One Day… One day your newborn will be taller th One Day...

One day your newborn will be taller than you.

You'll forget just how tiny they were against your chest.

How their feet fit in the palm of your hand.

How they curled up so perfectly while they slept.

Photographs aren't just about remembering what your baby looked like.

They're about remembering what this season of life felt like.

Can we all agree that the best photos almost never Can we all agree that the best photos almost never happen when everyone is looking at the camera? 

The magic usually happens somewhere between the toddler running away, Dad pretending he doesn't like photos (but secretly crushing it), Mom fixing everyone's hair, and me making the weirdest animal noises you've ever heard.

Spoiler alert: It always comes together.

So if you're worried your family is "too wild" for photos... I promise I've seen it all, and those are usually my favorite sessions.
Some babies just make my job entirely too easy. M Some babies just make my job entirely too easy.

Meet my sweet little niece. She may be related to me, but I promise this smile wasn't part of the family discount.

Watching her personality come out over the past year has been one of my favorite things to photograph. The gummy smiles, the tiny teeth, the little hand in her mouth... these are the moments that disappear before you realize they're gone.

One of the biggest things I hear from parents is, "I wish I had taken more pictures when they were little."

This is your reminder.

If your baby is sitting independently but isn't quite on the move yet, this is one of my favorite ages to photograph.

Sitter sessions for fall are now booking. If you've been thinking about capturing this stage, send me a message before it's gone.
"My Baby Is Already Two Weeks Old. Is It Too Late? "My Baby Is Already Two Weeks Old. Is It Too Late?"

I hear this question all the time, and the answer is almost always...no!

While I love photographing babies between 7-21 days old because they're typically sleepier and curl up naturally, I've photographed babies at 4, 6, and even 8 weeks old.

Your gallery may look a little different, but beautiful? Absolutely.

If you're wondering whether it's too late, reach out. I'd much rather photograph your baby a little later than have you miss this stage completely.
The One Woman Show People are always surprised wh The One Woman Show

People are always surprised when they find out it's just...me.

When you email, you're talking to me.

When you call, I answer.

When you walk into the studio, I'm the one fluffing blankets, warming the room, soothing your baby, taking the pictures, editing every image, answering emails after dinner, packing print orders, updating my website, paying taxes, and somehow remembering to feed the dog.

There isn't a marketing department or an assistant behind the scenes.

It's just one person who loves babies and somehow turned that love into a career.

Some days it's exhausting.

Most days I can't believe I get to call this my job.
The Images You'll Treasure Most Parents often tel The Images You'll Treasure Most

Parents often tell me they're booking newborn photos for the adorable sleepy poses.

And they absolutely love those.

But months later, they usually tell me something different.

Their favorite images are the ones of tiny fingers wrapped around Mom's hand.
Dad looking down at his baby.
A quiet forehead kiss.
The whole family together for the very first time.

Those are the moments that only become more valuable with time.
Let me guess. You don't have the budget perfectly Let me guess.

You don't have the budget perfectly mapped out. You're not feeling camera-ready. Your kid is 'going through a phase' that you're pretty sure will derail the whole thing.

Okay, good. 90% of my clients come to me with some version of exactly that - and to that I say: game on.

My job is to take everything off your plate so you can show up and just be present. Wardrobe, pacing, styling, the whole experience is built around making it feel manageable. The messy details have a way of becoming the best frames in your gallery anyway.

If you've been talking yourself out of booking because you're waiting to feel ready, this is me telling you to stop waiting.
