A portrait on a wall does something a phone screen never can. 🤍

Wall art is one of my favorite ways to help my clients remember. 🤍

These girls are going to grow up, walking past these portraits every single day- it’s so special for all of them and someday they’ll understand exactly why their mom did this. 🥹

There is something about the first few weeks that feels both endless and impossibly fast at the same time.

A new baby. A toddler finding her place. Two parents leaning into each other and figuring it all out. This season is so worth preserving.

This is what I mean when I say portraits are proof of how it felt.

If you have a new baby at home or one on the way, I would love to talk about documenting this season for your family.

There is something about a mother in her final weeks of pregnancy that I will never tire of photographing.

She was radiant and real and completely herself. And the light just agreed.

This is proof of how it felt.

Thanks to and for orchestrating the beauty of this session. 🤍

You are the one behind the camera.

Capturing every milestone, every messy morning, every first smile. But you are rarely in the frame.
And years from now, your children will look back and wonder where you were.

Maternity and newborn photography is not about snapshots on your phone. It is about timeless artwork that includes you, so you can remember how deeply you loved and how beautifully you showed up in this season.

If you are expecting or have a newborn at home, I walk through everything you need to know on the blog — timing, studio vs. in-home sessions, and what these portraits are really for.

The softness of their skin. The perfect curve of their tiny toes. The way they fit so completely in the palm of your hand.

Right now, they're small enough to hold with one arm. Their feet barely fill your hand. And you know, even in the middle of the sleepless nights, that this won't last.

One day, those little feet will run ahead of you. They'll outgrow your lap, your arms, the need to be carried everywhere. And you'll look back on this season with so much tenderness.

A newborn session captures the details you don't want to forget — the smallness, the sweetness, the overwhelming love you feel when you look at them. Not perfectly posed. Just honestly preserved.

If you want to remember how deeply you loved them at this size, let's create something you can hold onto forever.

Recently got back from Florida with a big realization: even after 22 years, I still don't trust my creative vision as much as I should.

I've been comparing myself to others, wondering if I should be doing things differently, creating self-doubt instead of leaning into what I love.

Comparison really is the death of creativity.

So I'm working on trusting myself more. Paying attention to what lights me up and letting that lead.

Does anyone else feel this way?

I wrote more about this in my weekly newsletter (goes out every Friday). Link in bio if you want in. 💌
