Sitter / Toddler Photography FAQs

Appointments & Booking

Our studio is open from Monday to Saturday. We are closed on Sundays and public holidays.

We offer in-studio sitter or toddler photoshoots only.

Please note that we cannot confirm your photography session date until a non-refundable deposit of Rs. 10000+GST (Rs. 11800) is received. The remaining amount must be paid on or before the day of the photoshoot.

When is the best time to get a sitter or photo session done?

We recommend that the best time to get a sitter session done is at about 7-8 months. Once the baby is able to sit independently without support, they are ready for a sitter shoot.

After this, babies change their look every few months and should be photographed at least once or twice in a year for a toddler shoot.

How early should I reach out to book my sitter or toddler shoot?

We recommend that you book you session at least a month in advance to find a desirable date.

Can I include an older sibling in a sitter or toddler shoot?

Of course! We are more than happy to have your older child or children join the session.

Please note that there is an additional charge of ₹7995+GST per child per setup. This fee also includes one extra edited photo in your final deliverables.

Can we get a parent or a family shoot done along with our sitter or toddler shoot?

Yes, we highly recommend adding our Vogue style family session to your shoot. Family photos will become the most memorable part of your life and you will enjoy them for a lifetime.

We believe that sitter or toddler photography is for you but family photography is your gift to your child. Please note that family setups are photographed in different setups from sitter or toddler shoots.

Is it possible to reschedule my photoshoot, either earlier or later than the original date?

Yes, we do permit rescheduling your session once, 7 days before your scheduled appointment. Last minute rescheduling is not allowed.

What is the procedure for cancelling my scheduled photoshoot?

If you need to cancel your session, please provide at least 7 days notice, or 14 days notice if your booking falls on a Saturday. Upon cancellation, your deposit will be retained as a credit, which you can use within the next 6 months.

Kindly note that deposits are non-refundable.

What happens if I arrive late for my scheduled photoshoot?

We kindly ask that you be punctual for your appointment, as our studio operates on a tight schedule and our photographer has other commitments.

If you anticipate a delay of 10-15 minutes, please contact us to check our availability. Delays of more than 30 minutes without prior notice may result in the cancellation of your session and forfeiture of your deposit.

To ensure a smooth experience, we recommend planning your day in advance:

Prepare your baby’s bag & parents outfits in advance (in case of a parents shoot)
Travel time to the studio, including potential traffic and delays.

Aiming to arrive 20 minutes prior to your session time can help accommodate any unforeseen delays.

What payment methods do you accept, such as bank transfers, UPI, cards, or cash?

We offer a variety of payment options to suit your needs.

For online transactions, we accept UPI and bank transfers, as well as Google Pay and Paytm. We can also send a payment link on request.

For in-studio payments, we welcome domestic debit/credit cards and cash.

Please note that we are unable to process international credit or debit cards at this time.

Will I receive a GST invoice for my photoshoot? Can I receive a GST Invoice in the name of my business for this photoshoot?

We will provide you with a GST invoice for the services you’ve utilised. Our services typically include an 18% GST, unless otherwise specified.

However, please be aware that we only issue invoices in the name of an individual for personal shoots like sitter or toddler sessions, as they are considered personal services rather than commercial ones.

Business GST invoices are reserved for commercial shoots. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Are you available for outdoor, at-home, or out-of-town photoshoots?

Certainly! We can provide custom packages for out-of-studio shoots starting at Rs. 2 Lac + GST. Please don’t hesitate to call or WhatsApp us for further information or to discuss your specific needs.

Set-ups/Themes for Sitter or Toddler Session

We provide a variety of different backdrops for your sitter or toddler photoshoot. We prefer to use neutral, white and pastel tones to create a soft aesthetic that complements the delicate and tender nature of such shoots. Though we are open to preferences and any personalisation from your end. It all depends on what kind of backdrops and elements we have in our stock.

What type of backdrops are available for the baby photoshoot and how do I pick a backdrop?

We provide a variety of backdrops, focusing on neutrals, dark, white, and pastel tones. These colours create a soft, delicate aesthetic perfect for baby portraits. We will share our baby portfolio with you to help you select your backdrop.

We’ll guide you through the available options during the pre-session consultation, considering your style and vision. Based on your preferences, we’ll help you finalise the backdrops.

Can you do the same thing for me if I like something on Pinterest or Instagram?

Yes, feel free to share any inspirations from Pinterest or Instagram. This helps us understand the context of your visual requirements. If we have something similar available, we would love to offer it to you.

Can I bring my own props for the baby session?

Absolutely! You’re welcome to bring personal props. We’ll integrate them into the session if they match the setup and ensure they are safe for the baby.

How long does it take to do 1, 2, 3 or 4 baby setups?

Each setup generally takes 20-30 minutes, including positioning and adjustments. A single setup might take around 1 hour, while 4 setups could take up to 3 hours, allowing for feeding and calming breaks to ensure the baby’s comfort.

Do you sanitise the backdrops and props between sessions?

Yes, hygiene and safety are our top priorities. All props and backdrops are thoroughly sanitised after each session to ensure a clean and safe environment for your baby.

Wardrobe – for the sitter or toddler

We are able to provide outfits for babies up to one year old. You can also bring an outfit for your sitter or toddler but please make sure that it’s not too loose or the baby may be lost in it.

Are the outfits used for my sitter clean?

Yes, all outfits are thoroughly washed or dry cleaned and sanitised before each session. We prioritise hygiene to ensure a safe and comfortable experience for your baby.

Please note that we only provide outfits for kids up to one year of age.

How do I pick a outfit for my sitter or toddler?

Based on the backdrop and theme you select, we can help you decide on the outfit to bring for your sitter or toddler.

For sitters up to one year old, you can explore our collection.

Can I bring my own outfits or accessories for the baby?

Yes, you can bring your own outfits or accessories. We recommend outfits that are a snug or a perfect fit for the child, ensuring they enhance your sitter or toddler’s features and look great in the photos.

Can I choose multiple outfits for each setup?

For each setup or theme, we allow the use of one outfit for a child.

Wardrobe – for family & siblings

(optional)

The wardrobe for your family shoot is probably one of the most important aspects of your family look. You are welcome to choose outfits for the mom, from our wardrobe selection for Rs. 3000+GST per outfit. We have many outfits that you can choose from.

Please note that ur family setups are shot separately from sitter or toddler setups.

What should my husband and I wear for the family session with our baby?

Your wardrobe choices depend on the backdrop. For darker backdrops, we suggest deep, rich tones like navy or charcoal. For lighter backdrops, soft, neutral shades such as beige, ivory, or light pastels work beautifully. It’s important to keep the colour palette cohesive to ensure the focus remains on the family’s connection rather than on bold contrasts.

Are family outfits available at your studio for baby photoshoots, and can I preview them?

We offer a curated wardrobe selection for moms, which you are welcome to explore during the consultation. However, we ask that dads and siblings bring their own outfits to complement the overall look. Our wardrobe options are chosen with care to ensure they photograph beautifully alongside the baby.

What kind of footwear, jewellery, or accessories should we bring for the family photoshoot?

Simple and elegant accessories are ideal for family photoshoots. When it comes to footwear, neutral-toned shoes or opting to go barefoot can help maintain a natural look. For jewellery, we recommend subtle pieces that won’t draw too much attention away from the family, allowing the overall theme to remain timeless and harmonious.

What should my older child wear for the family photoshoot?

We suggest comfortable clothing in neutral or pastel tones that match the baby’s outfit. It’s best to avoid bright colours or busy patterns that might overshadow the natural beauty of your family’s interaction. Simple, classic outfits help keep the focus on your family’s connection.

Can we coordinate outfits as a family for a cohesive look, and do you provide styling advice?

Yes, we encourage coordinating your outfits for a cohesive family look. Our team will offer styling advice during your consultation to ensure everyone’s outfits complement each other, resulting in beautifully balanced and harmonious photographs. A well-coordinated wardrobe will enhance the overall aesthetic and mood of your photos.

What backdrops do you use for family photoshoots with the baby?

We offer a selection of both light and dark backdrops to suit the style and mood you’re looking to create. Whether you prefer soft, neutral tones or a richer, more dramatic backdrop, we’ll help you select the best option to highlight the love and bond of your family.

What colours, patterns, or outfits should we avoid?

It’s best to steer clear of bright colours, busy patterns, or large logos, as they can distract from the focus of the photos. Opting for soft, neutral tones and classic styles helps create timeless images that highlight your family’s natural connection and beauty.

Hair and Makeup information – for the mother

(optional)

If you are adding a family shoot along with your baby session, the mom is expected to come ready to the studio with hair and makeup. We always recommend that you work with your existing Makeup & Hair Artists to get the expected results for the shoot day.

Hair & Makeup is NOT INCLUDED in our packages and is not offered as a service. We DO NOT ALLOW Hair & Makeup to be done at our studio as per our business & insurance policy.

Are hair & makeup services available at your studio?

Unfortunately, we do not provide hair and makeup services at the studio. We understand that as a new mom, time can be limited, so we recommend arriving ready for your session. If you prefer a more natural look, that works beautifully for baby photography. You don’t need to overdo it—just come as comfortable as you feel.

Can my hair and makeup artist come to the studio for preparations?

We do not allow hair and makeup artists to come to the studio for preparations. This is due to our business policies and insurance requirements. We recommend arriving with your hair and makeup done to ensure the session runs smoothly and remains focused on capturing beautiful moments with your baby.

Can you suggest specific hair and makeup artists for the shoot?

We don’t provide specific recommendations for hair and makeup artists. However, we suggest working with someone you’ve used before and are comfortable with, as this helps ensure you’re satisfied with the results. Familiarity is key in these early days, especially when you may not be feeling your best, so trust in your usual artist can help you feel more relaxed.

Is it necessary for me to get my hair and makeup done if I am part of the photoshoot?

It’s not absolutely necessary, and we understand that you may not feel your best after just having a baby. However, we recommend doing whatever helps you feel more comfortable and confident. These images will be cherished for years, so even a light touch of makeup can help you feel more at ease in front of the camera. What matters most is that you feel good about how you look, so choose a level of preparation that works for you.

What type of makeup look do you recommend for a baby family photoshoot?

We recommend a soft, natural look. A simple approach to makeup enhances your features without overshadowing the overall mood of the session. A natural look also ensures that the focus remains on your connection with your baby and family, capturing timeless, beautiful images.

How should I style my hair to complement the overall look of the photoshoot?

Your hairstyle should reflect your personal comfort and style. Whether you prefer your hair down, loosely tied, or gently styled, the key is feeling like yourself. IA simple, low-maintenance style works best, ensuring you feel both confident and relaxed throughout the session. The goal is to keep everything as natural as possible to match the serene, intimate atmosphere of baby photography.

What should I avoid when doing my hair and makeup for the session?

It’s best to avoid overly dramatic makeup or complex hairstyles, as these can distract from the natural, emotional moments we aim to capture. Heavy makeup can sometimes feel uncomfortable and may not reflect how you want to remember these early days. Simplicity is key—by keeping your look natural, we can focus on creating timeless photos that highlight your connection with your baby and family.

Will there be time for touch-ups during the session if needed?

Yes, we understand that new moms may need a few moments for quick touch-ups, and we’re happy to accommodate this. Typically, we start with parents, giving you time for minor adjustments if needed. We aim to make the session as comfortable as possible, so you’ll have the opportunity to refresh your look throughout the shoot as needed.

Photo Copyrights and Sharing

If you do not want your images to be shared, you can opt for the privacy add-on for your shoot for Rs. 19,995 + GST. Please note you have to take prior approval at the time of booking for the privacy add-on. We are unable to offer privacy add-ons for any new wardrobe or any new type of shoot.

Will you use the photos from our session as part of their portfolio?

Yes, we typically showcase photos from sessions in our portfolio because it’s an essential way for us to highlight our work and the memorable moments we capture.

If you’d prefer your photos not be included, we offer a privacy add-on service, allowing you the option to keep your images private.

May I ask for a slight delay in sharing my baby photos until I feel ready?

Indeed, we offer a privacy add-on for an additional fee of Rs. 19,995 per shoot, which allows you to keep your photos private and not shared publicly.

This policy ensures we can meet your privacy needs while maintaining the integrity of our photography services.

Is it possible to request that specific photos not be published or included in the photographer’s portfolio?

May I use the photographs taken by you for commercial purposes, or share them with wardrobe makers, designers, or makeup artists for their portfolios?

Our photography is primarily designed for personal use, and we maintain a policy that restricts the use of these images for commercial purposes. This includes advertising on billboards, business communications, exhibitions, and similar commercial displays

However, we understand the importance of collaboration and recognition in creative industries. If you wish for your makeup artist, wardrobe maker, or designer to feature these photos on their social media, they may do so under specific conditions: they must tag our photography service and provide explicit, proper photo credit linked to our profile

Permission from us is required before they proceed with sharing the images.

Additionally, when these photos are posted, credit to the us (photographer) should be prominently displayed at the beginning of any accompanying text, ensuring it stands out more than credits for other contributions.

This approach allows for a respectful sharing of work while acknowledging the creative contributions of all parties involved.

Who holds the copyright to the photographs? Is it possible for me to acquire full copyright ownership of these photos?

Under Indian copyright law, specifically the Copyright Act of 1957 (as amended), the creator of a photograph, in this case, the photographer, is generally the copyright holder, not the individual who commissioned the photos. Consequently, we retain copyright ownership of the images we capture. We grant our clients the right to use these images for personal, non-commercial purposes.

While we typically do not offer the sale of copyrights for photo shoots, we understand that there may be unique circumstances where full copyright acquisition is desired. If you find yourself in such a situation, we encourage you to reach out to us directly to discuss the possibilities.
