About Bonnets & Lace

Nora Hernandez is a photographer with her own Photography Studio specializing in Maternity Photography, Newborn and Infant Photography - all Baby Photography, as well as Family Portraits and New Parents with their New Family additions!

Below I have enclosed some information of what to expect, and a model release information form to fill in and get back to me.  The model release is included below and attached as a separate file to this email.

Newborns are best photographed before they are two weeks old, preferably in their first week of life.  This is the best time to capture the curled, sleeping, newborn poses.  After this time babies can develop colic or baby acne, and that can make the session much more difficult.

Newborn sessions are never rushed. Expect your session to last between two to three hours to allow time for diaper changes and feedings. There is no need for clothing (unless you desire it). Newborns are best photographed in bare skin or in a cute hat or simple wrap. I can provide all of these for your session. If you have a special blanket or clothing you would like to use, please bring it along to your session.

Parents are best photographed in plain clothing - no stripes, polka dots, or loud  patterns. Bare skin is an other option.  Other than your clothing I can provide most of the props needed.

If you have any questions please don't  hesitate to call me.

Also, no cameras of any kind including cell phones can be used in the studio.  No exceptions.

However, Nora's portfolio expands beyond the wonderful babies and mom 'n pop pictures! Her unique personal style takes you beyond the usual scope of regular portrait photography. Her interests for the past 20 years with the Central Coast Equine Society has made her privy to some of the best locations for family portraits or even those including horses!
