Newborn
Your baby's first year of life will go by faster than you think. One minute you are sitting in the bathroom crying from exhaustion and the next you are looking back at photos crying your "baby" is about to turn a year old (at least this was my experience).
Point being you don't get to do this stage of life over again. Of course, you could have multiple children but trust me they are all so different. Take this time to document your baby's wrinkled feet, that sweet birthmark on their back, the way they look at you when you're holding them. You don't regret documenting these moments!
It’s best to schedule your newborn session before your baby arrives—ideally during your second or early third trimester. This way, we can reserve time on my calendar around your due date.
After booking, you'll receive a detailed style guide and access to a Pinterest mood board with outfit ideas and inspiration.
These resources are designed to make the process stress-free and ensure you look and feel amazing.
Yes! If you would like to book multiple sessions please let me know and we will discuss my membership plan which offers a significant discount to session fees.
The sooner the better! My calendar fills up about three months in advance, so the sooner you reach out the more likely you will get your desired date.
To reserve your session you need to sign a contract and pay your retainer.
I’m happy to travel up to 50 miles from King George, VA, free of charge, to capture your special moments!
If your location is further away, no worries—I can still come to you. For any distance over 50 miles, there is a travel fee of $50 for each additional 25 miles.
Simply fill out my contact form, and I’ll send over my full investment guide with all the details you need!
It includes pricing, package options, and everything you need to know for your session.
To secure your session date and time, a creative session fee and a signed contract are required at the time of booking.
Once these are received, your spot is officially reserved!
All experiences include a digital gallery of your high-resolution images. For detailed pricing information and availability, please send a message via my contact page.
