We understand that it's challenging to travel in the first weeks after baby arrives, so we offer Signature and Luxe Newborn Sessions in the comfort of your home. We'll bring along studio lighting, space heater, blankets, knit wraps and accessories to set up a "studio" in your bedroom. We can use a bare wall as a seamless backdrop for intimate family portraits, and/or incorporate meaningful settings within your home for added variety. Especially perfect for clients with sweet little nurseries that are camera ready.

EDITING

EDITING

Your portrait session is only the start of creating your custom artwork. We carefully curate the best images from your session based on lighting, background, focus, pose, facial expressions, and overall appeal. One week after your session, you'll select your favorite images for editing. We pride ourselves on providing finished works of art. Unedited images are not provided. You are always welcome to order additional digital portraits from your proofing gallery.

Once you've finalized your favorites, we will artistically enhance each image in our signature style. As you’ll see in our Before & After Gallery, each image is tastefully edited into a unique work of art. For every minute we spend together, we spend hundreds more behind the scenes to make your final photos and overall experience truly exceptional.

IT'S ALL ABOUT EXPERIENCE

photographing newborns

Our team of photographers—possessing over fifteen years of experience—has cultivated a safe and comfortable environment for newborn photography. Utilizing established and proven posing techniques, we aim to capture these precious early moments while your baby is peacefully asleep. The safe handling and posing of infants is of paramount importance to our practice. We are cognizant of potential strain on a newborn's back, neck, and arms, and therefore avoid any poses that could compromise their well-being. Furthermore, we are committed to educating our clients on the critical importance of proper head support and other safety considerations for their child's comfort and security. For comprehensive information regarding newborn safety, we direct you to the Newborn Photographers International website. When selecting a newborn photographer, we strongly advise prioritizing experience and professional expertise over cost considerations.

your baby's

COMFORT & SAFETY

To provide a safe and hygienic environment, we only use hypo-allergenic blankets and accessories, which are sanitized after every use. To help keep your baby comfortable, we utilize pillow stuffings for a solid fit. Our portable heater and sleep machine provide a soothing atmosphere which encourages a natural, deep sleep.

EASY ON THEIR EYES

Our lighting equipment utilizes a low-power flash with an extremely short duration of 1/63,000th of a second. This minimal flash is virtually imperceptible to the human eye and—with a power output less than that of natural daylight—will not disturb your infant. These are just some of the many techniques we've developed over the years that provide a safe and comfortable environment for your infant.

 

Once your baby is peacefully asleep, we can dedicate our expertise to capturing truly exceptional newborn portraits .

your digital portraits

All Portrait Sessions include a select number of artistically edited images in high resolution. As professional newborn photographers , we take great pride in our craft. We do not release RAW unedited images, since they are not a finished product. You're always welcome to purchase additional digital portraits to download, share and print to your heart's content!

every newborn baby is

A TINY WORK OF ART

As your children grow in the blink of an eye, this is your chance to embrace the special moments that will bring you joy and lasting memories. We've been photographing newborn babies for over a decade, and we have the patience and expertise needed to safely pose and photograph your little bundle of joy. Our photos showcase the sweet angelic features, adorable facial expressions, and tiny nuances of your little one. We'll also capture some intimate family portraits to celebrate your new addition. Newborn portrait sessions aren't just about photos – they're about capturing the love, connection, and tiny details of your baby's first days. We look forward to creating one-of-a-kind works of art for your growing family!

DISPLAYING

your artwork

We strive to provide a luxury experience from start to finish. Within weeks of your photoshoot, you'll be able to download your artistically edited portraits in high resolution and order custom artwork. We're always happy to accommodate a shorter timeframe if you need your portraits ready in time for a special occasion. We offer a curated collection of Fine Art Prints, Gallery Wraps, Floating Metal Art, Velvet Folios and Keepsake Albums.

You’re welcome to share snapshots of your wall space and home decor, so we can design a beautiful presentation of your most special memories.

Keepsake Albums

Breathtakingly beautiful, our albums will find themselves passed down from generation to generation. Each handcrafted Album is custom designed to tell the story of your family’s most special memories. Children love browsing through these Albums, and guests can’t get enough of them. Thick, lay-flat pages are finished with rounded corners to create a seamless look that will stand the test of time. Covers are vibrant and durable, printed on polished, high-gloss aluminum. Each Album is created with the same love and attention to detail that goes into the newborn and maternity photos that we create.
