I'm so glad you're here! If you're anything like I was after bringing home my babies, you're probably somewhere between soaking in every little newborn snuggle and wondering how it's already been a week since you washed your hair.
Those early days are beautiful and messy and exhausting all at once, and my hope is that your newborn session feels like one less thing to worry about.
No pressure for anyone to perform. No expectation that your house is spotless or that your baby sleeps the whole time.
You just love on your people. I'll take care of the rest.

interested in a newborn session?
Hey Mama-
What Newborn Sessions Are Like
My approach is lifestyle-focused and connection-driven. That means capturing your baby just as they are... tiny details, soft stretches, the way they curl into you, and the quiet love that fills the room.
$395
- 1–2 hour newborn + family session
- In-home, studio, or outdoor location
- Gently guided, baby-led experience
- Full client prep guide (including outfit guidance)
- Access to my swaddles and simple newborn props
- Carefully edited, high-resolution digital images
- Online gallery for downloading and ordering prints
After you reach out, we’ll choose a tentative session date based around your due date or baby’s arrival and start planning a session that feels natural and true to your family.
A signed contract and $50 retainer officially reserve your session on my calendar, and you’ll receive access to your client portal along with a short questionnaire so I can start getting to know your family, your style, and the moments that matter most to you before we ever meet! This part is one of my favorites because it helps us feel like friends from the very beginning!
Step 1: Inquire & Plan
Inside your client portal, you’ll find everything you need to help the session feel simple and stress-free leading up to the day. You’ll receive:
• a newborn welcome guide
• simple outfit guidance
• tips for preparing siblings
• answers to common questions
• and ideas to help everything feel relaxed and smooth
I’ll guide you through everything along the way!
Step 2: Prep Made Simple
Newborn sessions usually last 1-2 hours and are calm, baby-led, and intentionally relaxed.
We’ll take breaks whenever needed for feeding, changing, soothing, or simply slowing down for a minute. I’ll gently guide you through natural posing and interaction so nothing feels stiff or overly posed.
And truly? Your home does not need to look Pinterest-perfect. A few softly lit spaces and your people together are more than enough!
Step 3: Session Day (yay!)
After your session, you’ll receive an edited online gallery filled with hand-curated images from this season of your life.
All high-resolution digital downloads are included with your session, making it easy to save, share, and print your images however you'd like.
Your gallery also includes access to professional-quality prints, albums, and framed artwork directly through my print lab. You will also receive a print credit with your gallery! I always encourage printing your photos whenever you can because these are the moments that deserve to be held onto and remembered beyond a phone screen.
Step 4: Your Gallery + Prints
- You want natural, relaxed images
- You prefer a low-stress experience
- You love soft, light, timeless photography
- You want photos that feel like your real life... just beautifully documented
- You love the idea of newborn photos, but prefer connection focused gentle poses
- You want guidance... but not pressure.
