I had a friend reach out to me, and get this question all the time: “Do you do newborn sessions?”
And the short answer is: Yes, I do!
But if you’re picturing a baby wrapped like a burrito and nestled in a basket with a headband bigger than their head… that’s not quite my thing.
My style is what I like to call real-life magic. It’s storytelling. It’s emotional. It’s close-ups of teeny toes, sleepy yawns, and the way you instinctively run your hand down your baby’s back. It’s capturing the way your partner looks at you when you’re rocking your little one at 2 weeks old—messy bun, tired eyes, and all.
These aren’t studio-styled portraits with props, flower crowns, or babies propped up on pillows.
Instead, I focus on natural moments, honest emotion, and connection.
So, What Does a Newborn Session With Me Look Like?
We’re usually in your home, where you’re most comfortable. I might catch baby in the crib just waking up. Maybe there’s a moment where you’re nursing or bottle-feeding. Or your partner’s curled up with baby on the couch while you sneak in a hot coffee (finally).
We’ll get those beautiful little details—tiny hands wrapped around your finger, soft baby skin, the way your body holds them like you’ve known them forever.
It’s less “say cheese” and more “you’re doing great, let’s freeze this moment in time.”
What If You Were Hoping for the Wrapped-Up Look?
Totally valid! Those posed newborn sessions with intricate wraps and set-ups are an art of their own—and I know some amazing photographers who specialize in just that. If that’s more your vibe, I’d be happy to send some referrals your way.
But if you’re looking for something more laid-back, heartfelt, and centered around your story as a growing family… I’m your girl.
