Minneapolis Newborn Photographer Northfield Photography studio

Real Smiles It seems like the top thing parents worry about at sessions is if their kids have “real smiles”. I have lots of prompts, tricks, and silly games that will get genuine happy faces. Plan on some more traditional posed pictures, and a lot of more relaxed pictures. We will plan, laugh, have fun, and make great memories during the session. Offer Rewards, Not Punishments Over the years I have found kids respond better when they are offered something as a reward after the session, versus a punishment or having a toy taken away. Popular rewards are ice cream, McDonalds, ect.

LET'S CHAT

WHAT TO EXPECT WITH STEPHANIE BENNETT PHOTOGRAPHY

STUDIO VISIT & PLANNING THE SESSION

Before you even book a session with me, you are invited to visit the studio and we can discuss your session and get to know each other. From the start, listening to your goals and wants is my priority, and we will build your session around that. I also feel that connecting well with your photographer is a huge part having fun at the session and images that you love.

DAY OF THE SESSION

Studio sessions are laid back. Most little ones arrive in jammies, we have plenty of time built into the session. The studio is also stocked with snacks and refreshments, as well as toys and streaming services for older siblings.

Outdoor sessions are fun and filled with games to keep kids engaged. We will get the posed smiling picture that everyone wants for holiday cards – but also capture the true spirit of your family.

VIEWING APPOINTMENT

This is everyone’s favorite part – and parents describe it as both exciting and emotional.

Your images will be beautifully presented in a slideshow and some as wall art. This is when you choose your session’s included images and have the option to purchase additional prints and heirloom wall art, albums, and more.

Prefer to look at the gallery at home on your own? No problem, viewing can be done online too.

Decorate Your Home With The People You Love

While all sessions include digital images, I know that some families also want printed products to display in their homes.

I offer a full range of prints and products from the leading professional print labs both nationally and internationally. These products like prints, albums, wall art (including framed prints, canvas wraps, wooden prints, and more).

I truly believe that if you invest in professional photography, those pictures should also be printed professionally. You can look over the many products I offer at the studio if you schedule a studio visit before your session, during your studio session, or at your gallery reveal appointment.

You can also view some of the available prints and products below.

DON’T FORGET THESE MOMENTS

Let’s celebrate your family, with sessions that capture the excitement, joy, laughter, and excitement of this phase of parenthood.
