We had newborn photos with Kate and had the best time! Kate was so patient and you can tell she has a lot of experience working with newborns. We had our baby’s photos done before little girly was even 2 weeks old. Kate has all these fun outfits and props ready to dress the baby in. Would highly recommend if you’re looking to get newborn photos done!
