Combined with the golden hour glow, it’s the ultimate backdrop for summer sessions! Unfortunately, finding a beautiful blooming field locally can be tough. I’ve found that many sessions take place on people’s private property, so finding a public place to get this perfect background is rare! That’s why I’ve compiled this list!

Is there a sentimental piece of jewelry, a vintage baby bonnet, or a beloved toy that has been in your family for generations? Utilizing a family heirloom in your session is such a special way to represent the connection between generations, and can really elevate your images into something even more special.

This mama hand crocheted many items for her sweet boy throughout her pregnancy. She had skillfully created multiple blankets, outfits, and stuffed animals with her own two hands. I was super impressed, and just think that is so unbelievably special, so I was very excited when she told me she wanted to incorporate some of what she had made into her son’s newborn session.

Babies can have many different reactions to being photographed. Some babies laugh and giggle, some are more serious or curious, and some become shy in a new environment. Whatever reaction your baby has, IT IS OKAY!

I am a traveling photographer, bringing the “studio” to you for posed newborn photos, while also utilizing your home for more relaxed and cozy family photos. If you loved the traditional newborn poses, but love the cozy lifestyle family poses, choose a photographer like me, who offers the best of both worlds!

A good Newborn Photographer will never force a baby into a pose, or sacrifice your baby’s safety for the sake of a photo. Remember that each baby is different, and your child’s session will be unique to him or her.

An amazing Maternity Photographer will make you feel beautiful in your pregnant body.

That’s the reality of newborn photography. You can prep and plan for a session all you want, but babies are humans too, and sometimes they have their own agenda. And that is totally okay!

Parents should be prepared to let their child be themselves during their session. Whether it's a spontaneous giggle, a mischievous grin, or a full-blown belly laugh, our goal is authentically freeze these precious moments!

These beautiful twins were SO different from each other, which was so cute! Miss Blue was a smiley little model, while Miss Purple was very skeptical of me and my camera.

Babies grow so rapidly, especially in their first year, and it is so so special to have beautiful photographs taken along the way, to look back on and admire just how much your baby has grown in such a short time. Milestone sessions are the perfect way to ensure you have those timeless images to cherish for years to come.

I love capturing shots of baby putting their face directly into the cake- it’s definitely a parent favorite!
