Covid-19 has changed many of the ways we live our life. I'd love to hear from you how it has directly affected your pregnancy. Do you feel like you've missed out on anything during your pregnancy with Noah that you'd hoped for? Do you recall any emotional differences related to the changes you faced towards the end of your pregnancy?
Covid-19 took away so much planned during my pregnancy. With so much changing with the hospital guidelines I was pushed to give in and be induced with my son to not risk having my husband missing out on his birth. I wasn’t allowed to have any family visit me during my stay and my photographer couldn’t be there as well. It was really emotional not having my mother with me as well to meet my son. She honestly didn’t get to meet him until he was 9 weeks old.
How was your hospital stay? Do you recall any differences in processes, how you were treated, etc. compared to your birth plan? How did those differences make you feel?
I honestly loved my hospital stay. I was treated so good by the staff. They helped me understand everything that was going on and I lucked out and got a family friend as my nurse. I couldn’t have done it without Brandi or my husband Michael.
Where was Noah born and at how many weeks gestation? How old was your baby on the date of his session?
Noah was born at Willis Knighton Bossier at 39 weeks. We did his newborns at 6-7 weeks!
What were you nervous about going into your session?
I was nervous about Noah not cooperating and taking him out the house.
What was your favorite part of your session experience?
Being pampered with hair and makeup while Leslie took care of Noah for his session.
How do you feel now that you have completed your session and received your images?
I am so happy! I have been so excited to have these to share with my family 💙
Would you recommend Leslie to other parents looking to document their newborn? Why would you recommend Leslie?
Of course! Leslie is the best. She’s the baby whisper and she knows what she is doing. She is very professional with her work and she is so kind.
There are so many beautiful styles of newborn photos. A simple white background with baby as the focus of the image, that speaks to me. I add color when the parents want me to, but no matter how hard I try.. I always go back to a clean image. Noah, he looks beautiful in a sweet cotton onesie, and all babies do too.
