Motherhood is beautiful and it all starts here! These sweet and fleeting times disappear quickly BUT they don't have to be forgotten. Take this time to savor these moments and allow me to beautifully capture them for you with timeless photos you will love reliving time and again.

how a maternity & newborn session works:


Welcoming a little one into the family is such an amazing time in the motherhood journey! My goal with these sweet sessions is to capture the beauty and tenderness of this short time.


For maternity sessions, I will focus on you and your loved one gently anticipating the arrival of your new one. These can take place outside in a field with a setting sun or in the comfort of your lovely home. I aim to keep you relaxed and focused on the love you share with each other and with the small one you have yet to meet.


Newborn sessions are focused on keeping baby happy and relaxed, which is mostly in your arms snuggled in close. We will work around your tiny one's needs by staying attentive to their needs and rhythms, pausing whenever we need for feedings, naps, diaper changes, too. My focus will be on you as a new family as well as all the tiny details of your precious newborn. I aim for a very calm and peaceful experience, one that you will be able to enjoy forever.

Above all, I love making sure that your family feels cared for, relaxed, loved, and celebrated! This is such an incredible time in your life that I treat with all the care in the world.


Starting with Hello


1. A Simple Inquiry


Once you reach out (and I do a little happy dance) I will send you the information on how to book, pricing info, and answers to any questions you have for me about this process.


2. Book & Plan Time


Once you decide this is the perfect decision for your family, we will book your date for maternity photos and leave your newborn photo session flexible to allow you time to prepare well after baby is born. I'll send over a questionnaire to get to know you better and see what you are hoping and dreaming of for these sessions. Then I will send over a preparation guide to help you and your family with planning for the session day!


3. The Main Event


Capturing your growing belly or the sweet first moments of your brand new babe, these sessions are calm, grace filled, and surrounded by joy. With gentle prompts I'll guide your family and keep things flexible as to capture those natural, authentic moments you share with your loved ones. Expect to enjoy a lot of snuggles, tender moments, a calm atmosphere, and no stress.


4. Afterwards


Once I've captured all the goodness I hand edit your photos keeping them true to color, clear, and soft. These will be digitally delivered in a beautiful gallery were you are free to download them, purchase prints, wall art, or albums. They are yours to enjoy and to share!
