And why you need to book both.

Welcoming a new life into the world is a magical and transformative experience when growing your family! From the joyous anticipation of pregnancy to the precious moments spent with your newborn, this incredible journey deserves to be captured in stunning photographs. When it comes to preserving these cherished memories, there is huge value in booking both your maternity and newborn sessions with the same photographer. In this blog post, we will explore the numerous benefits and importance of this decision.

1. Consistency in Style and Aesthetic: Every photographer has their unique style and artistic vision. By choosing the same photographer for both your maternity and newborn sessions, you ensure a consistent style and aesthetic throughout your images which will be consistent in your home when hanging prints. This cohesion enhances the visual storytelling aspect, creating a cohesive collection of photographs that beautifully document your journey from pregnancy to parenthood.
2. Building a Relationship: Pregnancy and the arrival of a newborn are deeply personal and intimate moments in your life. Booking both sessions with the same photographer allows you to establish a rapport and build a relationship. This familiarity helps create a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere during your newborn session when you and your baby may already be adjusting to the presence of the photographer. I recently just did this and when I was with the family with the newborn we all were just friends hanging out!
3. Understanding Your Preferences: The photographer who captures your maternity session will become familiar with your preferences, desires, and any specific requests you might have. They will have a deeper understanding of your vision, preferred angles, poses, and lighting. This knowledge can be applied to the newborn session, ensuring that your expectations are met and resulting in a more personalized and satisfying experience.
4. Capturing the Complete Journey: Pregnancy is a transformative period filled with anticipation, excitement, and love. By booking both maternity and newborn sessions with the same photographer, you can document the complete journey from pregnancy to the arrival of your little one. The seamless transition between these sessions allows for a comprehensive and connected storytelling approach, presenting a meaningful narrative of your family’s growth.
5. Smooth running Experience: Coordinating with a single photographer for both sessions provides a streamlined and convenient experience. You can establish open communication, discuss ideas, preferences, and any concerns during the maternity session. This way, you can plan and prepare for the newborn session with ease, eliminating the need to familiarize a new photographer with your expectations and preferences.
6. Time and Scheduling: Juggling appointments and schedules during pregnancy and after childbirth can be challenging. Booking both sessions with the same photographer saves you time and effort when it comes to scheduling. You can discuss and plan the sessions well in advance, ensuring that the dates and times work for everyone involved. This streamlined process alleviates stress and allows you to focus on enjoying your photography experience.
7. Preserving the Photographer’s Creative Vision: Each photographer possesses a unique creative vision. By entrusting both your maternity and newborn sessions to the same photographer, you allow them to fully understand and execute their creative vision for your images. They can plan and prepare ideas that bridge the two sessions, resulting in a more artistic set of photographs that truly reflect your journey. My personal brand style is earthy tone boho emotive feelings.
8. Cost Savings: Booking both sessions with the same photographer often comes with financial benefits. As do I, I offer package deals for multiple sessions. By taking advantage of these offers, you can save money compared to booking your maternity and newborn sessions separately. This allows you to allocate more resources towards preserving and displaying your beautiful memories.
