My primary goal when capturing your baby's first weeks of life is ALWAYS safety! Too often I see photographers wanting to "practice" newborns or have "model calls" and while these are usually discounted sessions and can save you some money initially there are risks involved. The cute Pinterest poses that you find for inspiration for your baby's session can be dangerous if not done by someone properly trained.
I know that everyone has a budget and am not naive that the investment for my Newborn sessions can be more than some had in mind. So I offer full service sessions designed together with you and what you have in mind for your little one's session. I am Certified in Newborn Safety and Safe Posing so I know how to properly execute the posing of baby SAFELY to prevent any injuries to baby. I have a stocked studio of wraps, baskets, accessories, backdrops, head pieces and props so all you have to do is show up! I will take care of the rest! I have specially designed packages to accommodate most budgets so you don't have to sacrifice safety for your little one. It can be very nerve wrecking to give your brand new fragile, precious baby to someone and not have complete confidence in their abilities. I am very supportive of Model Calls and discounted sessions of ANY other type of photography but Newborn Photographers should be properly trained and insured before attempting posed Newborn Photography. I am here to ensure your confidence in me when hiring me to handle your precious cargo and among the years of experience I am also trained, certified and insure to provide only the best skills and quality safe practices during your session.
As you might have read on other pages of this website, I am also a Doula and have assisted MANY women in welcoming their babies in to the world. My passion in this industry is focused on the Woman and the incredible things she is capable of in pregnancy, labor, delivery, birth, and beyond. This includes the new little life you have created and I would be very honored to capture the first days of your Childs life to create beautiful memories that will last a lifetime!
