We deliver your photos edited

– which is not the same as retouched

We deliver your photos with basic editing, which includes everything that is done to the entire photos, such as color correction, contrast, crop. We don’t deliver the photos retouched, so we don’t do correction to skin, hair, body, or background. If this is important to you, you can add retouching services to your order. You will do this after you have received your photos and see changes you would like to get done. Please reach out, if you have questions about this.

What does FLAT FEE mean?

No extra charge to receive the digital files

We don’t believe in charging you just a fee for the session and then trying to sell you on products or prints after. What makes Deer Baby Photography simple is that ALL of our packages come with high resolution images so you can print your own!  If however, you would like professional quality prints, we do offer them through the gallery link that we send to you.

  • Retouching

    The photos that we deliver to you have been edited with basic editing (such as colors, contrast, crop). Skin, teeth, and body retouching is NOT included, but can be added for a fee if this is important to you.

  • Events

    We are also available to shoot birthday parties, ceremonies, baptisms, or your toddler’s first haircut! Prices for events are the same as our other sessions ($850 for two hours, and $200 for every additional hour after that, digital files included). There is a $75 surcharge for weekends and holidays. Show me Event Photos!

  • Delivery of Photos

    We aim to deliver all edited digital files within 4 weeks. Expedited service (7 days) can be purchased for a fee of $150.

  • Travel Fee

    We cover the entire NYC area, including Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, New Jersey, Westchester, CT, Long Island…. Depending on your location a travel fee might apply. Please ask for more information!

  • Gift Certificates

  • Photo Studio

    We do offer studio photography for rare occasions. But our recommendation is too shoot in places that you call home: Your actual home, a nearby park, your hood, your city. Let’s make your life your background!
