The AKP Newborn Experience
Because they're only little for a little while
Here's what to expect from your first consult to product delivery
STEP ONe
The Consultation
After you fill out the inquiry form, a member of our team will be in touch within 24 hours to go over FAQ, the experience, pricing, and scheduling/booking. We will discuss your vision for the session, availability, and customizations.
If added, mom will begin with hair & makeup while Ally and Gina work comfortably posing baby onto various scenes. With Ally's guidance- every image is sure to be perfection. Reserve 1 hour for our newborn mini, 2-3 hours for full in studio sessions and 1.5 hours for in home sessions. We keep the studio warmed to 82 degrees for baby's comfort.

Image Selection
You will select your final images the day of your shoot, and receive the final edits to a private online gallery within 2 weeks. Most newborn clients add on heirloom products such as albums, collage frames and other wall art.
If you added products, you will receive your album or wall art pieces within a month.

FAQ
"Can we do posed images in my home?"
"How much can I expect to spend on my newborn portrait investment?"
"What do I need to bring?"
"Can I include my other child(ren) and partner?"
"What if my baby doesn't sleep or is fussy?"
We do offer in home sessions, but they are more casual and focused on your in home setting and your family together, not the posed/styled images we take in studio. You can find examples of both types of sessions in our newborn portfolio.
Your shopping list is minimal, if nonexistent, for your newborn session! We want you focused on relaxing at home bonding with the baby, not out buying off a shopping list for your session. We make the experience easy for our clients- meaning our studio carries everything necessary for a successful newborn portrait session.
With almost a decade of experience under our belt, we've encountered all types of baby personalities- wide awake and curious, milk drunk, gassy, colicky, fussy- you name it. Yet for every single session, we have taken our time and still provided a beautiful gallery for our clients. We have many tricks under our sleeve to soothe babies and get "the shot." It is very important to hire someone experienced with newborns specifically, as this genre takes years of special training and experience- they don't call us the baby whisperers for nothing!
Most of our packages include family or parent posing. Some families only want portraits of their baby, so we offer packages dependent on your preference!
Investment begins at $800 and our options include wall art, albums, folio boxes and digital files. Cash payment is preferred. A 3.5% service charge will be added to payment made by card.
"Do you offer a bundle for multiple packages?"
Yes! Ask about our popular Belly to Baby program, where we will be able to capture all of your baby's first year milestones in a consistent fashion.
