As a baby photographer in Charlotte, one of my favorite ways to preserve your family memories is through the First Year Collective membership. With the First Year Collective, we will document your baby’s first year in a way that feels cohesive, full of joy, and helps you remember all of those milestones you want to remember forever. It also comes with a handful of perks that might make it just the right fit for your family!

Priority Booking

For starters, being part of the First Year Collective means priority booking for your sessions. As a member, you never have to worry about space on my calendar. This is especially wonderful during the busy seasons and for special events we do throughout the year. Rest assured, booking each of your milestone sessions during your baby’s first year will feel effortless and enjoyable.

Cohesiveness

Having multiple sessions throughout the year with the same photographer also means a cohesive look throughout your sessions. This means even with more than one session, each will have the same look and feel, and the gallery wall with look beautiful no matter which session you decide to pull from during the design process. Your album pages will flow as if they belong together – because they do. We will also make sure your wardrobe is fresh for each session and that each look flows throughout the year.

Don’t Miss a Milestone

Being in the First Year Collective also means never missing a milestone. Mama, you don’t have to worry about when to book your next session. We know life gets busy and scheduling can be easily forgotten when you’re left to do it all. That’s precisely why we reach out when it’s time to book your next session!

Savings!

Booking this way may initially feel like a bigger investment, but it’s actually easier on your budget. Booking three or four sessions at once saves you money (and time) on session fees over the year and complimentary birth announcements are included with your newborn session through the membership!

First Year Album

This may be my favorite part of the First Year Collective. As a member, you will have the opportunity to build an album with images from each session, creating a one of a kind book with your favorite images. You’ll be able to look through your album as often as you want with your little one, reflect on their first year, and then one day pass it on to them. These albums, they’re more than pretty books to put on your coffee table. They truly are a beautiful way to preserve your family’s legacy and be something you can pass down and share stories from for generations to come.

When Should I Get Started?

If you’re already sure the First Year Collective is right for you, your next question may be, “okay, but when should I get started?”

The best time to get started is early in your second trimester. You’ve likely started sharing your news with family and friends and it’s also the perfect time to continue the celebrating with session planning. I only take a limited number of members each year to ensure you have the best experience possible.

Your little ones grow exponentially fast the first year and as a Charlotte baby photographer, I love walking with you through every milestone to make sure those sweet memories are yours to cherish forever!
