Three J's Photography FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions

---

All sessions are done within 14 days after the birth of your child.  Unless your baby has to spend some time in the NICU and then we will schedule based off of their release and medical clearance.
You will contact me before you leave the hospital so that we can set up the session within that time period.

The Petite Wrapped Newborn Session is 45-60 minutes.  

The Signature and Luxe Newborn sessions run approximately 2-3 hours.

I highly recommend booking your session in the beginning of your second trimester to ensure availability.  You’re also welcome to book before that as well!  Also, I always try and accommodate any last minute bookings if my calendar allows it - I never want anyone to miss out! 

All other sessions (sitter sessions, first birthday sessions) I suggest booking at least 30 days in advance.

Parent images are included in the Signature and Luxe newborn session packages and is available as an add on with the Petite Wrapped Newborn package.  I always encourage parents to take pictures with their baby - Your little one is only this teeny tiny once and you will never get this time back!

I supply all of the props needed.  All you need to bring are yourselves - sit back, relax and I take care of the rest!

Have a family heirloom or something sentimental you want photographed with your baby?  You are welcome to bring these!  Please let me know prior to the session so that I can plan accordingly.

Sibling images are included in the Signature and Luxe packages and available as an add on for the Petite Wrapped packages.  

Siblings are welcome to join us for the last 15-20 minutes of the session. 

• Your newborn is my number-one priority and requires my full attention.  Newborns can also sense when mommas are anxious and tense which can affect the session flow. I ask that Dads or family helpers drop mom and baby off at the beginning of the session and return at a designated time.  This will ensure a smooth and relaxing environment.  If you don’t live close no worries! there’s plenty of food/coffee places nearby as well as stores and parks to occupy the time. I also recommend that siblings wear solid neutral colors as well to match or coordinate with parents.  

Studio cleanliness and safety is a top priority always but even more so during these times.

My studio is cleaned and sanitized before and after each session.  There will be 24 hours between each session.  All upholstery is sprayed down and every surface that has been touched is sanitized.  All props are sprayed down and all wraps that can be washed are washed and all others are left outside to air out.  

-Sessions will be immediately rescheduled due to illnesses.  

-I ask that temperatures be taken before coming to your session.  I will also be taking my temperature before each session.  I check temperatures upon arrival as well.

-Shoes must be removed before entering studio

-One personal bag allowed and placed in designated area

-Cell phones wiped down and sanitized 

-Hands wiped and sanitized

-No extra family members present during session. 

Myself and my assistant will wear a mask for the duration of the session.  I ask that clients where masks for duration of the session except during parent/family posing.  Masks will need to be removed prior to parent/family images.
