Maternity and Baby Collections

Mom to be – $149

Includes half an hour of photography at your home or other location of your choice – in a style to suit your comfort with a few different poses alone and with your significant other, nearly immediate review of images to decide what you’d like for prints. Includes a retouched 8×10 enlargement.

Baby’s First Year – $99

This is a very specially priced collection to celebrate the birth of your child. The first year of a child’s life is one that has the most rapid changes. We want to make sure you get a fantastic record of these changes. This collection includes four sessions of photography at your home or other location of your choice. The sessions can be “Newborn, three months, six months and 12 months” or “Three, six, nine and 12 months.” At the end of the year, you’ll receive a wall plaque of four images – one from each session – with your child’s name as a very special keepsake.

Now, to be upfront with you, most parents just can’t wait for a whole year to get images and so they buy a few along the way. For reasonable additional fees, we can provide enlargements for you and for grandparents, as well as announcement cards, albums and other keepsakes. Please ask to find out more about these exciting products.

“I hired Neil to do some portrait shots for myself, and was amazed by his work! He is an expert in his field of photography. I was more than pleased with his work, and continually recommend Neil for his creative work.”

“Portrait Session With Prints” Collections

“Your Home is Your Castle” collections

These collections are for photos shot at your home, where you and your family will likely be most comfortable, at a time we arrange together. I bring in lighting which I know how to use to be the most flattering and bring out your best features. Then I find a great corner in your home that shows your personality and lifestyle, many people are worried their house is either too messy or too boring – but I have the experience and design sense to find the most appropriate section to use. And have you noticed how movies can make a fairly dull scene look great through lighting and “selective” cropping? Finally I create poses which bring out your best features and create a dynamic, pleasing picture.
