I'll send you my newborn guide that includes all of my best tips, location suggestions as well as access to my client closet so you can choose what you would like for me to bring to your session(s). I will also create an outfit mood board upon request with links to outfits to take the stress out of coordination your family outfits. 

Once baby arrives, you will let me know and we will coordinate a day and time within the next few weeks.  Most mamas opt for 2-3 weeks after birth to capture those newborn features, but it's completely up to you.   I'll arrive with your chosen dresses, baby attire, swaddles and bows, and then you'll get to relax as I guide you through this session together.  I schedule 2-3 hours for our time together to allow for feeding and changing as baby needs without anyone feeling rushed.

After inquiring through the contact page here, I will send you more information within 48 hours for you to review. 

When you decide which collection you'd like to book, you'll send me an email to let me know which best fits your needs.  A signed contract and non-refundable retainer is due to reserve your session spot or due date on my calendar.

frequently asked questions

when should we book our newborn session?

I recommend booking as you enter your second trimester.  This will reserve your due date on my calendar, and if you opt for a collection that includes a maternity session then we will have time to prepare and schedule it (typically between 28-32 weeks)

how long have you been a photographer?

I have been photographing professionally for 6 years! I started out mainly photographing weddings, but a few years into starting a family I quickly fell in love with motherhood photography after realizing personally how much I cherish photos of me and my children.  I've fallen more and more in love with providing the same for other mamas and now solely photograph newborns and families. 

how long until we get photos back?

I love sending families sneak peek images within a few days of our session because I know that you're excited to share with loved ones!  You will receive the full gallery within 2-3 weeks.

If you're looking for a full service luxury and stress free photographer who provides bright, timeless and authentic images, I'm happy you're here! I can't wait to hear from you!
