Yes, we offer free NICU sessions for families in medical crisis. Sessions follow hospital protocols with no flash photography and minimal equipment to ensure patient safety and comfort.

How are photos edited?
Images receive professional retouching including skin smoothing, color correction, and minor adjustments. We maintain natural aesthetics while removing distractions like baby acne or flyaway hairs.
