One day, those tiny fingers will wrap around yours for the last time.
Those sleepy stretches, little yawns, flaky toes and curled-up snuggles will slowly disappear before you even realize they're gone.The newborn stage is incredibly short, but the memories don't have to be.
Let's preserve them together.
Those first few weeks can feel like a beautiful blur, and the last thing I want is for your session to add more stress.
My newborn sessions are calm, relaxed and completely baby-led. If your little one needs to eat, we'll take a break.
Need extra cuddles? That's perfectly okay. Need a diaper change? We've all been there.
There's never any rushing. We simply follow your baby's lead and capture this chapter exactly as it unfolds.
Whether you choose baby-only portraits or include parents and siblings, my goal is to create timeless images that feel just as beautiful years from now as they do today.
The best time to photograph your newborn is within the first 7–21 days after birth, while they're still naturally sleepy and love being curled into those adorable newborn poses. We recommend reserving your session during your second trimester to ensure availability. Once your baby arrives, we'll schedule your session based on their actual birthday. And if your little one is already a little older, don't worry. Beautiful newborn portraits aren't limited to a specific number of days. It's never too late to capture this special chapter.
Your baby's safety is never something I take lightly.
As a Baby Safety Certified Photographer trained by internationally recognized newborn photographer Ana Brandt, your baby's safety and comfort are my highest priorities. Every pose is done gently, safely, and always at your baby's pace.
If your little one needs extra cuddles, a feeding break, or simply doesn't want to cooperate, that's perfectly okay. Their comfort and safety will always come before getting a particular pose. That means you can relax, knowing your baby is in experienced, caring hands from the moment you walk through the studio door.
The nursery will change. The newborn clothes will be packed away. The tiny stretches and sleepy snuggles will become memories. Let's capture them before they're gone.
