Sarah Lough Photography is no ordinary studio. With 8 years of experience under my belt, including attendance at workshops and classes on a regular basis, I create original works of art in a heartfelt and professional manner. My images are widely known for their striking use of natural light, and I have won several awards along the way. I am excited and priviledged to share a moment in your family's new journey.

I have 3 children of my own; Julianne, 10, Isaac, 8, and Samuel, 6. My wonderful husband of 12 years, David, is a custom woodworker and carpenter.

CAPTURING NEW LIFE ABOUT ME

a little bit about me I truly believe there is not a moment more magical than when one becomes a parent. It is an honor to be a part of capturing this amazing process, and documenting one of the most special times in life. Newborns are incredible creatures. They teach us so much about human nature, the essence of life, and living in the present. My job in photographing these wonderful little people goes far beyond just snapping a few shots of your new family member; I aim to capture a unique moment in time and the emotions along with it. The photos from your session will become a family treasure to be enjoyed again and again.

Dad, Uncle, and even Grandma have a digital SLR. Why not just have one of them take your newborn's first photographs? While it's ultimately up to you to decide how you'd like your baby's first few weeks of life documented, I believe hiring an experienced professional is the ideal way to get wonderful results.

HIRING AN EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONAL IS THE IDEAL WAY TO GET THE RESULTS YOU WANT

Believe it or not, my job goes far beyond snapping the shutter. Photography is an art; one that requires experience and practice to achieve worthy results. At Sarah Lough Photography, I work one-on-one with each client to deliver images with an artistic style tailored to your family's character. I offer a choice of session styles, archival products, image retouching, and years of experience with posing to bring clients

amazing and consistent results. Additionally, I have available a large selection of props and outfits you may choose from, and are willing to literally sweat for hours to get baby happy in a heated room!

hiring a professional photographer

planning for successAs soon as baby comes, it's non-stop late nights and hard work for Mom and Dad. Coordinating a photo session seems like the last thing on your list of priorities. This is why I recommend booking your session at least 2-4 months in advance of your due date to make sure everything is lined up ahead of time and you don't have to worry! Once your little bundle of joy arrives, please contact me to let me know the news. I will work closely with you or a family member to find a day and time that works for everyone. Newborns are best photographed under 2 weeks of age; the ideal timing before 9 days.

The golden rule of newborn photography: babies are unpredictable! At just a few days old, a regular feeding, sleeping, and potty schedule is not to be expected. I understand this, and as a result require a minimum of 3 hours blocked out for posed sessions, and ideally 1 hour for lifestyle sessions. Although I have my bag of tricks to make the process efficient and fun for everyone, it really all comes down to how baby's feeling.

For posed sessions, I ask that parents relax while I pose and photograph your sleeping newborn. Feel free to catch a few Zzz's, or have a snack. I will call you in immediately if baby needs something - which he or she probably will! Of course, parents are welcomed and encouraged to participate in lifestyle images. Shots with Mom, Dad, and Baby are beautiful reminders of the emotion and excitement of this special time in life.

With a new baby - everything is new! It takes time to get into a rhythm with your little angel, and predicting when naptime will happen is generally difficult. However, if you can manage to have baby fed and changed before the shoot, this will increase chances of sleep! If you have any outfits or props you'd like included in the photos, please lay them out ahead of time in a place easily accessible.
