I had the honor of photographing this sweet little boy, He slept during his whole session. I got to use a few props one of which is my favorite Winnie the pooh set up. He rocked his session! When preparing for a newborn session please follow the directions as best you can so that baby sleeps during s/her session. If you would like to book a session please email me.
This sweet little one was 11 days old for her newborn session and the perfect mix of sleepy and awake. I love the neutral backdrops that are timeless. We used a little browns for the props.

Time to save some dates!! I know time can get away from us with school starting and just a hetic life. I wanted to share some of the Fall/Christmas mini sessions coming this year!
Fall minis will be around the end of Oct. Early Nov…this is dependant on the leaves changing colors so the dates can change. I will have two locations.
The first location is a little spot in short pump that has very pretty fall folliage.
The other is a little farm with a red barn and tall grass with some cut outs and walk ways that will make a beautiful fall backdrop.
Santa and Mrs. Clause will be back in the studio this year! This is always sold out so grab your spot before they are gone. Dec. 2nd from 10a.m. - Noon
Red Truck minis will be held on Dec. 2nd in the late afternoon.
Christmas Tree farm minis will be held on Dec 3rd in the late afternoon.
Christmas and Fall backdrops are always an option for newborns and babies just in case its too cold outside. Here are a few of the backdrops I have available.

Welcome new baby S. This gorgeous newborn baby girl made me swoon. She is just the sweetest little thing ever. She was super alert during her newborn session which means I got lots of snuggle time. although her happiest place is with her beautiful mama. She had me working for these image but we did get so many great ones!
I hope you enjoy a peek into her newborn photography session...
Hiring a newborn photographer is more than just a price!
Please do your homework when hiring someone to work with your newest little bundle. I totally understand that pricing can be scary when it comes to hiring your photographer, but these are moments you will never get back! They are fragile and so small. Your photographer should be trained and highly experienced. You aren’t just paying for your photographer to take the images, you are paying for an experience. This is just a small portion of what goes into a newborn session.
There is planning, deciding on the colors you would like to use. Choosing props for the set up and following instructions to make the session move smoothly.
This is before and after of just the editing portion of 1 newborn pose. Most galleries are between 10-50+ images. Each image is edited and cared for so that each picture you recieve is perfect! A full gallery takes hours to cull, edit and refine. Consider all these when you are expecting a new baby. I love all my clients and am so thankful for the trust they put in me to capture these beautiful moments.
Please do your research before just hiring anyone to handle your sweet little baby.

When you first find out you are pregnant it feels like you have all the time in the world. You’re careful not to start buying things too early and wait longingly for each scan to see that little face. And then, in a flash 9 months has passed and your baby is here. A great way to capture those early moments to remember forever is with a Newborn Photo shoot.
I used to be know as the In home newborn photographer. As of this year, I want to make the switch to in studio newborn photography. I used to bring the studio to your home but since I have gotten older 51 yrs and had a surgery late last year it just isn’t feasible for me to travel like I used to. I’ve been in business for over 11 yrs. I have photographed hundreds of newborns, babies and families and I think its time to make the switch. I can still come to your home but the price will be different. I will still offer on location outside photography.
In home sessions are going to be more expensive than studio sessions. Your photographer needs to plan and gather all of the appropriate props, pack up all of her equipment, travel to your home, set up the equipment, break down and pack up the equipment again, travel back and then unload the equipment and props again. She also needs to be skilled to handle different lighting scenarios and be able to work around other obstacles a studio photographer does not have to encounter.
A studio photoshoot gives your the opportunity to relax for a few hrs. There is no need to worry whether your home is clean. You just need to get yourself to the photographers home studio and remember to take anything you’d like to include in your images. I have a wide variety of props, outfits and wraps for a newborn that are all sanitized and cleaned after each session.
My home studio is cleaned and sanitized after each session. I have a large prop collection you could choose from if you decide to change your mind during your session. The lighting is consistent and we don’t have to worry about moving furniture and taping up your windows. I have a few games the siblings could play or an echo view they could be entertained after we have photographed them with the new baby or a parent could take them to daycare.
I will still offer lifestyle newborn photography but that is not my specialty I have many years training and have gone to conferences as well as 1:1 mentoring with the top newborn photographers in the US.
I have photographed maternity, newborns, and babies up to one year old and beyond n my studio. I have many backdrops for families and the littles one to choose from as well as burp cloths and more at my home studio.
I look forward to working with you in 2023!

I need your help, Could you take a moment and leave me a review on Google? If I have taken any picture's of you or your family could you please write a review? 5 stars or a little brief how was your experience, would be fantastic. I greatly appreciate your help and looking forward to capturing your memories in 2023!
How lucky am I to have been working with the same Santa for a few years now! He even brought Mrs. Santa with him this year to the studio! ! I wish honestly I could have done 2 straight days of Santa Minis because they were so sweet and magical. How fun to witness the joy and magic (and fear haha) that comes from kids when they meet Santa. Santa was so sweet with everyone and won over the most fearful of kids by the end of their time with him. He was so gentle and really made an effort to make a connection with each kid individually. Some of the kids brought their lists directly to him, and he brought Mrs. Santa to help ease some of the kids fears. If you missed out this year just know this will definitely be something I do next year!
This sweet baby girl was incredible at her newborn session. Just look at those full cheeks and sweet little face. I absolutely love photographing babies and capturing this precious time in my clients lives.
Sweet little N. was 10 days new. She was the perfect model. This family came to my home studio for the Petite newborn session. This session is baby ONLY for 30 min and you get 5 digital downloads. I provide all the outfits, wraps, headbands and props. However, if you would like to use anything special for the session I am more than willing to incorporate it into the session.
One of my favorite props is the heart shaped bowl. There are so many different ways to use this prop.
Why a heart?
A heart is life, a heart is love, a heart is happiness.
As a newborn photographer and mother, I know how special bringing new life into the world can be, which is why I wanted to incorporate a heart prop for my families to choose from. The heart signifies the new little life you are bringing into this world, a person you will love, with your whole heart, forever. A heart is our life source.
My photography goal is to capture the life and love of each unique moment.
My commitment is to make each family fall in love with their baby and bottle up that feeling to keep forever.
This sweet baby boy was incredible at his newborn session. Just look at how tiny he was 5lbs and perfect baby boy. I absolutely love to photograph newborn babies. I bring all the wraps, outfits, props etc to your home. We can incorporate whatever prop you would like to use as well.
This sweet little one was 21 days old for her newborn session and the perfect mix of sleepy and awake. I love the neutral and pink colors we choose for this session as well. I set up the studio in their home so the family wouldn’t have to travel. I clean and sanitize everything after each session. I also wear a mask .
Sweet K. was a perfect model and even let me put her in a froggy pose.
If you are interested in booking a newborn session for your little one please send me an email.

The sweetest new family of 4 here on my blog today! I was able to capture this adorable family a few years ago for her sons sessions and was so happy to have this couple back for their newborn and family photoshoot! I cannot get over their baby girl and how well she did for her session and Big brother was so good with her. Here are a handful of my favorites from this in home studio newborn session!
Mom wanted a simple cream/white session for her sweet little girl. We also incorporated flowers and Moms wedding dress in some of the poses. Big Brother was a so good with his little sister considering he is still a baby himself. Mom also wanted more lifestyle instead of posed for their family portion of the session. The light in their basement was perfect. I brought the studio to the comfort of their home. I clean and sanitize everything after each session. These are a few of my favorites from her session.
Studio newborn sessions are what I’m most known for and they are probably my favorite sessions to shoot. I love getting in my newborn cuddles! To have this many people trust me with their brand new babies means the word to me. I got to photograph Baby X. 11 days new. He was such a good model and Big Sis who is only 15 months old did amazing with him. I look forward to working with this family again.
Mom wanted to use the toilet paper prop since her baby was born during Covid19
Introducing C. 6 days new. I love when i get to photograph families as they grow. I photographed her older brother a few years back and now i got to meet his baby sister. I loved the simple white and creams used for her session. Its classic and i love when parents want to use simple yet classic setups for their newborn session. It was perfectly feminine for this sweet girl. Check out some of my favorite images from this studio session below:
I love when siblings connect .
