 Frequently Asked Questions

 
 

  • WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING OUR NEWBORN SESSION?

    You can expect that per usual - nothing will go as planned and that is totally okay. As a mom, I’m prepared. We’ll turn on some calming music (I have a go-to playlist, but if there’s something that you love, by all means, we’ll use that!) and I’ll ask for a walk through of your home.

    I’ll watch the light and scope out various shots, and then we’ll begin. All babes are different—some sleep through the whole shoot, some have baby acne (which I edit out— or not depending on your preference), some have blowouts, some cry through 96% of our time together, and some need extra feeding breaks for comfort. It ’s all so beautifully normal— a testament to your new life. I always walk out with wonderfully intimate and beautiful photos that are 100% true to your family.

  • What i do.

    Pose baby and family naturally and seek out real emotional responses— details, touches, kisses,

    looks, that will tell your new love story.

  • what i don’t do.

    Position baby in unnatural poses or costumes—nope, not my thing.

“Naida is a professional and an artist. Not only was she more than timely with correspondence and our gallery, she also captured the love my family feels for one another. She even was able to keep our two year old happy while capturing magical pictures. I can’t recommend Naida enough!”

“We are new to the Cleveland area and used Naida for our newborn shoot for our first baby. We absolutely loved all of the pictures Naida took and working with her was so easy and straightforward. She was very flexible with our timeline as our baby came early. We had her do the shoot at our house and she was full of suggestions and flexible to our baby’s schedule. Would definitely use Naida again and again for pictures!”
