Capturing
the Beauty that is pregnancy

What an exciting time in your life! If you are taking a peek at this page, I assume you are expecting a sweet little baby soon! CONGRATS! Maternity sessions are my ABSOLUTE favorite. There is so much joy and anticipation about bringing a new life to your family. I would absolutely LOVE to capture this special time for you and your family.

Pregnancy is one of those life experiences that you can never replicate. This moment will never come again and I believe it is SO important to capture it so that you have these memories to cherish 50 years down the road when your children are grown and have children of their own. This should be an absolute joyous experience to capture your pregnancy glow. At no other point in your life will your photographer ask you to make your belly pop!

Your maternity sessions can be taken in your home/nursery, outdoor, or in studio. And, of course, I encourage your partner to be there for some of your photos as well! We want to capture the love ya’ll share and the joy you are experiencing together bringing in a new life.

On Location

These session take place on location which can be in your home or at an outdoor location. Up to 2 outfit changes are included in your session and I can help in your choosing of a dress/outfits for yourself and any styling for your family. On location sessions include 15 digital images delivered via an online gallery with optional upgrades.

*I recommend Maternity Sessions taking place between 32-34 weeks.

Studio

Studio Maternity Portraits are my favorite way to capture this beautiful season of growing a life. These session take place in studio and include profession hair and makeup as well as your choice of 2-3 outfits/dresses from the client closet. I have created Collection options for product and digital files as well as A la Carte options.

the Beauty that is new life

Ideally, prior to your newborn session we will have done a maternity session together! This will give us the opportunity to get to know each other prior to the arrival of your sweet little one. Newborn sessions can be done in your home as In Home Lifestyle Sessions, In Studio Wrap/Combo, or In Home Wrap/Lifestyle Combo. If you choose to do a lifestyle session you will have everything you need already there. Anything extra that is needed I will bring! Before you panic! If you don’t get to wash those dirty dishes or pick up the pile of laundry, it will be ok! We will work around what we need to and we will pick up clutter from the specific areas we are shooting. When we chat during booking and prior to your session we will discuss choosing locations within your home that will be best for lighting and posing.

Prior to your session I recommend making sure your home is nice and warm. Newborn babies cannot regulate their own body temperature yet so I suggest turning your thermostat up to around 80 degrees about 30 minutes prior to your session starting. The warmer temperature will help baby sleep better and stay happy. It is also a good idea to try and feed baby as close to the beginning of our session as possible. Full tummy makes for a happier baby. But don’t worry if things don’t go as planned! Newborns are unpredictable and have their own schedule, we will go with the flow and get beautiful images no matter what.

Newborn Sessions start at $450 for Lifestyle.

Newborn Investment

Lifestyle

Lifestyle sessions typically take anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on baby, in your home. They are candid, unposed, artistically captured images to portray the raw emotion of the moment. Lifestyle sessions include 10 digital images delivered via an online gallery with optional upgrades.

Studio

Studio sessions are posed sessions that take a bit more time. A typical posed session may last anywhere from 1 to 3 hours. Posed sessions result are those doll-like images that will make family and friends go crazy from cuteness overload. Along with posing and props, you will also get lifestyle family images. Studio sessions include 8 digital images delivered via an online gallery with optional upgrades.

In home

In home combination sessions are where I come to your home with all studio props. These sessions generally take a minimum of 2 hours due to set up. These sessions include both posed baby images with props as well as lifestyle family images in your home. In home combination sessions include 8 digital images delivered via an online gallery with optional upgrades. 

Fresh 48

Fresh 48 sessions take place within the first 48 hours of baby's life. These take place wherever it is that you gave birth (typically hospital or home). Fresh 48 sessions capture the raw initial moments of baby's life and your growing family. Fresh 48 sessions include 10 digital images delivered via an online gallery.

*Ask about a discounted fresh 48 when booking another newborn session.
