FAQ
When is the best
time to schedule maternity photos?
Generally, between 32-36 weeks is best but every momma is different. Reach out once you start showing, but know we can always adjust the date depending on how your baby grows!
What will my
maternity photo session
be like?
Your New Jersey maternity photography session will be a joyful, meaningful and comfortable experience. Our intention is for these sessions to be a fun experience for everyone involved, including your partner or kiddos. We will guide you through some poses and aim to capture beautiful moments of interaction. It’s these little moments between you and your family that you will cherish forever.
What if I'm feeling insecure about how I look during my pregnancy?
This is a very natural and normal feeling that most mommas-to-be experience. Our number one priority is to make you look AND feel your best during our time together. You will look fantastic in your photographs.
How soon should I have my newborn session after giving birth?
The sooner the better! Newborns tend to stay sound asleep a few days after birth and because of this we are able to gently move your little one into sweet poses that capture how tiny they are. After a couple of weeks, babies begin to stretch and the poses won’t be as easy to do.
​
But the beauty of lifestyle photography is that the session is less reliant on poses, with the overall goal being authentic storytelling. We can photograph your baby beautifully at any time, even if they're a little older!
When is the best time to book my newborn portrait session?
The best time is before your little one is born. Your due date will be your session date so that we can be sure that you are on our calendar for that month. Once your baby is born and you are ready to go home, all you have to do is send us an email and from there we’ll schedule a definitive session date and time.
Once you book your newborn photo shoot session we'll send you a detailed email with all the information you need to know including scheduling once the baby is here, what you can expect from your session, how to prep yourself and your baby and other helpful insights and tips.
Can I incorporate sibling
and family photos with my baby?
Absolutely! Photographing your little one surrounded by family is an incredible experience for everyone involved. You will want to book the Family Session and let us know you have a baby on the way.
But what if my house isn't "pretty" enough...
If you have at least one good-sized window and a door that leads to outside, we are good to go. We know, because you’re here, that your house is full of love, and that’s all we need.
​
Plus, we only suggest a regular-clean space, not in-laws-during-the-holidays-clean!
​
We can also split our time between your home and another spot that’s meaningful to your family.
I want to capture this amazing time in our life, but I'm not sure that my CRaZY family can pull it off...
We help families with babies and kids and of all ages relax and have fun together. We'll suggest movement, games, and prompts—and even crack corny jokes—to help evoke natural expressions and interactions.
​
Your kids will feel like they’re on a play date, not at a super boring photo shoot. Our goal isn't to get them to sit still – which means you can relax, too!
I'm ready! What do I do next?
Yay! We're so excited to work together.
