WHAT IS A SITTER SESSION?

Sitter sessions take place once your baby can comfortably sit up on their own without any support and before they start crawling. This is typically between 6-10 months but, as with everything, can vary from baby to baby.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

We strive for the utmost professionalism, to maintain that we follow a few guidelines, policies, and work ethics. You are requested to read and understand the below-mentioned details carefully. We suggest you book the session with us only if you are ok with our work process and terms & conditions.

As we only book a certain number of sessions each month, we recommend booking as early as your first scan.

WHEN TO BOOK A SITTER SESSION?

- Sitter sessions can be done once your baby can comfortably sit up on their own without any support and before they start crawling. This is typically between 6-10 months, but as with everything, it can vary from baby to baby.

ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT SCHEDULING?

- Yes! Please keep in mind your child’s nap schedule and vaccinations. Our goal is to photograph a happy baby! Although they are always unpredictable in how they will act once here, we like to get as many factors on our side as possible. So please do not schedule your photoshoot for at least a few days after they get a vaccine to ensure they aren’t fussy or sore from it. Also, please let us know when the baby typically naps so I can do my best to schedule a time when they are fresh and not ready to go to sleep. Also, feed your baby before coming so they are not hungry.

 

PROPS & SETUPS:

- Setup or theme is the ambiance that is created for the frame to be photographed. It includes the background, floor, concept and lighting methods.

- You do not have to bring anything with you. We have all the necessary things which suit our style of photography.  Minimal props depending on package you book will be used. We like to use the props that we own and that goes with our style of photography. All photographers like to stick to their own style. We do not copy other photographer’s work. Baby photo-shoots are based on baby's mood and flexibility, so no matter what we discuss and decide for props and poses we might have to adjust everything according to the baby's comfort.

- Depending on the setups you choose, we will provide the baby's outfits on the day of the session.

- Detailed information regarding setups and parents’s outfits will be discussed after booking.
