MATERNITY & NEWBORN SESSIONS

I am a lifestyle photographer and focus on capturing real moments and memories in beautifully composed photographs! I believe that regular photography of you and your family 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!

For newborn sessions, I do not bring props or outfits. I like to photograph more naturally in your home and element with you and your family and by themselves. For just baby, I like to capture them in their cribs, on changing tables, on a soft blankets on floor or poufs, etc. while focusing on showing how tiny they are in those early days and their beautiful features such as eyes, nose and toes!

Typically I take photos with baby in just a diaper with a cover or swaddled and then in an outfit of your choice!

When To Plan Your Maternity & Newborn Session

Your maternity session is typically best between 28-32 weeks when many women feel like their belly has officially popped but they are still relatively comfortable. There are always exceptions to this so if you'd like to schedule your session earlier or later I'm happy to work with you!

For newborn sessions I know that their official birthday is hard to predict so I put your due-date on my calendar and then keep some room in my schedule to allow booking 2-4 weeks after their official arrival. I anxiously await the news from you that they are here once you're home and settled in a bit and together we find a date and time that works best.
