Stop waiting. Every day you don’t book, your newborn is already changing without you capturing it.

This stage isn’t slow, it’s disappearing, fast. And once it’s gone, there’s no recreating it.

Let’s be real:
👉🏼“I’ll do it later” usually turns into never
👉🏼You will regret not having these photos
👉🏼Your baby will never be this tiny again….Ever

Book the session. Stop hesitating.

You’re going to regret not having photos like this.

Not the perfectly posed, smile-for-the-camera ones.

But this…
the way they reach for you without thinking
the way their hands already know your baby

Because one day, this version of you disappears. The waiting. The anticipation. The way your body holds both love and life at the same time.

People don’t realize how much this matters… until it’s over. It’s not just a maternity session.
It’s the only way to hold onto a moment you’ll never get back.

On one hand it makes life a lot easier. I feel like I run out of things to say. On the other hand, it doesn’t feel authentic and that’s something I run my business on.

I feel like I can spot them right away. But what do you say when you’ve been doing the same thing for 12 years?

I have the best job in the world, hands down!But how many more ways can I express that? Can’t the adorable pictures do the talking? After all, they’re worth a thousand words, right?

I’m not going to lie, I was a little taken aback when I had to come up with a plan B on the fly b/c this beautiful girl’s dresses weren’t going to work in my usual set up with my go-to poses. However, with some quick thinking and quick shuffling of EVERYTHING in the studio, we pulled off a stunning session!

I always encouraged potential clients to visit my website and IG to get a good idea of what their session will look like. I welcome inspirational pictures if they have a specific idea in mind. I do these things because I know I may not be the best fit for everyone. And I’m ok with that! I want you to have the pictures that YOU dream of and I’m not shy to tell you if I don’t think I’m the right photographer for the vision.

Even still, I sometimes get surprised when sessions are already booked and clients show up with inspirational images that are nothing like what I do. This was one of those times. I wasn’t about to let her walk away disappointed though. And to be honest, I’m glad I rose to the challenge. I love the way her session turned out!
