The Complete Experience

For you

When you book a maternity, newborn, milestone or cake smash with me, I don't just provide the gallery. A session with me comes with a piece of mine when you enter my Rio studio. You will find a warm and comforting space that is equipped with comfortable seating and a genuine smile. 
When you book a session, we discuss wardrobe, the client closet and we work together to ensure that you session is not a stressful thing. 
At Finch & Mae, I believe that communication is key. From the very first email to your gallery being delivered, I hold your hand every step of the way. I have worked to ensure that you maternity, newborn and cake smash guides are filled with useful information and tricks to help your session go smoothly. 
My goal is to ensure that your experience is like no other. You aren't 'just getting a photographer, you are gaining a professional that is truly dedicated to making this as seamless and easy as possible. 

I would love to learn more about your family and help you create memories that will last for generations.

Step 01

Newborn sessions are not scheduled until your baby arrives, however when booking, your due date will go on my calendar. All other sessions are scheduled when booking. 
Newborn and Baby Milestone sessions are held Monday-Friday in my Rio, WI studio. 

Your Date

Step 02

Once your session is scheduled, we will start the planning process. This can include wardrobe, colors for your newborn session and discussing your baby's cake. 

Let's plan

Step 03

Newborn sessions are entirely baby-led. This allows for your baby to eat and snuggle as needed. We do the family portion of your newborn session first to allow big sibling to head out when they are finished. This allows the studio to be peaceful for your newborn. 

Your Newborn Session

Step 04

I love offering beautiful prints, albums and products for families to cherish forever. 

Relive it all

Step 05

how it works

- Cheyenne

Highly recommend. I changed my mind last minute and decided I wanted to have newborn photos done. Becky was quick to respond and was able to accommodate. She answered all of my questions and even incorporated our own props. Quite honestly, I was dreading the shoot- assuming that it would be long and stressful. Becky was comforting and efficient and made it such a positive experience. Sneak photos, proofs and final edits were delivered much quicker than I expected. I am so happy with our experience and photos.

inquire about a session 

Every single one of my sessions is baby led. This allows for feeding, cuddles, changes and more. We don't rush baby or their family. 

Newborn Sessions are at 10am Monday-Friday. 
Milestone and Cake Smash Sessions are between 9 and 3pm, Monday - Friday. 
Maternity Sessions are scheduled together. 
Sessions are held at my Rio, WI Studio | 204 Lincoln Ave. Rio, WI 

What if my baby needs to feed during the session?

When booking your due date will go on my calendar. This essentially gives you a 4 week window for you to have their baby. I totally understand that babies come on their own time, so we adjust accordingly and set the date when baby arrives. 

What happens if my baby arrives earlier/later?

When and where are the sessions held?

I recommend photographing your baby between 5 and 21 days. Many do book their newborn sesssion at the end of their second trimester or early into their third trimester to be sure that they get a spot on my calendar. 

When is the best time to photograph my newborn?
