Photographing the magic of life, love & joy
Maternity & Newborn
I am a lifestyle photographer and focus on capturing real moments and memories in beautifully composed photographs! All of my sessions, including newborn sessions, are focused on natural moments in guided poses and prompts. I believe that regular photography of you and your loved ones is important and really truly matters. Not just because you need the perfect posed image on your wall or holiday card. that’s important, but that’s not exactly the point. The point is capturing life and love and family as it is today so that you can come back to the magic of these moments year after year!
MY APPROACH
POSING
I look for genuine connections and telling the story of your love and family as it is today. That means I look for ways to keep you moving, loving and laughing so that every image comes together naturally. I will talk you through absolutely everything so that at no time do you actually feel like you're posing or not sure what to do.
PLANNING
In order to ensure you get the best possible images, I provide clear communication and assistance from styling and extensive prep guides for your session I offer. I also provide additional planning support from choosing locations, the best light of the day and outfit planning support.
EASY-GOING
You can expect me to come organized with a smile on my face and to bring an easy going vibe to your session. I genuinely love being with you while capturing your stories and your love. Nothing excites me more than seeing when you are just in the moment and the light is just right!

DECIDING BETWEEN STUDIO OR IN-HOME
IN-STUDIO
In-studio is a perfect option for a neutral backdrop and furniture with great light & snacks! In studio sessions include a bassinet, posing pillow and a small assortment of gowns/swaddles. You're also welcome to bring items and outfits that are sentimental to you!
IN YOUR HOME
In your home is a great option for feeling comfortable and having access to rooms and items that are sentimental to you. I do not bring props as I prefer to focus on what is natural to and/or sentimental to you and your home but I do have a few available gowns/swaddles for use.
IN-STUDIO OR IN-HOME NEWBORN OPTIONS ARE both great options and come down to what makes you the most comfortable and where the light is the best!
 
ALL PACKAGES INCLUDE:
 
SESSION & OUTFIT PLANNING SUPPORT
I believe that not only do you deserve beautiful images from your session, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience. One way I provide that is by ensuring you come to your session feeling excited and prepared to ensure you feel super comfortable in front of my camera! For that reason, every session comes with a session planning guide as well as outfit-planning resources!
NO CAP ON IMAGES AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD
I don't put a cap on the number of images available for you to download within your gallery. What is listed is a minimum number of images to expect and I often deliver much more! I do this because I believe that some of the silly or in-between moments are some of the images you will love the most one day in the future and I don't want you to pick and choose between a smiling one and an image for the memory!
GALLERY DELIVERY EXPECTATIONS
I promise a 2 week turnaround of images but the truth is, I typically deliver faster. While I cannot always guarantee a faster delivery (unless you pay for rush) I strive to deliver much faster than my guarantee. The reason I keep my guarantee at 2 weeks is to allow myself grace during peak seasons of photography and life as a mom.
