I am interested in having prenatal pictures as well as new born, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months pictures taken. Any good/bad recs in Dayton/Cincinnati area? Thanks for you help.
I can't even begin to recommend Jen Lake enough. She has a package for everything you want, which is what we are doing for my daughter's first year She is an awesome photographer and so patient with kids!! Photo of my daughter below is by her.
I'll second Jennifer Rose. I use Alison Kamper and love her (here's here Facebook page). I don't know if she does the package deal like Jen does but you can always ask!
My wedding photog is amazing. He does both the Cincinnati and Dayton area. He does maternity and newborn photos. He just added a studio in the Lebanon area. shootingforthesoul[dot]com
I have only had maternity pics done so far but LOVED working with Tracie Jean Photo. Tracie and her assistant are awesome. It's probably the first time I have worked with a pro photog that I actually felt comfortable and not forced. I just sent her some ideas for our newborn photos and she emailed me back almost immediately with more ideas (building off our maternity shoot) and info on what we need to bring to the newborn shoot to get the photos that we want.
I just went to the Mamarazzi night out at Blue Cocoon. Lindsey from Smith digital photography was there. Amazing women learned so much in the class, how to take better pictures and use my camera. Her pictures are priceless. I love how she caputres the natural quality of the moment. We are going to use her to take our photos. I have heard amazing things form other friends that have used her. Can't wait! You can go on facebook.com/bluecocoon and they have a link to her website.
We have used Patrick Banfield for newborn - one year sessions (and beyond). He is super affordable and gives you the rights to the pictures. www.patban.com
