As a Los Angeles newborn photographer, my job is to make sure you have photographs of these special, milestone moments in your baby’s and family’s life. And while every newborn and family photography session includes a gallery of high-resolution digital images, I believe the real magic happens when your photos become tangible fine art prices in your home.
Why?
For starters, I’m guessing you haven’t invested in a Los Angeles newborn photography session with the intention of letting your photos live permanently on your laptop. And yet, in the sweet chaos of life with a newborn and everything else you’re juggling, that’s exactly what can – and does – happen. There are so many reasons to ensure you print your photos, but the biggest reason of all: you and your children deserve to live and grow in a home that’s filled with meaningful memories. And I’m here to help you with that.
My Fine Art Print Process: Time Tested Quality You Can Trust
Step 1: I’ve spent years behind the scenes testing professional labs to find the best quality prints, so you don’t have to. All the products I offer are produced with archival papers and inks which means your photos will look just as good a generation from now as they do when you receive them.
Step 2: Once you book your Los Angeles family photography session, I will send you my product Print Guide which showcases all of the fine art products to choose from.
Step 3: Schedule your design appointment, which takes place at your convenience over Zoom. During this meeting, I will help you select images, recommend products that will work best in your home, and can even show you how different sized prints will look on your walls.
Step 4: Order your prints! All sessions come with a print credit, to further encourage you to invest in fine art products from your session. Once you receive your final, retouched gallery and print credit, you can order prints through your Pic-Time gallery store.
The Products from Your Newborn & Family Photography Session
Framed Fine Art Prints
Your framed artwork starts with the best-quality print available. That means archival inks on 100% cotton paper that is acid and lignin-free. In other words? No fading or yellowing.
Next, your print is matted with 100% cotton 8-ply museum-grade matting.
Finally, your masterpiece is framed with 99% UV-blocking acrylic and framed with solid hardwood moulding that is sustainably produced in the U.S.
- Traditional Framed Print: This classic framed print is available in sizes from 11×14 to 20×24. I’ll help you choose the right size to suit your space, along with the moulding and matting options that best showcase your image.
- Modern Matting: This is a modern take on the traditional framed print, with extra negative space that both draws attention to your image and adds a clean, gallery-style look. This style is ideal for modern and contemporary homes, and is available in print sizes from 11×14 to 30×45.
- Deckled 4-Square: The 4-Square is a client favorite—offering a way to display four images in one frame. Deckled-edge prints appear to float within a multi-opening mat, creating a modern, gallery-style presentation. Prefer clean edges? The hand-torn deckling can be omitted upon request. This piece includes four 8×8” prints set within a 22″ mat, making it a beautiful and space-efficient way to display your memories.
- Deckled Circles: This single image, presented in a circular layout, offers a modern twist on a timeless classic. Displayed in a round-cut mat, each print is made on fine art paper with optional deckled edges for a soft, handcrafted feel—or choose clean edges for a more minimalist look. Available in sizes ranging from 12×12 to 24×24.
Heirloom Albums
I don’t use the term “heirloom” lightly: these albums are designed to stand the test of time. Handmade in the U.S. by a small company that hasbeen crafting top-tier albums for more than 20 years, each features archival photographic prints; thick, lay-flat pages and a debossed linen cover.
Your heirloom albumis a custom product. Once you’ve selected your images, I’ll design an album layout for you to review. You’ll have the opportunity to request any changes before it goes to print.
Then, choose your cover fabric and, if you’d like to add text, select your preferred font and debossing style to complete the look.
Albums are the opposite of digital storage—your memories aren’t buried in the cloud, they’re right at your fingertips. Your kids will love curling up beside you, flipping through pages, and hearing stories about their younger selves. As they grow, these albums become a lasting reminder of where they came from—and one day, they’ll share them with their own children.
Albums come in sizes 10×10 or 9×12.
Your personalized print store will include all of these products, as well as simple, unframed prints up to 8×10 in size, and canvases for hanging. Have questions about the fine art products you can get from your sessions? I can be reached here. I’d love to help get your memories out of the cloud and into your home.
