Choosing the studio session rather than having an in-home session.
Some families think that having in-home sessions is much more relaxing than having an in-studio session.
From our experience, in-home sessions are more stressful for all family members and for photographers.
The photographer will bring along enough equipment, props, bags, floor drops, backdrops, etc., and will need enough space to do beautiful artwork for your family. Photographing in unfamiliar surroundings and unfamiliar lighting can be an additional challenge.
In comparison, when the session is held in the professional studio, you leave your busy household behind and arrive at the fully prepared studio, with professional equipment, a light, relaxing lounge zone, and various beautiful set-ups for your little one. For all our clients who have got to our studio, it felt like a breath of fresh air and a mini-vacation from their homes and sleepless nights.
We always send a Session Preparation Guide to parents to conduct beautiful and relaxing sessions. So on session day, they know what to do from the moment they leave their house till the moment the session is finished. The newborn photography session is tailored for your newborn and there is no time limit to the photo session, allowing your baby to take a break whenever he/she wants a feed or needs to be settled.
Chepolinko Fine Art Portrait Studio location is also great for families with older kids and for families who wish to do an outdoor session. There are two parks with nice playgrounds for kids. So, during a 2-3 newborn session, one of the family members can take older kids to the park and have fun there or stay at the studio play at the kid’s corner or watch TV.
We tried our best to design our studio for the maximum comfort of our dear clients and to bring in a cozy, homey, stylish atmosphere.
Photographer
Alina: Representative and photographer of Chepolinko, the first studio in Tokyo specializing in newborn photography.
Alina came to Japan in 2010 and started her professional career in maternity and newborn photography in 2014. She has experience photographing children of all ages and personalities, including babies with special needs and disabilities.
She says, “After having my first baby in December 2013, I truly understood the beauty and preciousness of new life. I also realized how special moments can race by in a blur.
As a mother of two children, I have deepened my knowledge of children and physiology. I have actively participated in various pieces of training and workshops to understand the anatomy and physiology of newborns, the range of motion possible in posing, and the risks involved in taking photographs. Baby’s safety and comfort are the most important things to me.”
Alina also has a strong passion for design, art, interior design, and crafts.
She produces original designs and creates unique art that suits each client’s taste and image.
Chepolinko Studio is designed to provide a comfortable shooting experience not only for babies and children but for the whole family. We do our best to provide the highest quality photographic experience for all of our clients.”
