The Portfolio
Photographs have a way of holding onto the feelings we never want to forget, the anticipation of a growing belly, the quiet awe of holding your newborn at home, and the wild, beautiful energy of early childhood.
As a newborn photographer in Salt Lake City, I approach every session with intention and care whether I’m documenting the early days of motherhood or following your child’s lead as they play and explore. I work with families across Salt Lake City, South Jordan, Draper, and surrounding areas to create portraits that feel light-filled, timeless, and deeply personal. These are the moments I want you to remember. And my hope is that years from now, when your baby is no longer little or when pregnancy feels like a distant memory, your photographs will take you right back.
Once the session is reserved on your desired date. We will start planning and talk about your vision, location and more. A client questionnaire is sent to get to know your family. With a location and inspiration in mind. Let's find the perfect outfit. Our client wardrobe is complimentary for mothers and babies. A curated collection of beautiful dresses that are perfect for every stage of motherhood.
Our time together is calm, baby-led, and guided gently from beginning to end. I’ll offer direction when needed, but mostly I’ll follow your child’s lead capturing natural, meaningful moments as they unfold. No stiff poses, just real connection and memories you’ll want to keep forever.
Each image is carefully edited by hand to reflect the warmth and beauty of your session. Within 3 weeks, you’ll receive a private online gallery where you can download your images, order custom frames or albums, and relive your memories. Every full session includes 25 beautifully printed images of your choosing something tangible to hold, share, and treasure for years.
A: Once you book, you’ll receive access to our carefully curated Client Wardrobe, filled with beautiful dresses for moms to choose from. Everything your baby needs—like swaddles, blankets, and more—is already provided at the studio or brought along for your in-home session. You’ll also get a styling guide to help partner and siblings coordinate effortlessly. All of this ensures your photos feel beautiful, timeless, and perfect for displaying in your home.
A:Newborn photos can be taken either in my cozy home studio or right in the comfort of your own home. When you book your session, we’ll go over your vision and plan every detail to make sure it feels just right for you and your family.
A: It’s best to book your newborn photography during your second or third trimester, especially if you’d like both maternity and newborn photos. Reaching out early ensures we can reserve your session and start planning something beautiful for your family.
A: Ideally, newborn sessions are done within the first 2–3 weeks after birth. That said, I follow a baby-led approach, so it’s perfectly fine if your little one is a bit older. I don’t rely on stiff or overly posed setups, so your baby doesn’t need to be deeply asleep the entire session. Even up to around 12 weeks old, we can still beautifully document this precious new season of life.
A:Yes! I am up to date on all vaccinations, including Tdap : (whooping cough) COVID-19 booster and Influenza vaccine. CPR certified and trained in newborn safety.
