What to Expect From Your Newborn Photography Experience
A Calm, Fully Guided Experience From the Moment You Walk In
Designed With New Moms in Mind
My home studio is a dedicated, quiet space created specifically for newborn sessions. It is clean, private, and thoughtfully set up so you can feel comfortable settling in for a few hours with your baby.
Everything You Need, Already Here
From soft wraps and delicate headbands to curated props and tiny outfits, everything is provided for you. Each piece is chosen with intention to create timeless, cohesive images without you needing to bring a thing.
Comfort For Everyone
There are cozy places to sit, space to relax, snacks, drinks, and a calm environment where you can rest while I work with your baby. This time is meant to feel peaceful, not overwhelming.
A Private, Fully Equipped Newborn Photography Studio in Salem, Oregon
Walking into a newborn photography session can feel like stepping into the unknown, especially as a brand new mom. My goal is to make this feel easy, calm, and completely taken care of from the very beginning. You don’t need to know how to pose, what to bring, or feel like your baby needs to be “easy.” I gently guide you through every step so you can simply arrive and breathe.
After 13 years, I’ve seen it all, and will make sure you feel absolutely comfortable even before arriving.

ORDERING APPOINTMENT
An Expertly Guided Flow
Every session follows a clear, proven plan built from years of experience, allowing everything to move smoothly and efficiently. At the same time, I’m always reading and responding to your baby’s cues, making space for feeding, soothing, and cuddles as needed. There is no rush here.
Family and Sibling Images First
We begin with parent and sibling images at the start of your session. This allows little ones to participate and then head out with a helping adult so the rest of the session stays calm and quiet.
Time Built In for Real Life
There are cozy places to sit, space to relax, snacks, drinks, and a calm environment where you can rest while I work with your baby. This time is meant to feel peaceful, not overwhelming.
A Well-Planned Session You Can Trust
Safety & Experience at the Center of Everything
13+ Years of Hands-On Experience
With hundreds of newborns photographed over the years, I understand how to read baby cues and create a session that is both safe and beautifully consistent.
Safety Qualifications
Your baby’s safety is always my highest priority. I am a qualified newborn photographer through APNPI (Accredited Professional Newborn Photographers International) and have completed professional newborn safety training, with over 13 years of hands-on experience guiding every session. Every pose and transition is done with care, intention, and proper support, so you can feel confident your baby is in experienced, capable hands.
A Calm Presence You Can Trust
You are handing over your whole world for a few hours. I don’t take that lightly. My role is to create a space where you feel confident, seen, and completely at ease.
Ready to Begin?
If you are expecting, the best time to book your newborn session is during your second trimester to ensure availability around your due date. From there, we will plan everything together and schedule your session once your baby arrives.
