"Best photo session we have ever experienced. Flawless images that family and friends mentioned how much they admired and beautifully they turned out. Super simple booking process and great turnaround time."
"We had such a wonderful experience with our maternity shoot that we had to schedule a newborn shoot which was just equally amazing! Everything was easy from start to finish—the studio was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Brenaya made us feel so at ease and was amazing to work with. She captured such special moments beautifully, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Highly recommend!"
I cannot give enough stars!! Brenaya was so welcoming and professional and made me feel so good during our maternity shoot! The experience was so great - from the professional makeup to the dresses. Her photos are ✨top tier ✨ and she was a pleasure to work with! Would recommend to anyone! Will be returning to her in the future for more memories to be captured! Thank you again, girl!
FAQ- Newborn Photography Session
Can siblings join in on the session?
They absolutely can! I do these photos towards the end of the session. So I ask if there are siblings that it is best if another parent is around to hang out with them while we are shooting baby by themselves or another parent/relative/friend bring them towards the end of the session when it is time for parent poses.
Newborn sessions take anywhere from 2.5-3 hours in length and little ones do not like to sit still for very long waiting for their turn to be photographed.
How old should my newborn be for photos?
Newborn portraits are best done within the first 3 weeks of your baby being born with the sweet spot being within the first 11-18 days following delivery. Your baby will be very sleepy still at this age and won't mind being posed in squishy newborn positions. After this age range babies tend to not be as sleepy and are more alert during their session; which can mean your newborn session could take a little longer.
When should you schedule your Newborn Session in Lincoln with Brenaya Faye Photography?
It's highly recommended to schedule your newborn photography session before your baby arrives.
If you want a guaranteed spot it's best to book at least 4 weeks to 3 months prior to your due date.
When booking your newborn photoshoot with me I will tentatively put your due date on my calendar and once you deliver we will schedule a firm date for the session within those first Three weeks of baby being born.
I only schedule a certain number of clients a month so be sure to secure early.
Do you provide digital images?
Yes, all packages include digital files. Although I do believe that your portraits do deserve to be displayed beyond digitally! The Raw/Un-edited images are not provided to client.
What should I wear for the family portion of the newborn session?
It's best to avoid bright colors and clothing with logos. Creams, neutrals, blacks and grays photograph beautifully and are very classic and timeless. I also love the look of textures/ simple patterns.
The shooting space will be kept nice and warm during the session (by a portable heater) to keep baby comfortable and cozy. So you will want to wear something light and then change into your clothes for the family portion when it is time.
I do have a client closet with dresses/gowns/ tops for mama and siblings if you wanted to wear something in the client closet.
Where do newborn sessions take place?
Specializing in Newborn Photography in Lincoln Nebraska, I aim to serve all clients in and around Lincoln and Omaha Nebraska areas. Your newborn photoshoot will take place in the comfort of your own home or at my private studio located at 4203 S 48th St. in Lincoln.
Newborn sessions are done on weekday mornings starting at 9-10am. Weekend availability is available for an additional fee.

Motherhood is a beautiful yet sometimes tough journey and for that it deserves to be documented and remembered.

I will capture beautiful, timeless, and classic photographs for you to treasure just how precious life’s moments are.
Your images deserve to be printed and cherished forever.
