Wardrobe is very important. A variety of different colors, or keeping it very simple with neutral, whites, cream , tans and /or earth tones is what I prefer. I ask my clients to please contact me first to discuss what you and your family will be wearing before the session. . For maternity, I would suggest you wear something fitted with not to many patterns. I also provide maternity gowns if you are interested you will receive a link to my gowns once booked. We will go over this on our consult call or meeting.
Do I have to pay anything before my session?
Yes, a non refundable session fee is due to reserve your session date or expected due date if newborn session, the collection cost is due before or day of session.
