Maternity, Newborn, & Family Photographer

an honest & raw take on pregnancy, birth, postpartum, & beyond

serving washington dc, & northern virginia

Whether it be a celebration of your pregnancy, your postpartum body, your growing family, or your transformative birth experience, my goal is to turn those beautiful, authentic (and let’s face it…sometimes chaotic) moments into art for you and your family to treasure for generations to come.  

Let's tell your story.

Next Steps

01.

Complimentary Phone or Zoom Consultation

During this consultation, we’ll just get to know each other a bit & chat about the process, your vision for your session, & next steps.

02.

Let’s Make it Official!

I will send over your contract & proposal.  Once I receive your retainer, your session will be officially on the calendar.

03.

Session Day

Sessions are generally up to 90 minutes with up to three outfit changes + fine art nude or skin-to-skin set.  I do offer some posing guidance but also encourage you to move freely once you get comfortable (I promise, you will!)  There will be a good mix of posed, candids, & detail images in your final gallery for you to choose from!

04.

Gallery Reveal

A few weeks after your session, we’ll have a gallery reveal over Zoom! You can make all of your selections during this time.  Any digitals purchased will be sent to you via digital download.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far in advance should I book my maternity or newborn session? 

I generally book 6-8 weeks out, though sometimes I have some last minute openings. For maternity sessions, I recommend scheduling your session between 28-32 weeks. Newborn sessions are generally done when baby is less than 2 weeks old. Reach out here to inquire! 

Why should I choose you instead of another maternity, newborn, or family photographer? 

There are tons of amazing artists to choose from so it ultimately comes down to your style and preferences.  If you love a more moody & fine art vibe, plus you love the nostalgia of film photography, then we will have an awesome time together! 

How much should I budget for my session? 

Session fees start at $295. Products are in addition to the session fee & begin at $700. Clients spend $1200+ on average. Check out the pricing page for more information

Where will my session take place? 

We can plan the session at a location of your choice – including your home, an outdoor location, or a styled home rental/studio near you.  A travel or rental fee may apply for alternate locations.  Check out my preferred locations
