Number 2: The Studio is Fully Vaccinated

As adults who come into daily contact with newborns, the studio takes newborn safety seriously. The three primary vaccines a newborn studio should maintain are (1) Tdap, (2) MMR, and (3) flu vaccine. Staying up to date on these crucial vaccinations protects little ones, such as new babies, as this helps not pass dangerous diseases to vulnerable immune systems.

Number 3: Experienced Parents | Familial Dynamics

Sarah and Kevin Borchgrevink | Houston Photographers

As parents to four young children named Lucy, Emma, Amelia, and Jack, we're well-versed in patience and moving with the flow. All children have their personalities and dynamics. Parenting four children has taught us patience, compassion, kindness, and also how to be flexible. We know those sibling photos are of the utmost importance to you and work our absolute best to achieve the top results. Whether your family is serious or shy, animated or reserved, bashful, or spirited, we are ready for a photo adventure and excited to serve you!

Number Four: Fully Transparent Pricing Guide

The studio joyfully showcases fully transparent pricing and package guide, so there are no hidden fees or surprises. The studio offers fully inclusive pricing, which means there are no separate sitting or session fees for obtaining your final product. Our office also does all the proofing online. There is not a single in-person sales appointment, minimum print order, or stipulations in obtaining your full-resolution, retouched digital files of completed images, along with a print release, you may enjoy infinitely. Parents select the package with the number of digital files they would like to receive. All props and styling are provided from start to finish.

Number 5: Online Booking and Scheduling

To provide a modern and convenient booking process for parents, all bookings and schedules are made online through our booking page. The booking page showcases every session type we offer, such as studio maternity, posed newborn, studio family, and even baby milestone sessions for infants. Parents select their package, date, and time from an easy-to-use online calendar. Your deposit of $100 and a portraiture agreement are given through the online booking page. This commissions us as your photographer and secures your appointment. The online booking page also has nifty styling questionnaires, too, and sends text message reminders as well as e-mail reminders, so you're always up to date on your session time. You may expect to follow up e-mails, too, so you're sure of each step in our portraiture process together.

Our due date placeholder page is trendy!

Number 6: Complimentary Studio Tours and Consultations

We also set our business apart through complimentary, easy to schedule studio tours and consultations. Many parents like to tour our office in advance. Moreover, commissioning a photographer is a big decision! We are excited to meet with you and chat further about anything questions you may have. Customer service is of the utmost importance.

Ample sister wardrobe is a new addition, too! Available in sizes three months - 8t.

Number 9: Hair and Makeup Airbrush Artistry and Styling

The booking software will have you check ‘yes’ or ‘no’ for hair and makeup styling. If you choose yes, an on-location team of highly qualified and expertly trained artists will visit you, on location, at your home or the studio, if you’re more comfortable. However, the studio recommends home hair and makeup to make things easier for parents of young toddlers and newborn sessions. Annie Williams is our preferred vendor, and the software tells you how to contact her for your glamorous experience.

Number 10: Newborn Safety Workshops & Mentoring

Houston Newborn Photography Workshop

Aside from being the mommy to four young children, I have taken multiple newborn safety workshops in addition to professional mentoring. These courses train photographers on how to safely and beautifully pose precious babies. Workshop topics also cover editing, lighting, soothing, flow, and strategies and creative methods to provide breathtaking setups and styling.

Rainbow Newborn Session in Houston TX | Emily

Here's What Emily's Sweet Parents had to say about their portraiture experience at Sarah's studio:

My family and I just got our newborn & family pictures done with Sarah and we were VERY impressed. She was so professional and gentle with our newborn and took beautiful shots of all of us. She was very friendly and made us feel very comfortable. I recommend her to anyone looking to get family or newborn pictures done!
Newborn Rainbow Photos Houston

What is a rainbow baby?

A “rainbow baby” is a baby that is born following a miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal death or infant loss.In the real world, a beautiful and bright rainbow follows a storm and gives hope of things getting better. ... A rainbow baby brings light but by no means replaces the angel baby.

Greetings, friends! Howdy to you! Thanks for stopping by to see this super sweet baby session featuring an adorable family. They came to my studio when baby girl, named Emily, was 9 days old.

For my time with this family, we focused on all things sweet and simple; as always, I use a plethora of gorgeous wrapping to reflect the womblike posing I adore. I also pulled many vintage props because they create a classic tone. I'm inspired by textiles, texture, and creating stunning art pieces of your most precious love: your brand new baby.

Tomball Newborn Photographer: Sarah Borchgrevink

Here are my favorite images of my time with Emily! She slept like a champ - this is a dream for a newborn photographer! All babies are different and some like to sleep more than others; however, I do provide you with a detailed prep guide so you're told how to ensure baby has a great session. The prep guide also tells you what will happen so you're never in the dark during your session. It's a privilege to document your baby so I want you to have a fun time.

Vibrant Baby Photography in Houston

Timeless, classic and unique custom newborn portraits by Houston Baby Photographer Sarah Borchgrevink. 

Best Houston Newborn Photographer | Sarah Borchgrevink Photography

Howdy, friends! I'm super excited you're here on the blog today! This is where I share the top images from the newborn, maternity and family sessions I have the honor of documenting! Today's posed newborn session features a darling baby girl. She came to my studio, located in Houston, when she was 7 days fresh and new. 

Her session features some of my favorite colors for little girls such as a vibrant teal, turquoise, maroon, and even a daring mustard! One of my favorite aspects of all your sessions is that everything is provided by me so you simply show up.

Before booking, her sweet parents came to my office to chat in person. We talked about colors, props and ideas for their session. They were the perfect fit so I truly looked forward to seeing them again. Newborn sessions do take place in the first 14 days of life, so I recommend coming in while you're still pregnant to ensure availability. The following are my favorite images from my time with them. They did see 44, so it was a great gallery, but I am just going to show you a handful today. :-) 

Sweet baby girl loved to be wrapped! During my time with her, she even snored a little bit since she was so cozy! These colors look amazing on her! Color is vibrant and soulful; my vintage inspired newborn sessions use classic pieces such as antique props in order to preserve a timeless collection for you. I like green and blue because they're different: unique color schemes set your images apart. And while each newborn photographer has their own point of view on styling, I proudly offer a huge array of colors, bonnets, hats, and more just for you.

For their floor props, mom requested the vintage cradle and antique wooden bucket for her session. These are popular and some of my favorites to use! They typically fit every baby who is anywhere from 5 to 10 pounds!
