There’s something uniquely beautiful about photographing twin newborns.

As I was editing my most recent newborn photoshoot today, I was presented with a fb memory of the very first newborn I ever photographed.
I had no clue what I was doing 13 years ago. I just knew I wanted to photograph babies. My neighbor was willing to be my guinea pig. At the time, I was happy with how they turned out. However, it was hard and I quickly realized I needed help. I tried my hand at it a few more times before biting the bullet and attending a newborn workshop.
My work has evolved and changed quite a bit over the last several years. In fact, I rarely do traditional “beanbag/blanket” poses anymore but every now and then I will incorporate them.
It’s so fun to see the comparison of how my work looked when I first started vs how it looks today!

I don’t just take photos.
I preserve beginnings.
My work is intentional, emotional.
For parents who want more than a snapshot.
For those who understand that these images will only grow in value with time.
I document the newborn days that pass too quickly,
the moments that feel small now but become everything later.
This is what I do.
And I do it with purpose.

5 things you will feel during a maternity session with me 🤍
1. Safe — held in a space where nothing is expected of you except to be.
2. Seen — not posed or perfected, but truly noticed.
3. Powerful — because creating life is the strongest thing your body will ever do.
4. Soft — allowed to slow down, breathe, and melt into this season.
5. Connected — to your baby, to your body, to the version of you that’s being born too.
This isn’t about photos that impress.
It’s about images that feel like you.
