Newborn Photography – Tampa Bay

IK Photoart provides customized newborn photography services in studio and in home in the Greater Tampa Bay area: Tampa, Clearwater, Dunedin, Largo, Seminole, St. Petersburg, and surrounding beaches. The studio is located in Seminole, Pinellas County.

Experience and Collections

The optimal time to book your newborn photographer is during your second trimester. IK Photoart books a limited amount of newborn sessions per month, so you want to be sure that you have your slot reserved in advance. Once the baby arrives, you simply call or email, and then the exact session date is determined for when the newborn is 5-14 days old.

In preparing for your experience, it’s good to understand what you’re looking for in the end.

We believe in delivering professionally designed and finished pieces of artwork so you and your descendants can enjoy them for years to come.

Your communication with IK Photoart begins with no charge, no obligations in-depth consultation that is  all about your expectations from the photo session. This can be done by email, phone, online meeting app like Zoom, Facebook Messenger or Skype, in person in my studio or in your home (highly recommended!). This allows us to meet and greet each other, so you can feel if I am the right photographer for you, and I can see if I am able to meet your needs. And if so…

We will discuss and plan your session location and go over all the details in order to create a perfect imaginary that will reflect your vision and your family style.

Sessions are available on weekday afternoons and weekend mornings.

Sessions are very comfortable and laid back with no rush and  plenty of time to capture the best images possible. They typically last between two and three hours. Newborn babies are absolutely unpredictable. If the baby needs to be fed, mom and dad are given enough time for feeding and nursing.

I am very passionate about giving you the experience you deserve and I take my job very seriously.

Lifestyle Newborn Session

It is all about your family and your home look and feel. It is an ideal way to portray the raw emotions of these special days. Candid, non-posed images, things captured just as they are. Real moments frozen in time for you and your family to enjoy for years to come. Lifestyle newborn session lasts about an hour, it does not require as much time as a posed newborn session, and are ideal for fussy babies or if you’d like to include active siblings or the family pet.

Posed Newborn Session

Posed newborn sessions take more time than a lifestyle newborn session, but it’s well worth it! This can be arranged in the comfort of the warm studio full of props, or in convenience of your home.  Handmade head pieces and wraps, baskets and blankets are available for your little one while we capture baby slumbering in sweet sleepy poses. A typical posed session lasts about 2-3 hours depends of the baby sleepiness.

We don not want you to have to choose your favorite images. Our photo session results in a collection of images that speak to your family unique beauty and connection, so no images should left behind.

My passion is family albums and wall art that pass from generation to generation, from grandparents, to their kids and grand kids. It is so important for us that we include a complementary archival quality printed product in each collection.

The heirloom albums are hand designed by the studio and include your favorite photos.

Included in each collection:

+ Pre-session consultation and  wardrobe styling guidance

+ Custom, personalized newborn photo session experience for newborn and parents.

+ Clothing, props and backgrounds for posed sessions

+ Professional editing  and retouching of each purchased image

+ Low resolution web-optimized files of the purchased images or sharing on social media.

Prints, wall art and other professional quality photo products are available a la cart separately.
