gallery. The proof gallery typically contains 80–100 photos from your session, with plenty of variety and options.

Sample Newborn Deluxe Photoshoots with Toddler and Siblings

I designed the Newborn Deluxe Session for family newborn photos, so there will be plenty of ways to include your toddler or older siblings.

I provide my clients with a detailed prep guide with styling tips to help each family look their best for the photos.

Here is an example of a Newborn Deluxe Session with a toddler. (We also included grandma in a few shots.)

In Client’s Words
“Lana is a true artist. She took great care in creating beautiful images of our family. We did an outdoor maternity shoot with our toddler followed by a newborn session in her studio. Both exceeded our expectations. She was wonderful with both our toddler and our newborn. Her studio is gorgeous including her props and accessories. Highly recommend!” —Christine

Sample Newborn Deluxe Photoshoots with Twins

The Newborn Deluxe Session is also perfect for families with twins. As you can imagine, more work is involved with twins, so the session has an additional fee. I will also have a studio assistant help during newborn family sessions with twins.

Here is an example of a Newborn Deluxe Session with twins:

Scheduling tip for families with twins:
To book a newborn photo shoot for twins, pick the Newborn Deluxe Session and add the option for Twins.

FAQs

When should I book my newborn session?

You should always book your newborn session at least two months in advance to ensure you have a spot. However, I know how busy life gets (oh boy, do I know!), and if you didn’t have the opportunity to book in advance and your baby is already here or coming soon, reach out to me. I will do my best to get you in.

When scheduling, which day do I pick, and what happens if the baby comes early or late?

When scheduling, choose the date closest to your due date, and I will pencil you in for that date, ensuring you have a spot. Because babies come on their schedules, we will pick an actual shoot date once your baby is born (typically five days to three weeks after birth).

When and how will I get my images?

You will receive your online proof gallery within four days after your session. Seven days after you submit your selections, your hand-edited images will be delivered via a separate online gallery.

How many images will I get?

The Newborn Deluxe Session includes 20 hand-edited photos. Once you see your proof gallery, which typically contains 80–100 photos, you can buy additional hand-edited images. The proof gallery offers plenty of variety and options.

In addition, you can buy all the parent shots with the infant (all the shots without props). Pricing for these upgrades is listed in the next section.
