Babies don't keep, and time is a thief. Did you know babies are only considered "newborns" for 2 months? That is why the opportunity to get newborn photos taken is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Literally. Your baby will never be a newborn again!
At Pine and Bear Productions, we understand the sanctity of newborn photo sessions and we do NOT take our role as a photographer lightly. We have taken multiple safety courses, posing workshops, etc. to ensure that we capture your newborn as efficiently and safely as possible.
At Pine and Bear Productions we are fully vaccinated against the flu and COVID-19. We have had our Tdap shot and take every possible precaution to sanitize our equipment and props before use. We will also be happy to remain masked and gloved during the duration of the session, to ensure safety for all.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to do a newborn session?
Newborn photos should take place when the baby is between 7 and 21 days old.
Why should we do the newborn session between 7 and 21 days old?
In my extensive experience photographing newborns, babies younger than 7 days are incredibly sleepy and do not want to be moved or stretched. They only want to eat and sleep. Alternatively, babies older than 21 days have more strength and move more than babies younger than 21 days. Photographing babies older than 21 days can be unsafe if the babies are too strong or too mobile. That is why, at Pine and Bear Productions, we insist on photographing babies between the 7 and 21 day period.
My baby is older than 21 days. Does that mean you won't work with me?
Absolutely not! I can still capture images of your newborn baby past the 21 day mark. However, babies photographed after 21 days old are less likely to cooperate for photos (due to increased strength and mobility). In the event of a very mobile or unsettled baby, Pine and Bear Productions will have no choice but to proceed with wrapped poses only. This is the safest option for your baby!

Twin Newborn Session
Chaney truly came through for my twin girls newborn session!! Originally we had planned for me to go to her studio for the pictures, but I messaged her a few days before asking if she could come to us instead and she happily agreed! She turned our home into her studio and went to work capturing absolutely beautiful photos of my baby girls! She handled the girls with such care and took her time posing them to make sure she got just the right shot. Her editing skills are flawless, my babies had a bit of baby acne that I wanted edited out and she took her time to make sure the photos still looked natural but there wasn't a spot of baby acne on their faces. Her turnaround time is so quick as well!! If you are expecting a baby/babies in the near future and were thinking about booking with Chaney, here's your sign to do so. She will not disappoint!!

Will forever be my go-to photographer!
Chaney did my little boy’s newborn photos, and man did she exceed my expectations by FAR! As a first time mother, I had all these ideas for what I wanted to be captured, she made sure each prop and pose were obtained exactly how I envisioned. She was so gentle with my little one, and her passion just poured out as we had conversations during the shoot. I cannot express my gratitude enough for the photos I received! I will be a returning customer for all my special occasions!

Do you want a photographer that cares about her work, cares about you, your family and your kids? Then Chaney is for you! Not only is she caring and patient, but her work is amazing and her prices are affordable! Chaney is a wonderful person and truly a professional in her field. She was instantly able to put my family at ease, and capture some captivating photographs. I will treasure them forever. I simply cannot recommend her enough! Even when my newborn was fussy, and needed to take breaks to eat, or change, or just be calmed, she didn't mind. The session took longer than expected, but she never rushed us or made us feel as if we were a nuisance.

You can tell she truly loves what she does. This is a NOT just a job for her!
10/10 I will forever recommend Chaney!! Not only is she amazing with children in general, she’s so loving, patient, and kind. Always made sure that my son was comfortable, and paid attention to his cues closely to decide whether or not he was ready to be in the wrap for the photos. The quality of her photography is just through the roof amazing, and she puts so much love in what she does. The way she works, and the way she speaks just gives away how much she loves what she does! If you’re on the fence about choosing her, don’t be! She’s amazing in every way!
