Welcoming baby Andi

Andi was absolutely perfect at her lifestyle newborn photoshoot! After capturing mom's studio maternity pictures, I had the special privilege of capturing the newly family of 4. Big sister was over the moon about having a baby sister to play with! Big sister borrowed from my studio closet for her pretty blue dress.

The Newborn Experience
Welcoming a brand new baby into your family is an exciting time! You will want to document your babies tiny little face, toes, and little expressions. These are the moments you will want to remember forever and I would be honored to capture them for you in my studio or in your home for a more lifestyle session!
Best time to book your newborn session is a couple months in advance to make sure there is availability. Once baby is born we will finalize the actual session date. Photos are best when infants are between 5 to 14 days old, but I photograph babies of all stages and ages!
Client closet, props, clothing, wraps, bonnets, headbands, and more are available for your customized session with me!
You've had a chance to explore my work and are interested in discussing a newborn session for your little one in the Savannah/Effingham, Ga area. How exciting! Head over to the contact page to get more details on booking a session with me. I'll be in touch within 24-48 hours via email (if it's over the weekend, you'll hear from me on Monday)! Make sure to check your spam folder :)
I'll take the time to understand your family's unique needs and ensure we're the right match. It's best to reserve your session during pregnancy (around 20 weeks), as I only accept a limited number of newborns each month. We will chat via email or a phone call to answer all of your questions. Sessions are either in my studio located in Guyton or your home for a lifestyle session in the comfort of your home!
1. Say Hello
2. Let's make it offical
We're a great match, we nailed down the location, date, and time and you're ready to secure your spot on my calendar—let's make it official! I'll send over a questionnaire, photography agreement and the invoice for your $250 session retainer.
Once this is all squared away, you will be OFFICALLY BOOKED and on the calendar!!
3. planning
And now the fun begins—let's start planning! We'll collaborate to bring your vision for your newborn session to life. We'll discuss your ideas and how you envision enjoying your photos, whether digitally, in an album, or beautifully framed on your walls. We'll pick outfits from my client closet for mom. I will provide everything for the session-hats/headbands, wraps, outfits, and props.
Now, we eagerly await the arrival of your little one. Once your baby is born, please inform me, and we'll schedule the session for when they are between 7 and 14 days old. This timing allows you to establish feeding routines while ensuring your baby is still in that wonderfully new, sleepy phase. BUT don't worry if we are outside of the 14 days! I know how things don't go as planned.
4. The big day
The day is finally here! On the morning of your session, you'll prepare your baby and head over to the studio I'll gently and safely pose your newborn and direct your family to ensure everyone is feeling comfortable and relaxed, all while showcasing your precious baby. Your newborn sets the pace, so we'll take breaks whenever needed for feeding, changing, or comforting—everything will run on baby time. Sessions typically last 2-3 hours, this gives us plenty of time for the needed baby breaks.
During the session, I'll capture your baby in various natural or posed positions, a few props, sibling, parents, and whole family.
5. your photographs
I know you are so excited to see your images!! Within a week after your session, I'll send a proofing gallery with soft edited images for you to choose from. After wiping the tears away from looking at your beautiful family, you will then select the collection that suits your family.
Your final images will be ready within 3-4 weeks after choosing a collection! You'll receive an email will access to your GORGOUS gallery! Images wanted for the archival prints, frames and artwork will be selected at this stage. Let's get those beautiful pictures into your hands and not jus on your hard drive! The last step is to enjoy your photos for generations!
Pricing is easy! It's a $250 nonrefundable retainer due at the time of booking to cover my time, talent, all pre planning, client closet, and session prep guide, etc.
After your session, you will receive an online proofing gallery. This is where you will choose which images you love!
Digital collections start at $350

We are so happy we found Constance and are looking forward to many years to come of her capturing beautiful memories for our family. She took newborn photos for us in July 2024 that we will cherish forever - they are stunning! Light and airy, crisp and clear - timeless. First, her communication is top notch. She contacted me quickly after inquiring on her website with a professional email and all questions immediately answered without prompting that I had in my mind - how it all works, timeline, difference in types of photos she provides, pricing - all of it. She also wants to genuinely get to know your family and goals for the photos to provide the best experience possible and meet all expectations. We had a complicated hospital stay and postpartum course and she was so flexible, caring, and checked in frequently and was able to adjust our photo session timeline to be the best to work for us. As a testament to her high skill level, she was able to capture gorgeous photos of a nearly one month old who also had colic at the time! Phew! At the photo shoot, we went to her studio. She had so many props, outfits, headbands, soothing tools and techniques for baby - everything set up. There is furniture to sit so we were able to feed and rock the baby which was so helpful. There was a changing station for her as well set up and a diaper pail. She had very soothing music on. It was a great environment! Constance had incredible patience. We never felt pressured or uncomfortable with our fussy baby and she even helped soothe multiple times which was so relieving. After, Constance kept in close contact and had an impressive turnaround time on getting the proof gallery and then the final gallery back to us. The gallery delivery is also on a very professional, beautiful, and easy to use platform. I can't say enough good things! I feel so incredibly lucky we found her. We already booked her Christmas minis as well! Look no further - you've found the perfect photographer!
Constance has been taking photos for our family for the past 2 years and we are left speechless every time! If you are looking for someone to capture timeless memories for your family, look no further.
Constance is incredible! Her work is just beautiful but not only that, she made us feel comfortable from the very first moment. Our big girlies had the best time getting their pictures done while our little one was taken care of with the utmost care & love. We will be long time clients & cannot wait to come back for more!
Constance Calton Photography is amazing! With a busy 1 year old, you feel pressured to go, go, go at a photoshoot but, Constance went slow and took her time to get just the right shot. Her pricing is reasonable and she very responsive to questions. I highly recommend!
Highly recommend Constance Calton Photography for your newborn and family photos! Constance was so good with our baby girl, working through her newborn fussiness with such patience. Our session was so fun and relaxed. We absolutely love how her newborn pictures turned out!
Constance has helped us capture so many moments for our family including our daughters first year photos, family photos, maternity/mommy and me, and newborn photos. Constance is always patient and takes the time to understand exactly what we’re looking for in our photos. We will continue to work with Constance Calton Photography for our future photography needs and would recommend her to others to do the same!
Constance took my maternity and newborn photos! She is excellent at her job and is very talented. She takes time to make sure everything is perfect! Her communication prior to the shoot made me feel at ease about the process with a newborn and toddler.
Constance is amazing! I purchased two family sessions for my mom and mother in law and she made everything so easy. During the session she made us feel so comfortable (not to mention how good we look in the photos). The patience she had with our 2 little babies and the time she spent making sure she got the best photos of them was seriously the best. She now has forever customers and I’ll make sure to recommend her to any other friends or family. Definitely book. You will NOT be disappointed!
Constance is simply the best! She did our son’s 1 year smash cake session and family photos. Despite the 90 degree weather and a cranky baby, Constance worked her magic and was so patient with us. We will definitely use her in the future!
I contacted Constance last minute for newborn photos. (First time mom here!) she was so accommodating! She offered me suggestions on outfits, colors and recreated a few poses I had in mind.
Our newborn decided she wanted to run the show and throw a few curve balls in there. Constance was outstanding with her and captured her personality beautifully. THAT is something you don’t normally get to see in newborn photos. I am completely in love with the photos and will cherish them for years and years to come! Thank you, Constance! 💗
I’ve personally never had the chance to get professional photos done until I got the chance with Constance. She worked so well with my kids, so patient while they got all excited. The session was so easy and laid back. The photos were better then I could have ever expected. I absolutely loved every photo she captured. 12/10 will definitely be back! She’s a wonderful person and I can’t wait to do business with her again!
We had Christmas Tree farm photos with Constance Carlton photography December 5th. The session was set up well and ran smoothly! Even with a hard headed toddler Constance kept rolling and thought outside of the box to get some wonderful photos for our family to enjoy!
Constance was thorough and patient with my newborn and two daughters. I really like how professional her communication was before, during, and after our session. She made sure there was total understanding about instructions, expectations, and payment. My 3 year old was particularly difficult on picture day, but that didn’t slow Constance down. She was also accommodating of my daughter with special needs to make sure she was comfortable and included. The final product was to die for. I will treasure these pictures forever.
Constance not only fit us in at the last minute for newborn pictures, but we’ve had our 3 and 6 month sessions with her! We plan to keep her as our family photographer! She always catches the sweetest and most perfect shots of our little love, and we love her for that! She is truly the best!!!!
Constance is great! She has taken our Easter photos for 2 years and also my newborns photos! She is very professional and does an awesome job! I loved then all!
Constance was great! She got some great first birthday photos and executed our vision perfectly. She finally got some smiles out of our daughter who wasn’t so sure about having photos taken!
