Newborns

The birth of your child will be one of the most emotional and momentous occasions of your life. Unfortunately, adrenaline and excitement cloud your memory. If you are looking for authentic, vibrant, and timeless images that capture the heart and soul, then you’re in the right place. Specializing in lifestyle photography (combination of photo journalism and fine art portraiture), my style is modern yet timeless, classically clean, emotionally charged, and full of life. I prefer to capture authentic moments as the naturally happen, but also help set the scene if you prefer more guidance.

The candid moments, a heartfelt laugh, a warm gentle embrace. The intimate expressions, the tiny details, moments that will never happen again. The smell of your baby’s hair. A reaction, personalities, relationships. With each image I hope your heart swells with the same raw emotions you experienced the day your child was born.

I love using as much available light as possible. I try to be unobtrusive giving you room to express yourselves, although I give direction during your session so you look your best. Follow me as I bring your story to life through custom photography and give you a tangible keepsake to remember this day for years to come.
