Gentle newborn photography for your family's very first chapter

Reserve your newborn session while you're expecting. I'll take care of the rest: a calm, baby-led session, safe and trained posing, and soft wraps and props, all provided.

How it feels

Slow, warm and completely baby-led

Newborn sessions should feel like a cozy, unhurried morning, not a photo shoot. We keep the room warm, follow your baby's rhythm, and take breaks for feeding and snuggles whenever they're needed.

Every pose is done with safety first, using careful, trained techniques. I bring the wraps, blankets and props, so all you need to bring is your little one. Parents, siblings and even the family dog are always welcome in the photos.

Good questions

What new parents ask most

Read the full guide and FAQ
When should I book my newborn session?

During your second trimester is ideal. Reserving early is the best way to make sure I'm available around your due date.

What if my baby comes early or late?

That is completely normal. Just send me a note once baby arrives and we will find a date that works, usually within the first one to two weeks.

What if my baby is fussy or awake?

Sessions are baby-led. We pause for feeding, cuddles and changes as often as needed, and wide-eyed photos are some of my favorites.

What should we wear?

Soft, neutral, solid colors photograph beautifully. My What to Expect guide has simple outfit ideas for parents and siblings.
