WELCOME, MAMA.
WE CAN’T WAIT TO SERVE AS YOUR HOUSTON NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER
Dear Marlowe Newborn Sessions are a wonderful way to capture your growing family or the family you've finally completed. As the premier Houston Newborn Photographer, we pride ourselves on documenting the most precious of moments in the most authentic way. We offer sessions in the privacy of your Home or in the comfort of our Studio—a curated space with natural light, boho accents, and beautiful neutral tones. Our Newborn Sessions follow an organic flow where Lifestyle is the focus and authenticity is our goal. As a Newborn client, we encourage you to spare the stress of shopping on your own and opt to borrow from our complimentary Client Closet of boutique and designer pieces for mama and littles. Dear Marlowe clients love how this feature makes styling simple, affordable, and fun!
Our Newborn Sessions offer three Collection options to meet your investment needs—ranging in session style, session length, number of high resolution digital files, and a product discount that can be applied toward albums, framed images, or loose prints. Your 20% non-refundable Retainer secures your Newborn Session and IS applied TOWARD your Collection Investment.
When also investing in a Classic or Keepsake Maternity Collection, you receive a combined discount on your Maternity AND Newborn Collection total, which is reflected on your final Newborn invoice. If you are interested in adding on a Milestone Session for your sweet babe’s 3, 6, 9, or 12 month, visit our Milestone Options.
DO YOU HAVE WARDROBE OPTIONS TO ACCOMMODATE POSTPARTUM BODIES?
With over 100 dresses to choose from, we guarantee you will find something picture perfect in our client closet! Because we won’t be photographing you from all angles, many dresses can remain unzipped or be clipped where extra fabric may be. Unlike dressing for an event, our photo session will be a curated experience where garments need not be a perfect fit to photograph well. Most of our dresses are flexible for brand new mamas up to size 16, however, if your sizing extends beyond this, we’re happy to add something new to our closet to meet your needs.
DO YOU RECOMMEND PROFESSIONAL HAIR AND MAKEUP FOR YOUR NEWBORN SESSION?
We understand that your photo session is an investment—and we want you to look your very best each and every time you look back on these memories. Nothing ties your day together more than a few hours of pampering with one of Houston’s top hair and makeup artists! We can’t recommend enough how adding this professional service to your day elevates your experience and your images. We have numerous recommendations for artists around the city convenient to your location and suggest inquiring several months in advance to ensure availability that coordinates with your photo session.
WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO HAVE OUR NEWBORN SESSION?
We focus on photographing babies in an organic, lifestyle manner and can hold sessions as early as week one or as late as week six. The earlier weeks capture babies at their sleepiest, newest stage with all of their Newborn details. Babies who are a bit older have grown into their looks a bit and may even offer more interaction; these later sessions also allow more recovery time for mom. Sessions are scheduled tentatively for the week following baby’s anticipated arrival.Should you wish to push your session back further after baby’s arrival, that’s totally a-ok!
