Just over here trying to keep up with all the fall festivities, a kid on track out, fifty-leven family sessions, eating enough protein, AND getting my 8 hours of sleep. 😂 Y’all, the math ain’t mathin'. But, we're doing our best. So, a little reminder to please be patient with turnaround times. I KNOW you’re sooooooo excited to see your pictures, but trust me when I say I am equally as excited to close that browser tab in my brain once your gallery is delivered. 🤣😂

Thank y’all for being patient with me during the busiest (and prettiest!) time of year! 🫶

Love,
your favorite photographer friend

Oh be still my mama heart!! Newborn sessions do NOT need to be complex, hours long, and leave everyone questioning their life choices. 😂

This one was short and sweet... mainly because big and little sis were definitely over it. And I'm not going to force a situation. Once kids are done, they're DONE.

The good news? Years of photographing babies and families have taught me how to work quickly, go with the flow, and still capture the sweet stuff. 🤍

🎶 “Your little hands wrapped around my finger, and it's so quiet in the world tonight.”

I can't listen to this song without getting choked up, so I just posted the first line and spared y'all the emotional damage. 🥹🤍🤣

I am now booking newborns into January & February. I have 3 already scheduled for Jan and 2 for Feb. I usually only take 4-6 newborns a month. 👀 Don't wait to get on my calendar!

This blanket is a fan favorite for the kiddos! We can do lots of fun things and kids even forget that we're out there for pictures because they think we're just playing.. and I'm here for it.

👋 This is your reminder to get on my calendar for your 2027 newborn sooner rather than later 🫶 I mean, wouldn't you want an image like this to remember how tiny their feet were?!

Last week I got to snuggle 4 newborns. FOUR. And every single one of them was different. Some slept like little rocks. Some needed to eat. Some needed a diaper change (or 3). Some needed to be rocked and shushed for a while before they were ready to go again. And that's totally fine! I always block off 3 hours for a newborn session, even though most of my sessions end up being closer to 1–2 hours. I don't want anybody feeling like we're on the clock. If baby needs to eat, we eat. If baby needs to be changed, we change 'em. If baby needs some extra snuggles before we try again, we snuggle.But here's the part I REALLY want expecting mamas to know...

**Book your newborn session early.** Like, while you're still pregnant early. 😂

The earlier you book, the more dates I have to work with around your due date, and you are guaranteed a spot on my calendar.

I recommend doing your session within the first two weeks after birth. And I KNOW. Those first two weeks are HARD. You're tired. You're figuring out this whole newborn thing. But those first couple of weeks are also when babies tend to be the sleepiest and easiest to settle into all those sweet, squishy newborn poses.

So don't wait until baby is here to start thinking about pictures. Get on my calendar while you're pregnant, and then when baby gets here, we'll figure out the exact date.

Snuggly newborns will forever be my favorite. 🤍 I’m officially booking January & February newborn sessions! I will always tryyyyy my best to squeeze in last-minute newborn sessions when I can, the only way to guarantee your spot is to reserve your due date ahead of time. This sweet boy was just 8 days new, and he slept like a champ! He was still super curly and sleepy, which allowed us to capture all of these sweet, curled-up poses. If you wait until after baby arrives to book, there’s a good chance I may not have an opening during those first couple of week and that’s when babies are typically the sleepiest and most flexible for these poses.

So if you’re expecting a January or February baby, now is the time to get on my calendar! 🤍

An at home session, but in black and white 🤍 And, yes, by the end of the session we were 100% dancing on the kitchen table in princess plastic heels. There's no rules when Ms. Amy comes over to play (sorry, mom & dad).
