Investment Details
Your newborn session is more than just photographs—it’s the preservation of your family’s first story together. From the comfort of your home to the timeless beauty of the final images, every detail is designed to make this process as effortless and meaningful as possible.
When you choose Nicole Berkley Portraits, you’re choosing an experience that ensures your memories are captured with care, grace, and artistry.
Before the session
From the moment you book, I take care of every detail to make this process effortless and enjoyable. You’ll receive a detailed session prep guide with tips on planning your family’s wardrobe, preparing your home, and even helping your other children or pets feel included and at ease during your session.
Mothers are welcome to borrow from my curated collection of elegant, soft, and neutral new mama gowns—a growing wardrobe designed to flatter and celebrate you. I’ll also provide all newborn wardrobe and accessories, including beautiful, timeless outfits and cozy swaddles, ensuring everything feels cohesive and effortless.
session day
A peaceful, unhurried morning at home. The world fades away as you soak in these quiet moments with your beautiful new baby. No need to pack a bag or venture across town—I come to you, where everything you need is right at hand.
Together, we’ll create a relaxed atmosphere where you can focus entirely on what matters most: your family. This is your chance to pause, breathe, and simply be with your little one, turning off the whirlwind of diapers, laundry, and to-dos for a while.
The result? Stunning images that capture the love, connection, and joy of this chapter in your life. A gallery you’ll cherish forever.
after the session
A few weeks after your session, you’ll gather as a family to watch a heartfelt slideshow of your gallery for the first time. Set to music, this video showcases the beauty and emotion of your images.
From there, your interactive online gallery will guide you through selecting your favorite images for digital download, which are included in your package. You’ll also have the option to customize heirloom portrait products, such as albums and framed artwork, to preserve these memories in a way that fits your family perfectly. No meetings, no pressure—just your insanely gorgeous photos that you won't be able to stop looking at!
