Milestones
Your child’s life is filled with momentous events. Let’s document their growth.
Step-by-Step
These sessions are all about capturing the precious milestones that occur in the first year of your baby's life; grabbing their toes, giggling, putting everything in their mouths, tummy time, sitting up, crawling, etc! My goal is to capture those cherished details for you so that you have them for a lifetime! These sessions typically take place around 6 months.
Celebrate your baby's first year birthday by having a cake smash and splash! They are officially toddlers at this point and are beginning to show their personality. Cake smashes can make for a real fun session.
F.A.Q.
When should I book my session?
I recommend booking in advance as session availability is limited and my calendar fills up quickly. The sooner the better! It is best to inquire about scheduling a newborn or maternity session at the beginning of your second trimester. I do offer last minute if available, so please do not hesitate to contact me with the date inquiries!
How do I pay for a session?
Please refer to the investment page for information on session pricing. A non-refundable retainer is required to reserve a date on my calendar. I currently accept cash, check, and Credit Cards.
What if a member of my family is sick?
Sick babies and parents are not allowed in the studio. This is extremely important due to babies who are just days old who come into my studio frequently. If you must cancel an appointment, please call at least 24 hours in advance to reschedule.
Do you provide a print release?
With my digital collections, yes! These sessions include a print release for the high-resolution digital images. Clients are able to print as many copies as they want, wherever they want!
What print products do you offer?
Whitney D Photography offers both tabletop and wall prints, canvases, albums, and custom birth announcements.
How long does it take to receive my images?
Typically I have images ready for your viewing and ordering session within 5 days, sometimes sooner! Once you place your order, your images and products will be ready within 2 weeks. So that’s less than three weeks from the time of your session to when you have your finished images and prints.
Are you insured?
Yes!
Do you archive images?
Please back up your images as soon as you receive them. You can never have too many copies of your digital files for safekeeping. Things can happen to your computer, so I recommend saving them on both a hard drive and a cloud service. All images are archived for 12 months. While it's not guaranteed that they are still available, recovery of images past 12 months will be subject to an additional fee.
Do you charge tax?
Sales tax in the amount of 8.75% is applicable for all sessions and orders.
All images are the property Whitney D. Photography and are copyright protected. Please note that it is illegal to scan prints, right-click or screenshot images featured on the website or the blog, sell or alter images received in digital or print format.

Session Fees are due at time of booking.
The session fee covers the time and talent of the photographer and all that is required to run a successful studio. These fees do not include any prints or digitals - they are for the session only. Product and Digital Collections start at $275.
Milestone: $75
This session is recommended to capture your babies "milestones." Some examples are around 4 months when they are good at tummy time and lifting their head up. Or around 6-7 months when they can sit up well on their own. Sessions can take place in studio or on location and are up to 45 minutes.
1st Birthday Cake Smash and Bubble Bath: $125
This is a three-part custom session. First, your little one will be wearing an outfit of your choice and we will get great photos of them with the custom setup I created for you. Next, they have fun and dig into their first cake! And lastly, I bring out a little tub and they splash in the bubbles. This is normally their favorite part! Sessions take place in studio and are up to one hour. I will work with you ahead of time to talk about the theme of your session and I will create everything needed for your session. All you have to bring is the cake!
Watch Me Grow: $285
This includes a newborn session, one milestone session when your baby is around 6-7 months (we will also take your first family portrait at this session), and a 1st birthday session.
