The newborn photography window will change depending on who you ask. For the type of work I do, the first 6 weeks of life, to me, are considered newborn.  Here is what to expect during the three phases of this time period:

Lifestyle photography leans more towards unposed, real reflections of your everyday life, captured in an artful way.  Our goal is to shine light and feeling on the life you are living now, moving away from posed and prompted smiles.

Welcoming a newborn baby and having a toddler to care for is a lot! That is why having your newborn photos taken in your own home is the way to go. No bags to pack, no nap times disrupted, snacks and stuffies on hand.

This Mother was a little unsure of hiring a professional newborn photographer to come to her home, but she was sooooo happy she said yes! This sweet baby has changed so much over the past few months that his newborn photos are now a memory to be relived.

The Motherhood Experience is a two part photography package. We first photograph your life as an expecting mother- a maternity session to remember this time that has been for so long. Whether it is arrival of your first baby, or your fourth, each milestone is to be honored before you shift into the new.

There is a natural magic that unfolds when photographing inside your own home. For newborns, this is where they first travel to, where they rest and eat and cry and look around with wonderment. For new parents, this is where they figure it all out-

Our time together should be enjoyable, your children should have fun, your partner should think “that wasn’t so bad…” We want feel-good feelings attached to this experience so the images can bring warmth and smiles.

You might have heard “it’s all about the lighting” or something along those lines when people talk Photography Shop. Truth is, lighting is everything. Circa 2017 I believed I could Photoshop my way out of any situation and all I had to do was take a photograph. That could not be further from the truth. […]

We want to capture you, in your life, with your people, among your travel trinkets and thoughtful fixtures. Though there is beauty in the grand and magnificent, there is also beauty in the simple and real. You are magical in your own right, doing the things that are soooo important when it comes to raising children and building a family.

When families choose The Motherhood Experience, it gives me the time and space to create a story, a cohesive flow. I want the images to feel connected and feel like they belong with each other. In-home photography is the best way to thread these two chapters together. This is the space where your family grows and lives each day.
