DC Area At Home Newborn Session | Baby KJ
May 16, 2021 By  Teresa With  0 Comment
In  Children  /  Families  /  Newborns

I love storytelling, and having a DC Area at home newborn session allow me to just that! Ideally, we want your session to be in just one day, but if schedules don’t accommodate that, I’ll sometimes break a newborn session into two! I did that for sweet little KJ, whose dad is in the military and couldn’t be part of the sleepy newborn session, so I documented her portraits when she was just about three weeks old and then came back a few weeks later to capture her room and the whole family!

I have wraps, some simple, classic outfits, baskets, fillers, hats, and headbands to share with my family but in my six years of being a photographer and offering a DC area at home newborn session, I have realized my families like to incorporate more of their own personal items, and I love it since it means my galleries have great variety! It also helps me tell their stories better. I love showing off the nursery you worked so hard on, the many gifts from important family and friends, and showing the connection between the family and baby. (And be sure to check out KJ’s sweet little heart birthmark at the bottom of the gallery! )

What is great about me coming to you is that you don’t have to stress about being late or forgetting anything, especially if it is your first. Everything you need is RIGHT THERE. Snacks, burp cloths, extra diapers, changes of clothes, all of the details… you can’t forget anything. You’re in the place where you’re most comfortable, and that always shows in the photos. It’s a huge part of why I love those at-home newborn sessions versus a studio.

The best time to book a newborn session is any time between twenty weeks and the start of third trimester. Sometimes, it works if you book later, but it is harder for me to guarantee availability, especially during the school year since I teach full-time. Head over to my contact page to get in touch.

    My 7:20 am National Mall mini slot for August 20 is still available! Tag a friend you think might be interested. Details are in my most recent blog on www.tcjdesign.com.
    Families with older kids, please get your photos taken, too. Documenting all milestones are important… and your oldest going off to college is definitely one of them!

    When our photographer canceled, I bought a tripod and just attempted photos myself. Not as much fun for me, but I got in the frame!
    If you are on my mailing list, tomorrow evening you will want to check your email! Access happens around 7 p.m. for tree farm minis! This year they will be held on November 5 with an inclement weather date of November 6. The link will go out to the general public not on my mailing list on Thursday morning at 9 a.m. These usually book fast, and pricing wise, they're my best deal of the year, so Merry Christmas a bit early! :) 🎄

    I've been fighting some website issues since Friday that haven't been resolved, but that doesn't mean that I can't advertise that my National Mall Minis are happening again on August 20! 

Sessions will be 25 minutes long and held near the Lincoln Monument. Exact location will be dependent on weather and lighting. Cost is $375 (and that includes the permit fee) and includes your choice of 10 digital images from the edited gallery. For $150 more, you can have all of the images from your gallery! (If we have bad weather, we will reschedule is Sunday, August 21.)

This also includes consultation prior to session, access to my styling service, session fee, online gallery of edited images, and print release for all images. Only six people are allowed for these sessions. Additional family members are $20 per person. (You can have 12 people if you book an hour.) 

Because of the permit fee, there is no returning client discount. Maryland sales tax will be added to the listed price. Clients can purchase prints in gallery store. To book, go here: https://tcjdesign.hbportal.co/schedule/60e34d525768d7003239e230

One slot has already been taken!
    I'm so bad at blogging and social media, but summer is finally slowing down for me to catch up on photography. This cutie's first birthday finally has a permanent place on my website. Check her out! https://tcjdesign.com/blog-southern-maryland-family-photographer/
    Happy belated Fourth of July! I’ve been especially quiet lately and stepped a bit back from taking sessions when the school year ended since my family went on vacation, my husband retired from the Air Force (yesterday), and I’ve been on call for jury duty. I’ll be taking very limited sessions this school year since I’ve had a bit of an increased load this school year, but I will be opening a few August dates. Tree farm sessions are still happening! More details on those soon! I promise I’m not gone for good, and I’ve been doing a lot of engagement sessions over at @tcjdesignweddings if you want to check them out!
