Check out All Seasons Photography. She's a vendor on here, and has a site on Facebook. I think she is reasonably priced. I've used her the past few years for my Christmas pictures and have always been happy with them. You get all the images on a CD, and she edits the best of them for you.

We use Nicole Rochelle Photography also on Facebook. She often runs mini session promotions.

Try contacting Three14 photography. They are a vendor on LIF. I won a mini family session at a GTG and Jahn was fantastic and the pictures were very nice!

I just used Anne Hack for newborn photos and LOVE them. And she was so sweet to work with!! I did have to take DS to her place, but it actually worked out better because we don't have a ton of room, and with a 4 YO and newborn its a disaster. Chat Icon

I used Melissa Calise. She has a fb Melissa Calise Photography. I thought she was excellent. I dont know how much you want to spend but I didnt find her to be that expensive compared to some other people I looked at.

Try www.kellmurphyphotography.com she did my sons first bday and cake smash and we were very happy with her. Stay away from Sweet Blossoms - very unprofessional! PM if you want details why.

i would be hesitant to use jc penny or picture people for a newborn shoot - for older kids i think they are great.
i used to work there years ago (maybe things changed), but when i worked there they did not train you to work with newborns so propping them up and getting them at a good angle is challenging. and the props, back drops, blankets etc were not cleaned often, so if you do go with them, bring your own stuff.

Yeah, definitely not for newborns!

I used Sweet Blossom for my son's 6 month pictures and his first birthday cake smash. I have already booked her mini sessions. I cannot imagine that anyone had a bad experience -- she is soooo nice and accommodating!!!

good to know

newborn photography is definitely a specialty and boutique service that I wouldn't trust a chain store to know how to do properly.

I actually have a lot of respect for Kristen (Sweet Blossom). She loved photography, gave up practicing law, and has thrown herself into photography, she has a young son and another on the way and I really think that we women should stick together and support one another because we are all trying to jungle busy lives and our family and do the best we can.

Check out Anne Hack. I used her for my DD's christening pics and she did a nice job and was very reasonable. I like her page on FB and she posts some really great newborn shots.
