the process

01. Dreaming

A mother in an off-white sweater dress kisses her newborn baby on the forehead. The baby is wrapped in a brown blanket.

We'll dream and plan ALL the details - from sets to wardrobe to prints, you'll have everything figured out!

The best time to schedule your little one's newborn session is when they are between 5 and 14 days old. Reach out prior to when they are born and update me the day after they are born for the best possible availability.

No need to worry about prepping too much. I'll provide all the outfits and props, as well as create a calming atmosphere for your newborn's session. To help ensure your baby is comfortable, you will be provided with a session prep guide, telling you exactly what essentials should be packed in your diaper bag. I'll take care of the rest, so you can relax and enjoy the experience!

03. Session time

A newborn sleeps on his stomach on a white blanket. A blue blanket is draped over him and fanned out.

Your newborn will be gently posed in soft, cozy wraps or outfits chosen from my curated studio wardrobe. The session will be baby-led, focusing on capturing your little one's natural movements and quiet moments in a relaxed, peaceful setting. During family photos, I'll help guide you through every step, ensuring your and your baby feel comfortable and at ease. Together, we'll create images that highlight the uniqueness of your newborn's earliest days, preserving these moments for years to come.

The pricing

Only invest in the photos that make your heart smile. No packages, no pressure—just the images you truly love.

If you’ve ever shopped for art of any kind before, you know prices are all over the map… and that’s certainly true with photography as well. And like with other art, those prices aren’t easily compared - it’s not apples to apples.

With a session fee of $300 and fully custom collections ranging from $550 to $1150, you’re investing in a personalized experience tailored to your needs. My unique process ensures you’ll get exactly what you want—whether you prefer lots of guidance or just a little—resulting in beautiful images and prints that you'll cherish for years to come.
