Congratulations on your upcoming addition! Newborn portraits are a beautiful way to preserve the fleeting first days of your baby’s life—those tiny details, sweet expressions, and quiet moments you’ll want to remember forever.
I offer two types of newborn portrait sessions: styled and lifestyle. Styled sessions focus on softly posed images with curated wraps, textures, and props for a timeless, studio-inspired look in your home. Lifestyle sessions are more relaxed and organic, capturing natural moments and connections in the comfort of your home. Please see the images below to help determine which session best fits your style and needs.
As early as your second trimester, reach out to me to schedule your newborn portrait session via ashley@ashleywalkerphotography.com
Interested in Booking
Congratulations—what an exciting time for your family! I’m a mom of two (ages twelve and eight) and specialize in working with families and children, especially newborns. This experience brings a level of familiarity and comfort, making your newborn session a safe and relaxed experience. Your safety is my top priority—I am fully vaccinated.
I offer two types of in-home newborn sessions: Styled Sessions and Lifestyle Sessions. Both take place in the comfort of your home and include your immediate family.
Lifestyle Session: A relaxed, natural session that focuses on your baby in their environment, without multiple styled setups. Timing is flexible and can be scheduled at your convenience. This session last 1 hour and include 5 fully edited images for $475.
Styled Session: A longer, more curated experience that includes several styled setups, posed newborn shots, and family portraits. These sessions are best scheduled between days 10–21 to capture your baby at their sleepiest and most flexible. This session last 3 hours and include 8 fully edited images for $725.
Booking & Safety
To devote proper time and attention to each family, I limit the number of newborn session I take on each month, making early booking essential. For the safety of your family and mine, I follow strict health protocols, with enhanced measures for the safety of your new addition. To reserve your session, a non-refundable retainer is required:
Styled Newborn Session: $100
Lifestyle Newborn Session: $60
This retainer is applied toward your session fee, unless there is a late cancellation. At the time of the retainer request, I will send you my contract along with a newborn questionnaire. This helps me gather your preferences and prepare your customized sets.
If you do like more than the images included, there is an option to purchase more at a discounted rate. I do not require you to purchase prints through me and I am not affiliated with a printing store, if you would like recommendations it would be based on my personal experience.
Lifestyle Newborn Sessions
Lifestyle sessions take place in your home and capture your new addition in a relaxed, natural way. Baby is mostly held in mom or dad’s arms, creating intimate, heartfelt moments. You’re welcome to include your baby’s nursery, crib, bassinet, or special mementos. I provide a wrap and outfit for your little one.

Styled Newborn Sessions
My most popular newborn session is the styled newborn portrait session. I bring a traveling studio to your home and provide an all-inclusive experience, curating props, outfits, and decor for each setup based on your color palette and style preferences. While I work with your baby, I encourage you to take a moment to relax—enjoy a warm meal or a shower. During the session, I photograph baby posed individually, as well as with mom, dad, and siblings (if applicable).
