ARE YOU READY TO CREATE CUSTOM ARTWORK FOR YOUR FAMILY?

I STILL HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

How far in advance should I book my newborn session?

I recommend you schedule your newborn session as far in advance as you can! Typically it’s best to do it before your little one arrives (because it gets quite chaotic afterward)! The best time to book is while you’re still about 25-30 weeks pregnant (or when you book your maternity session) so that we can reserve your date!

How do I book a date for my newborn session if my baby isn't born yet?

Because babies are not always born “on time” I ask that you book your session on your due date to give us an approximated timeline to be able to reserve your session. After your little bundle of joy is born, we will connect and set an exact date for your session.

Do I need to buy outfits for my baby to wear for their Newborn session?

I offer a beautifully curated selection of tiny outfits specially made and crafted for newborn babies. Typically any outfits you find online, or in stores that advertise as being “newborn” size are MUCH too big for these tiny little humans. This is why I provide perfectly sized newborn outfits, wraps, headbands, bonnets, caps, and accessories that are perfect for Newborn portraits. I also offer wardrobe options for Mom in my seasonally curated Client Wardrobe. Don’t worry, you will get to hand-pick each item during the consultation so we are sure to have something that you will love for your Milwaukee Newborn session!

Do you have a Payment Plan?

Yes, I do offer payment plans for all of my portrait sessions upon request. 

How old should my baby be for a newborn session?

Newborn sessions are best done within the first 5-14 days (2 weeks) after birth for those adorable sleepy photos! But life happens, so if your baby is a little older that is ok — we can still get some adorable newborn photos! Trust me, you don’t want to miss out on capturing those initial moments!

How long is a newborn session?

Because sometimes little ones aren’t always on the schedule we’d like them to be, my newborn sessions are scheduled for up to 4-hours.
Just in case we have a blowout, or babe needs to eat and be rocked back to sleep. However, not all newborn sessions require the full 4 hours; sometimes they’re shorter (anywhere from 2-4 hours)!

Are family portraits included in a Newborn session?

Yes! Family portraits are included in all of my Milwaukee Newborn Photography Sessions in addition to individual photos of your new bundle of joy! I also try to include portraits of Mom and baby, Dad and baby, and photos with the siblings in all of my Milwaukee Newborn Photography sessions. 

What is included in the investment?

Your Choice of location: in our Caledonia studio, in the hospital or birthing center you deliver your baby in (fresh 48-hour), or in your home.

– Personalized styling for your session

– Your choice of newborn wraps, outfits, headbands, bonnets, and props from my collection.

– Access to a seasonally curated wardrobe for moms and babies

LOVELY NOTES

REAL QUOTES FROM REAL CLIENTS

“The end results are STUNNING!”

From idea to final product, the whole process was smooth and easy. Rachel had excellent recommendations on how to prepare and what to wear for the best pictures. She was upbeat, encouraging, and patient with my girls throughout the photo shoot. Her studio has beautiful lighting and is spotless. She was flexible with adding in ideas we had last minute.
The end results are STUNNING! I could not be happier with how she has captured my family and daughters.
Absolutely recommend her to anyone!

from START to FINISH, Rachel provided excellent service”

Let me say that from START to FINISH, Rachel provided excellent service as we talked about color and outfit selections, what things I would or wouldn’t like, keeping things comfortable during photos, her staying patient throughout the shoot while managing 2 littles’ personalities and the post photo shoot process including turn around time of viewing and choosing favorites after editing completed.

Thank you Rachel Harmeling Photography for capturing these memories that we will cherish forever ❤️
