modern. simple. beautiful.

Congratulations!! Thank you for considering me to capture your newborn. Newborn photography is where I started in photography and what I love doing most of all. If I captured your wedding, I am even more thrilled you are here. I love documenting peoples lives and documenting more than one milestone is extremely rewarding.

I've been called the baby whisperer due to being very skilled at putting babies to sleep. I have 3 younger siblings that I helped raise and I've babysat many babies in my time. I discovered Anne Geddes when I was in high school, I think that's where the love of cute sleeping baby came from.

My main objective while capturing a newborn is to create art you can hang on your wall, share with family and friends, create birth announcements and cherish for the rest of your life.

Newborn Magic - sit back and be amazed at the wonderful imagery we create featuring your little nugget. Let me work my magic, rocking your little one to sleep, posing them is such a way to melt your heart.

During this session we'll use a mixture of posed and natural candid moments to create a variety of images for you to love forever.

Siblings and pets are welcome
2.5 - 3 hours
Best captured 5 - 14 days of birth

Book this session with a Maternity session and receive both sessions on a custom usb.

Lifestyle newborn sessions are the perfect way to capture your new baby in your home in a relaxed way. This is a great way to get images in your new nursery, with pets, etc. During these sessions, we will capture your family in a way that you can look back on and remember how you really were.

Siblings do great in this situation as well, allowing for authentic moments. No posing (either of the baby or family) is done in-home, just gentle and relaxed direction.

2.5 - 3 hour session
Best when captured 7 - 21 days after birth

I understand not everyone is looking for a ton of newborn photos and just want a simple newborn session to document your new baby. This session is more face paced and does not include any belly poses.

Siblings are welcome
40 - 60 minute session
In studio or In home

A pregnant woman is one of the most beautiful transformations the human body undergoes. Capturing that fleeting moment is amazing. A lot of women worry about stretch marks, and the weight gain that inevitably comes along while carrying a child. I understand your concerns and will use camera magic (and a little photoshop) to make them disappear.

Leaving you with amazing images, you will treasure forever.

Session is 60 minutes
Best captured 6 - 8 months when bump is bumpin'

What says “Happy Birthday” better than a cake? Cake Smash Sessions are the best way to celebrate the conclusion of your baby’s first year. This 45 minute session is spilt into 2 segments: the fist half of the session is used to capture some awesome portraits and the second half is cake-strava-ganza, where we put the cake down and let your baby go to town.

It's easiest to capture newborns between 5 and 14 days
The studio will be 80-85 degrees - a warm baby is a sleepy baby
Try to keep baby awake for an hour or 2 before coming out to the studio. This helps them be sleepier and easier to work with. They'll probably fall asleep in the car, that's ok.
Feeding is also essential to a happy sleepy baby. Feeding before you leave the house helps settle gas before you get to me. If you don't feed before you leave, just be prepared to feed when you get to the studio or when the baby starts to fuss too much.
If we are doing family pictures I like to start with them, unless the baby is super sound asleep this way you are less glowey
Feel free to bring anything you want in the photos - stuffed animal, blanket, name art headbands, hats, anything you'd like to watch them grow with
You can always bring multiple outfits and let me pick what we use. I love a simple onesie. Babies look so silly in clothes until they can fill them out
We will do naked pictures if the baby pees or poos, it happens. It won't be the first time, it won't be the last
Sessions can last up to 3 hours depending on how baby is feeling. Please feel free to bring snacks especially for siblings
There is something about the photographic process that makes newborns extra hungry so please bring extra formula or be prepared to nurse more than normal
Newborn sessions are a lot more of feeding, snuggling and soothing than they are photographing, so expect some down time
Nursing? Awesome. Please don't feel the need to be modest for my sake. My moms often are feeing while I am changing sets and while we chat. Nervous about it? I can step out of the room

No clothes are needed - for the baby - unless you have something you would like baby photographed in. A plain onesie in white, pink, blue, green, purple etc always looks great. You can bring up to 2 outfits, but babies hate to be changed and look best naked. I have wraps, outfits, head bands and hats you are more than welcome to use.

Mom and dad should dress natural. Bring two outfits as one may get pooped on. For siblings dress them in natural colors as well. Jeans, white shirts., etc. No logos or character shirts. Words get distorted and make the session more difficult. Feel free to send me pictures of your outfits if you want to get my advise and so I can match my sets to you better.

Skin to skin. I fully believe all people look best in their birthday suits. So if mom, dad or mom and dad would like to do skin to skin in their session, just let me know. It doesn't hurt my feelings seeing someone without a shirt on and they make for amazing photos.

schedule my appointment?

When you reach out to me to inquire about a session. Let me know your due date. I will put your due date in the calendar as our session date, that just lets me know between 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after we will have a baby.

Once baby gets here, when you get bored in the hospital, just text or email me that they're here and we will schedule whats best for everyone.

Babies come when they want. Letting me know the due date gives me an idea when we will be scheduling.
