Maternity Sessions
Maternity sessions are a beautiful way to celebrate this special — and temporary — season of life.
These sessions are relaxed and gently guided, focusing on connection and emotion. Partners and children are always welcome, and sessions may take place indoors, outdoors, or on our farm property for a natural, organic feel.
To help you feel confident and comfortable, a curated client closet is available for maternity sessions, featuring flattering, timeless pieces designed specifically for pregnancy. This allows you to arrive relaxed and photo-ready, without the stress of finding the perfect outfit.
When to book:
Maternity sessions are typically scheduled between 29–34 weeks of pregnancy. Availability is limited, so early booking is recommended.
Newborn Sessions
For your baby’s comfort, the studio is kept warm and calm, creating the ideal environment for a relaxed, unhurried baby-led session.
As both a newborn photographer and a mom, I understand how delicate and precious these first days are. Your baby’s comfort and safety always come first.
A thoughtfully stocked client closet is also available for parents and newborn, offering neutral, soft-toned wardrobe options that photograph beautifully and coordinate seamlessly with your newborn’s session.
When to book:
Newborn sessions are best booked during pregnancy and photographed within the first 5–14 days after birth, when babies are naturally sleepier and more flexible.
What to expect:
Sessions typically last 1–2 hours, depending on your selected package and your baby’s needs. Feeding, soothing, diaper changes, and cuddles are all part of the process — and completely expected.
Parents are encouraged to relax. Many read, nap, or simply enjoy watching their baby be photographed.
