Questions? We have answers.

You should consider booking your session the minute you know you’d like a newborn photography session.

Within a day or two or your newborn photos, we’ll send over some tips & tricks to help prepare your newborn and your home for a successful newborn photo shoot.

We love neutrals and simple patterns for a newborn photoshoot to keep the focus the love you share as a family.

Newborn safety is my first priority. I know first hand just how precious and delicate a baby is. As a new mom, keeping your little one safe is at the forefront of your mind. Since opening my baby and family photography businessI have invested a great deal of time in understanding newborn safety when it comes to posing and handling. This includes participating in newborn workshops, 1:1 mentor training and being a member of PPA. I am also CPR and first aid certified. As a former nanny and early childhood graduate, I am extremely comfortable handling newborns and babies. My clients call me the  “baby whisperer” as I am often found comforting and soothing their little one during the session.

My newborn photography studio is based in Newtown, PA in Bucks County since 2015!

Pet’s and grandparents are always welcome and encourage to pop into a photo with their newest family member.
