Documenting Parenthood: A Guide to Maternity and Newborn Sessions

Get ready for a deep dive into maternity and newborn sessions! Melissa takes you alongside her as she captures a total of 6 different maternity and newborn sessions. She shares her tried and tested session workflows that allow her to create a fantastic client experience while also creating timeless images for her clients to look back on.

This course will teach you the go-to poses for maternity sessions to help your clients look and feel their best and to provide a wide variety of images in their final gallery. This course also shares important information on session timing, styling and location for maternity sessions to make sure your clients get the most for their investment!

You’ll be able to go behind the scenes with Melissa on a couple-only maternity session, a maternity session with a toddler and a maternity session with multiple children. Watch how Melissa approaches each of these sessions differently and learn how to cater your client experience to best meet their needs.

When it comes to newborn sessions, this course leaves no questions unanswered. Starting with a lesson on baby safety (which is the most important aspect of a newborn session), to baby-led posing to capturing the highly requested sibling photo (which can be especially difficult when the older sibling is usually a toddler!), Melissa will walk you step-by-step through her newborn session workflow.

You’ll get first hand experience at a twin newborn session, a newborn session with one older/toddler sibling and a newborn session with 3 older siblings. From fussy babies, to constant spitting up to crying older siblings, these behind-the-scenes sessions will prepare you to deal with whatever comes your way in your next newborn session.
