Dean – Hospital Newborn Session – Michigan Newborn Photographer

Our First Moments Sessions, often referred to as Fresh 48 or Hospital Newborn Sessions, are the most underrated perk of our Milestone Collections. I stand behind this statement 100 percent. Whether this is your first baby or your last, this session is beautifully documented art of the first moments of your baby’s life. That’s pretty powerful.

Three Reasons Why You Should do a First Moments Session

  1. The Details – These are the focus of this session. The hospital bands, the wrinkly toes, the umbilical cord, the peach fuzz… It may seem like these details will stay for a while so you can soak them in, but the reality is that they change quickly. And more often than not, you are in survival mode and won’t get as much time to lock them into your memory as you think you will.

2. The bond – This chapter of your parenting story is on it’s very first page. How cool is that?! These moments are some of the most important of your entire life. You can now officially hold your baby in your arms. You can see their features, smell them, kiss their cheeks, do skin-to-skin. All of these moments are monumental and deserve to be documented.

3. The Story – I am guessing that you, the reader, don’t have photos like this from when you were born. But I am pretty confident that you wish you did. These are the first moments of your baby’s life. For them to be able to look back and relive it through images would be a priceless gift to be able to give them.

Now that I’ve tugged on your heart strings (and ovaries), lets go back to my original statement. The First Moments Session is the most underrated perk of our Milestone Collections. What I mean by this is that you have the option to add this session on for a discounted rate to any of our Milestone Collections. Or you can swap it out for one of the sessions in our collections.

Don’t miss this opportunity to document the FIRSTS. You’ll never regret having these moments preserved forever. Email hello@visionphotomi.com or Contact Us Here for more information.

Welcome to the Vision Family, Jack!

This handsome boy brought along his big fur-brother, Calvin to his session and I am so glad he did! I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a pup more proud. He is going to be the best big brother. Jack was a sleepy piece of perfection and I love all of images we were able to capture during this session. He’s signed up for a Milestone Collection so we get to see this sweet boy grow and I can’t wait! – Sam

If you have a maternity session booked or are contemplating whether or not to do one and don’t know what to bring, we are here to help!

Here are Three Tips on How to Personalize Your Pregnancy Photoshoot

  1. Bring in an ultrasound picture or photo strip – This is one of the safest ways to make sure you never lose or damage your ultrasound pictures. Plus it makes the sweetest prop for you to hold, second to holding your baby bump

2. Bring cute baby clothes and/or shoes – This can be a simple onesie or something more personalized with a nickname or even baby’s name if you can commit to that before baby is born!

3. If you’re married, incorporate something from the wedding or from dating – Afterall, its because two people fell in love that the little one is on their way so paying homage to the relationship will be something sweet that your child will appreciate more. This mama brought her robe that she got ready in on her wedding day. See pictures below!

For your maternity session, you have the freedom to bring anything that reflects your personal style and makes the session uniquely yours. From the initial scheduling inquiry, we’ll collaborate closely to determine the ideal location (our Rochester, MI studio, your home, an outdoor location that reflects your style etc.), atmosphere, and outfit selection that you feel beautiful and confident in. Additionally, we offer access to our client closet, providing you with a variety of dresses and bodysuits options to help make the planning process simple. We also offer professional hair/makeup and prenatal massage options after you finish your shoot. Your session is all about capturing the essence of this special moment in your life, but more importantly, it’s about celebrating you because, well, you are growing a human and that’s pretty amazing! Also, we have milestone collections to cover your baby’s first year to help you rest assured that all those sweet details will be captured.

Wilson Family – Baby #2 Maternity

I am SO EXCITED for this sweet family and their new baby coming soon. Logan is going to be the best big brother and I can’t wait to find out if they are having a baby boy or girl. Either way, that is one lucky little baby to have a family like theirs. Laura got to model our new couch and chaise chair coming to the studio for spring. And she is wearing two of my favorite maternity dresses (more colors and styles coming to the client closet soon!) Thanks for another wonderful maternity session and we can’t wait to watch your new baby grow! xoxo – Jenay
