Session Breakdown – Poses, Props & Styling Details
PHOTO INSPIRATION – LET’S BRING YOUR VISION TO LIFE!
If there are specific setups from my portfolio that you’d love for your session, please send me a screenshot of these at least 2 days before your scheduled session. This helps me plan and ensure the best possible experience for you and your baby.
Important Guidelines:
📸 Please send a recent photo of your baby – so I can ensure the colours selected will complement their skin tone and features perfectly.
📷 Limit your selection to 5-8 images – keeping it focused allows for a well-balanced session.
🎀 Include a mix of wrapped and unwrapped shots – I require a combination of both, as a full session with only unwrapped or naked poses isn’t always possible.
🚫 Avoid sending only Composite images – Many of my setups involve digital composites, which require specific posing and editing. It’s important to select a variety of standard setups as well.
💕 Flexibility is key – while I’ll do my best to recreate your selected setups, every baby is different, and their comfort and safety always come first.
Thank you for your understanding - I can’t wait to capture beautiful memories for you! 💕

What to Expect – Session Details & Styling:
🎭 Five Unique Prop Setups – Thoughtfully styled for a variety of looks.
📸 A Beautiful Mix of Poses – Capturing baby naturally, partially wrapped, and snugly swaddled for a perfect blend of styles.
Important Session Guidelines:
🚫 A full session cannot consist only of unwrapped/naked baby poses like the images below.
⚠️ Please do not send all your inspiration images of these shots – a balanced session requires variety.
🎀 You must include fully wrapped shots like the examples shown to ensure a well-rounded session.
Important:
I can only dress your baby in one actual outfit for the session. If you’re selecting inspiration images where the baby is wearing an outfit, please keep in mind that we can recreate the setups, but your baby will be in the same outfit for all.
To ensure a smooth session, please do not send multiple images featuring different outfits, as frequent outfit changes can be disruptive and aren’t always possible. Thank you for understanding! 💕
Examples of Swaddled and Partially Wrapped Shots
SNUG, SWEET & BEAUTIFUL
Here are examples of Swaddled and Partially Wrapped Shots, where your baby is wrapped in soft, delicate fabrics for a timeless and adorable look. These poses not only create a sense of warmth and security for your little one but also allow for a seamless and efficient session. Babies tend to stay calmer and more settled when swaddled, making these setups ideal for capturing peaceful, dreamy images.
Both Swaddled and Partially Wrapped Shots are a fantastic way to maximize the number of images in your gallery, allowing for a greater selection without frequent outfit changes or complex posing adjustments. With smooth transitions between props and backdrops, these setups help expand your gallery, capturing different angles, textures, and styling. They ensure a larger, more diverse gallery while keeping your baby comfortable, content, and perfectly posed throughout the session.
In addition to fully wrapped shots, partially wrapped poses offer a beautiful balance between snug, swaddled setups and more natural wrapped images. These shots allow tiny hands, feet, or delicate features to peek through, adding an extra touch of sweetness and variety to your gallery. They are perfect for capturing a mix of cozy and natural moments, ensuring baby remains secure and comfortable while still showcasing their little details.
