Newborn Sessions

Capturing the softness of your baby’s first days.

Because it's just a brief moment 

I love newborn sessions. They’re gentle, slow, and full of those fleeting moments you’ll want to hold onto forever.

I photograph newborns not just for how they look, but for how it felt to hold them close, to breathe them in, to fall into a rhythm with this brand new life.You don’t need a Pinterest-perfect nursery or worry about your hairdo. You just need to show up exactly as you are. That’s the magic.

 Kat was incredibly sweet, caring, and thoughtful with our whole family. The whole session was super relaxed and enjoyable, even with being only two days in with our newborn. My older boys were included and Kat
made them feel like the most special big brothers around.
