Maternity/Newborn Shoot - Narrowed it down - Help me decide!
So I think I've narrowed down my choices for my Maternity/Newborn shoot to either Michelle McFadden or Summerlyn. I love their styles and their work is so great!!! Help me decide!!
If you've used someone else and LOVED them, please recommend them and share your pics!
TIA!!!

I have only used Summerlyn and she was amazing. She was so calm with my DS, and us. Here are a couple of my favorites...

I'm using AvaJack. Love, love, love her work. I used her for my first PG maternity pics (in my album) and will be using her for maternity/newborn again this time around.

I already contacted Summerlyn--before I was 6 weeks! I felt crazy doing that but I know she books up in advance and saw on her site that she has limited availability in Dec/Jan. I'm obsessed with her pics!

I think its something you need to decide.
Both are good photographers but with different styles.
Its what you want..and look for in.
Either way, you cant go wrong.
GL to you!

Not sure what your budget is, but I think there is a huge price differential between Michelle McFadden and Summerlyn. Also, Summerlyn books fast, so you should contact her ASAP if she is one of your top choices.
Hmmm... good point!! Where would I be able to find their pricing? Can someone FM who's used either before?

Nevermind!! Just found the pricing on their websites. They seem to be around the same range. That just complicates it even more!

I'm looking at using Jenna- she was an '08 bride- do you remember her Maria?
Anyway, she did a couple shoots with SummerLyn but her pricing is much less- I will send you her blog- I know she is working on updating it now

Agree. I've already set up for after this baby arrives. She did so good with my 2yo cranky pants DD last winter.
