20 years of experience working with babies.
Newborn photography isn’t just about the beautiful pictures. It requires patience, safety knowledge, and experience. I’ve photographed hundreds of babies. I practice a safe baby-led approach. Every baby is different and my experience helps me anticipate what their needs are and what will work for them. I care for each of these children as if they were my own. My clients have trusted me with their most precious gifts for 2 decades and I could not be more grateful.

A Calm & Comfortable Newborn Experience
Bringing your baby to a photo session can feel overwhelming, especially when you're still adjusting to life with a newborn. My goal is to make the experience simple, comfortable, and stress-free from beginning to end. Newborn sessions include plenty of time for feeding, soothing, changing, and snuggling. There is never a need to rush. We follow your baby's cues and create a calm environment.
Whether you prefer sweet, simple portraits or a more styled session, every image is created with your baby’s safety in mind. You don’t need to worry about bringing anything, everything is provided. If you have personal items that are meaningful, I am happy to include them. You’ll share all of this and your preferences for the session on the pre-session consultation form.
When Should You Schedule Your Newborn Session?
The best time for newborn portraits is typically within the first 5–14 days after birth when babies are usually extra sleepy and naturally curl into those sweet newborn poses. However, every baby is different, and beautiful newborn portraits can still be captured beyond this timeframe. I welcome babies of all ages, the approach just changes.
The best time to reserve your session is during pregnancy, ideally in your second or third trimester. I recommend booking before your baby arrives so we can plan your session around your expected due date. You’ll fill out a consultation form and share all of your inspiration and preferences for the session.
We welcome last minute sessions too!

Newborn Frequently asked Questions
-
Unless you have a special outfit, you don’t need to bring anything for your baby. I also have many dresses that work well for new mothers. I suggest soft colors, texture over pattern and a blended color palette, not overly matching. Avoid, tight clothing, loud color or patterns, logos, & words or pictures.
