The snuggles, the sleepy stretches, the way your newborn baby fits so perfectly into your arms...As a mom of two little girls, I know all too well that our babies don't stay little for very long.

As your Austin Newborn Photographer, my goal is to craft images that will let you hold onto those precious memories, even as they grow. I want your newborn photos to be more than just pretty images on your screen. 

Together we'll create something that lasts - timeless heirlooms you will be proud to pass on from one generation to the next.

Your Heart Already Knows Every Detail

You've imagined this haven for so long. Maybe you've spent countless nights on Pinterest, saving inspiration for the perfect nursery.

Each detail carefully chosen, each element meaningful. A cozy nursery, thoughtfully prepared with all the little touches that make it feel like home.

Over the crib hangs a beautiful frame with the very first memories of a love so deep it's hard to put into words.
This is more than decor – it's your story, waiting to be told.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I book a newborn session?

I recommend reaching out in your second trimester to ensure availability. We'll use your due date as a placeholder. Simply let me know when your baby arrives and we'll lock in a date. I only take a limited number of sessions per month to allow for plenty of flexibility.

How old should my baby be for a newborn session?

Ideally, your baby should be 7 to 14 days old at the time of the newborn session. However, I will schedule newborn sessions through up to 4 weeks old. Babies grow so incredibly fast, and that first month of life will be best to capture all their tiny features. 

Are newborn photos safe?

As a newborn photographer, your baby's comfort and safety is my number one priority. With my lifestyle newborn sessions, I only perform baby-led, safe poses. For this reason, I may advise against certain poses that could compromise your baby's safety. 

what should we wear for newborn photos?

We'll use our design consultation to discuss your vision and my outfit recommendations. Additionally, I provide all my clients with a complimentary style guide with plenty of tips and outfit inspiration for you, baby, and every member of the family.

Do you bring props to the newborn session?

As a lifestyle newborn photographer, I utilize the natural elements already present in your home to create authentic images. Props are very minimal and limited to a simple Moses basket, swaddles, and baby bows - upon request.

How long does a newborn session take?

Although I do not time my newborn sessions - to allow for enough flexibility - you can typically expect your session to last anywhere from 1.5 hours to 2 hours. 

Are parents and siblings included in the photos?

Absolutely! In fact, I also love to incorporate other close family members, such as grandparents.

can we purchase all the digitals?

Yes! All of my collections include your full gallery of high-resolution digital files from your session.

Do you offer printed products?

I do! I offer collections that are completely customizable to your needs. Because I would hate for my clients' images to be lost on the cloud, I offer multiple custom artwork options including albums, wall art, and matted prints so you can enjoy your photos to the fullest. 

Your Baby's Story. From Tiny toes to running feet.
