The 10 foot section also works well with maternity portraits and other artistic photos.

Hair and Makeup Space

The studio has also been used as a makeup, hair, and beauty salon.  Prior to sessions, some of my mothers-to-be and new parents alike, prefer to get pampered!.  Salon services are available by request and have an additional fee.  

Larger Groups

The photo studio is configurable to allow for additional family to be in the photo session.  As well as space for wider poses than your standard 6 foot-wide backdrop, a large group would be considered 8 family members in the studio.

Cameras & Lenses

Jennifer McNeil Photography uses Canon cameras and lenses in her photo studio.  She uses a Canon EOS 6D for her stunning photos, and typically will use a professional Canon 24-70mm lens with F/2.8 for the majority of her portraits.  She also has main stays of her equipment bag of the Canon EF 100mm Macro lens and a Canon Speedlite 600 EX II-RT

Lighting

The photo studio has the ability to have (4) 400 watt soft boxes for fill lighting during a session.  And has a 84″ diameter PLM umbrella soft lighting system to fill in all the shadows around the subject.  Every subject requires different lighting.  Newborns are usually softer more natural lighting, while models are more artistic.  All of these styles of lighting can be accomplished in the studio with different settings.

Along the side wall of the photo studio you will find a wide selection of props, wraps and accessories for your photo session.  Jennifer has a wide range of colors, styles and textures to help style your newborn session or add to children and family photos. There are endless combinations for your newborn baby to be swaddled, snuggled and safely positioned in. With the color options available, you can surely match the colors of your home or nursery.

Coordinate with Your Home

Many clients find the perfect match for a statement piece above the mantle or crib.  The layout of the items is such that during your pre-session consultation you can browse the items and help pick your choices for the photo session.  You can even update those selections during the session if new items are available.

All of props, wraps and accessories used in frame are thoroughly washed and sanitized after each session.  This gives you peace of mind for the cleanliness of the items touching your baby’s skin.  Being a mother herself, Jennifer understands the need for a clean environment for your little ones.  The photo studio is clean and tidy. Jennifer also up to date on all her vaccines, TB tests and flu shots to help you rest assured that your baby is in good hands.

For your comfort there is a sofa and two sitting chairs to relax in during the session in the photo studio.  The room has targeted heating and cooling to enable the babies to feel most comfortable during the shoots.  There are extra USB charging ports for your phones and a dedicated refreshment area to get tea and coffee during your session.
