Maternity and newborn sessions are about preserving a season of your life
These sessions are about noticing the small moments that are easy to overlook when everything feels new and overwhelming.
The way you rest your hand on your stomach without thinking about it. The way your body feels different every week, sometimes every day. The quiet moments where you’re excited and nervous at the same time, wondering what this next version of your life will look like.
These early days move slowly and quickly all at once. Some days feel long and heavy, and others disappear before you’ve had a chance to catch your breath. Even when you’re tired, sore, emotional, or unsure, this is still a season worth remembering exactly as it is.
That’s what these sessions are for.

Newborn sessions are slow and flexible, shaped entirely around your baby and what they need in that moment.
We pause to feed, change diapers, soothe, and reset as often as necessary. There’s no pressure to keep things moving or to “get through” a list of shots.
I focus on the things you’ll miss later, like the way your baby fits against your chest, the way their fingers curl around yours, the tiny stretch and sigh when they finally drift off.
Newborn sessions can take place in your home or in a studio.
Maternity sessions are guided and intentional, with the goal of helping you feel comfortable in your body without having to think about how you look.
I’ll help with positioning, movement, and angles so you don’t have to overanalyze where to stand or how to pose.
Sessions move at an easy pace, with room to pause, adjust, and breathe when you need to.
You don’t have to show up feeling a certain way, or pretend to love every part of this season. You’re allowed to feel excited, tired, emotional, grounded, unsure… sometimes all of that within the same session.
We have loved our sessions with Summer
"We did our maternity and newborn sessions with her and loved every photo she took. She has such a great eye for capture those special moments and details, she also makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We can’t wait for many years of her capturing our family!"
- Sara G.
