Natural. Simple. Sweet.
Organic portraiture lends itself to focusing on the love and deep connections between you and your family. With the absence of typical “props” and other distractions (bright colors and patterns), the intimate moments between you and your loved ones are better able to be seen in a timeless and pure way.

Studio Maternity Session
The best time to have your maternity portrait session is during weeks 30-38 of your pregnancy. Immediate family members, including partners and children, are welcome for Signature Maternity Sessions.
Studio Newborn Session
A portion of this session will be reserved for a “lifestyle” setting where your family can interact with your newest addition right in your arms. The rest of the session is baby alone, snuggled on my soft, white blanketed beanbag. My newborn style of photography, just like the rest of my studio photography, is natural, simple, and sweet.We don’t use any props or any other distracting colors. We practice “baby-led posing,” and take more of a natural approach to follow his/her lead; therefore, the focus will be on your baby, just as they are at that moment in time.
Studio Milestone Sessions
Mom & Dad are welcome for all studio milestone sessions in order to capture the bond you share. Cake Smash Sessions are also available in the studio.This session is sure to be a beautiful portrayal of your little one, focusing mostly on him/her with a simple white cake decorated in white frosting. You will have the option of choosing from 3 beautifully simple cake designs. Cake is complimentary. *Studio milestone sessions do not include siblings.
THE LIFESTYLE SESSION
Located at Your Home

The Lifestyle Session is a perfect way to tell your family’s story. This is also best for larger families or families who have older siblings that would be more comfortable having portraits taken in their familiar surroundings. Lifestyle Sessions work best in homes with a decent amount of natural light streaming in through at least one room in your home.Most families choose a newly decorated nursery, the living room, or Mom & Dad’s bedroom. Each type of session includes access to the studio wardrobe for mommas and babies up to size 3T and optional hair and makeup for Mom. *All immediate family members are welcome for lifestyle sessions. **The best time to have your maternity portrait session is during weeks 30-38 of your pregnancy. The ideal time to have your newborn session is when baby is 5 to 14 days old.
THE FIELD SESSION
