I'm Steph, Philadelphia's Natural Newborn Photographer serving young families and expecting Mother's in Bucks County, the Main Line and Philadelphia areas.
These are lifestyle photos, using natural light, guided prompts and natural engagement among the people you love to create modern and unexpected portraits for your family.
My sessions are child-led as we capture the feeling of this time in a natural, organic way.
So here we are, post pregnancy, post birth and we have this quickly growing baby who is changing everyday. You are feeding, bonding, playing, teaching, bathing and sleeping with your child, day in and day out, and before you know it they are off to kindergarten and you are left wondering where all the time has gone… how this is even possible. First birthdays and family sessions are the perfect way to:
Show growth, personality and tell the story.
GET. IN. THE. PHOTOS!!!!

Maternity photos are a way to show what life has been and what you are waiting for, in a natural, intimate way. We start with lifestyle maternity photography in your home, on the porch, or around the yard. Siblings and pets are around and we are collecting slices of your life as it is. The second part of our in home maternity photo session, we show off your belly and get lots of skin on skin. This is time for woman to feel sexy, celebrated and loved by their partner.
My favorite place to shoot in Maryland- a fishing hole on The Chesapeake Bay- lies just north of Baltimore and offers a private experience for my clients. We move from the tall green reeds of the marsh, through the paths that lead to the calm bay shore. It is a perfect spot for exploring with young children, as there are birds, boats and jumping fish to be seen.
