We're so glad you're here
New Beginnings
This season is fleeting. The waiting, the tiny details, the way everything changes overnight - it deserves to be remembered in a way that feels true to you.
​
Maternity sessions can be outdoors along the seacoast, or in the privacy of your home or our studio, with simple guidance so you feel comfortable and confident.
​
Likewise, newborn sessions can take place at home or in our studio's newborn suite. These sessions are relaxed and baby-led. We allow time for feeding, soothing, and settling, capturing your family as you are in these early days: connected, a little tired, completely in love.
​
We’d love to help you document this beginning.

YOUR BABY'S STORY
BEGINS WITH YOU
Maternity Photography
We offer two maternity session options: a mini session or a full hour session, both can be customized to meet your needs.
​
Mini sessions are short and sweet, perfect if you’re looking for a few beautiful, simple images. Full hour sessions allow for more variety, multiple looks, and a more relaxed pace.
​
Whichever you choose, the focus is the same: natural, flattering images that will become the opening chapter of your baby's story.
MATERNITY
..and then along comes baby
we offer three newborn photography sessions options:
These sessions take place within the first month-ish, in your home, hospital, or birthing center. They’re unposed and documentary in style, focused on connection, moments, and all the little details you never want to forget.
$250+
A shorter, simplified studio session for families wanting a handful of beautiful images of just the baby, typically within the first 3 weeks. These are wrapped, softly posed, and designed to capture your baby in a timeless way. Includes 8 digital images. $350
Taken within the first two weeks(ish), these gently posed sessions take place in our newborn suite using soft, natural fabrics, neutral tones, and simple props. Sessions last 2+ hours, with time for feeding, soothing, and settling. Parent & sibling poses are included. $250+

The Baby Plan
The first year flies by, from tiny newborn curls to gummy smiles, wobbly sitter milestones, and that big one-year celebration.
Our Baby’s First Year Plan is designed to capture it all beautifully and simply.
​
This plan allows you to reserve your baby’s milestone sessions in advance so you never miss a stage.
You can begin with maternity or start at newborn, either way, we will document your growing family throughout the year and finish with a full one-year session.
