A few tears at the beginning, and then pure sweetness. šŸ’•

Three-week-old Eleanor wasn’t quite sure about this when she first arrived at the studio today. But once she was wrapped up cozy and secure, she settled right in and showed us exactly why I love photographing newborns.

Not only did she give us this peaceful little pose in our heart prop, but she also treated us to some beautiful eye contact and even a few smiles later in the session. 🄹

As the baby sister to two big brothers, she is already so loved, and I can’t wait for Mom and Dad and Grandma to see the rest of their gallery.

Welcome to the world, sweet Eleanor. šŸ’•

Two-year-olds are truly the boss of their own little world…
and we’re all just along for the adventure. šŸ¤Ž

Sweet Eliana is turning 2! Shekept us on our toes during her ā€œBorn Two Be Wildā€ birthday session, and honestly? We loved every second of it. The giggles, the curiosity, the tiny moments in between — this age is wild, busy, emotional, hilarious, and absolutely worth documenting.

These are the moments parents never want to forget!

One day they struggle through tummy time… and the next they’re holding themselves up looking at you like this. 🄹 Mama was SO proud.

This sweet boy has grown so very much since his newborn session!! Just look at those chunky cheeks!!!

The tummy time stage is one of my favorite ages to photograph because babies start making eye contact, showing personality, and giving us those sweet little expressions while still looking so tiny. šŸ’™

Our 3–4 month milestone sessions are perfect for documenting:
• tummy time milestones
• smiles + personality
• sleepy wrapped poses if baby gets tired
• all those little details that change so quickly

The sweetest part? His mama loved documenting these milestones so much with her first baby girl that she joined our Baby Plan all over again for baby #2 so she could experience all of these moments again. 🄹

These babies grow and change so fast. If your little one is nearing the tummy time stage, now is the perfect time to plan their milestone session.

13 days new, and already stealing the show.

Sweet D’Angelo came into the studio today with the most incredible hair and those chubby cheeks that you just can’t get enough of. While he was perfectly content through his individual portraits, mom got to enjoy a little pampering with professional in-studio hair and makeup—such a special (and well-deserved) part of the experience.

And dad… you could just feel it. The quiet kind of love. Staying close, watching every little movement, completely in awe of his baby boy. Those moments always get me.

We moved into family portraits, and everything just flowed. D’Angelo was an absolute dream at only 13 days old—calm, cozy, and right where he was meant to be.

This is why I love what I do. Capturing these first days… exactly as they feel.

Tiny details make the magic. ✨
Every wrap, every tie, every gentle adjustment is done with care—because your baby’s comfort always comes first.

This is what goes into creating those soft, timeless newborn portraits you’ll treasure forever. šŸ¤

Watching this sweet boy grow this past year has truly felt like watching family. šŸ¤
From newborn snuggles to this big milestone… it goes so fast.

Nicholas came in for his Hole in One cake smash, and while this smile says it all… behind the scenes looked a little different.
He wasn’t feeling his best (we found out later—double ear infection 😢), so this session was all about patience, cuddles, and letting him lead the way.

That’s what made it special.

He wanted his parents close, needed breaks, and the cake wasn’t the highlight this time…
the comfort and connection were.

Mom chose this theme from his birthday party, and I’m still so proud of how it all came together— balloon garlands are always a battle.

This is what these sessions really are…
Not perfection. Not posing.

Moments. Personality. Your baby, exactly as they are right now.

From first snuggles to those tiny stretches… every little moment captured very intentionally.

Mom chose our Album Collection for this sweet baby’s session, and it just arrived — and oh my goodness… it is absolutely gorgeous. I cannot wait for her to see her baby’s story come to life in print. šŸ¤

This is exactly why I guide my clients toward printed artwork — because these moments deserve more than being tucked away on a phone. An album lets you hold it, revisit it, and share it for years to come.
