NEWBORNS
Welcome to Chani Kay Photography
Newborn Portrait Photographer
Jerusalem - Beit Shemesh - Modiin, Israel
For nine long months you carry them safely tucked under your very own heart, and soon they will be here, in your loving arms.
But before you even realize it, his beautiful face will begin to fill out, her tiny fingers and toes will grow, you won't be able to hold him in one hand curled right up under your chin as you kiss his little hair swirls. Those perfect tiny features -- and the incredible, breathtaking miracle of them -- will be all but a blur, leaving you to wonder where the time ran off to.
You get one chance at this mama, one small window to capture and preserve all these details that fill your heart to overflowing, what they look like, what they feel like...
Just this one chance to bottle it all up beautifully, so you can revisit it whenever you want to, for a lifetime.
I've been where you are and this is what I have learned:
They won't fit in your arms forever. So let's make sure you will always remember what it felt like when they did.
About Your Newborn Portrait Session
My sweet spot for photographing newborns is between 1-3 weeks after birth, but babies can be photographed beautifully at any age and many of the newborns you see in my portfolio are much older than that - even up to about 6-7 weeks. So if you think you've missed the window because your baby is older than 3 weeks reach out anyway!
Sessions take place in my fully-equipped, comfortable Beit Shemesh home studio where I have designated rooms for both posed and lifestyle sessions to create your dream newborn portraits perfectly suited to you. All outfits, props and accessories needed for baby are included so you don't have to worry about a thing. I have a client closet with outfits for siblings up to about 5 years old as well for perfectly coordinated styling.
The best time to book your newborn portrait session is during your last trimester or as soon as you can after birth. Even if you don't feel comfortable booking before giving birth, I encourage you to get in touch during your pregnancy to discuss sessions and styling options so that once your baby is here all that is left to do is book your date and arrive.
Sessions are planned and guided but always baby-led, with gentle touch, abundant patience, and lots of time built in for feeding, soothing and snuggling your baby. For this reason sessions can take between 2-4 hours.
After your session, your images are retouched and artistically edited and delivered to you digitally. Prints, albums and museum-quality wall art can be purchased a la carte after your session, with all details taken care of from design to delivery.
Pricing
Pricing begins at 1500 NIS and your session can include parents, siblings and even grandparents for a deeply meaningful multi-generational portrait experience.
