Welcoming a new baby into the world is one of life’s most tender, fleeting moments — and it deserves to be remembered with care, intention, and love. As a mother of four and a proud grandma, I understand how delicate these early days are. My studio is a calming, baby-led environment where your little one’s comfort and safety always come first.

With over 20 years of experience behind the camera, I bring both technical skill and maternal instinct to every session. From sleepy snuggles to wide-eyed wonder, I gently guide each pose and moment to create timeless portraits you’ll treasure forever.

You’re not just hiring a photographer — you’re choosing someone who treats your baby like family.

If you feel like we might be a perfect match, let’s take the next step together. During our consultation call, we’ll talk about your vision, go over your session goals, scheduling, and pricing — and make sure I am the perfect fit to capture your little one’s first days with care, comfort, and timeless beauty.

Your baby’s first days are fleeting, and I’d be honored to help you preserve them with grace and intention.

And while the years may pass in the blink of an eye, it’s the little milestones that leave the biggest marks on our hearts. Whether it’s the first time your baby sits up on their own, a joyful cake smash to celebrate a birthday, or even the tender moment of a first haircut or the gap from a missing tooth—these moments matter. Each one tells a chapter of your child’s story, and they deserve to be preserved with the same care and artistry as any grand occasion. My milestone sessions are designed to celebrate both the everyday and the unforgettable, with timeless portraits that reflect the wonder of childhood in all its stages. Because around here, we believe every moment worth remembering is worth capturing beautifully.
