This sweet family has been with me for years now. They first found me when they were looking for a newborn photographer for their baby boy (who is now the best big brother) and we’ve done several sessions since that time, including an newborn session for their daughter, Paityn. I could hardly believe it had...
Welcome to the world, baby James! This sweet boy decided to surprise everyone by arriving 8 weeks early, just a few days after we captured his parents’ maternity session. After spending many weeks in the NICU, James was finally able to come home in December. I’m happy to report that he is doing wonderfully! He...
Another beautiful Chicago baby photography session with this little sweetheart. I have been photographing Riley since she was a newborn and she is a delight every time! Mom purchased my One Year of Memories collection which includes a session every three months through baby’s first year. It has been so fun to watch Riley grow...
I have been photographing this sweet little man ever since he was tiny. I can’t believe how much he’s grown!

The greatest compliment is when clients return 🫶
This sweet little one was the third baby I’ve photographed for this family. At just 11 days old, she was absolutely perfect, and it was so special to welcome them back into the studio.
I recommend booking your newborn session while you’re still pregnant so I can reserve space around your due date. Once your baby arrives, we’ll choose the exact session date, with sessions ideally taking place within the first 1–3 weeks.
I provide everything for the session, including newborn outfits, wraps, bonnets, headbands, props, and dresses for mom, so you can simply arrive and enjoy this time with your new baby.
I’m currently scheduling newborn sessions through April 2027. If you’re expecting, now is the perfect time to reserve your spot.
Inquire to begin planning your newborn session. Link in bio

A little studio update
First, if you’ve emailed me and haven’t heard back yet, I promise I’m working through my inbox and you’ll be hearing from me soon. Thank you so much for your patience.
This season has been much busier than I anticipated, and while I’m incredibly grateful for all of the wonderful clients who continue to choose me for their photography, there is a lot happening behind the scenes to keep everything moving.
As a one-person business, everything from start to finish is done by me. Every session is photographed by me, every image is hand-edited by me, every gallery is prepared and delivered by me, and all of the emails, scheduling, planning, ordering, studio preparation, and everything in between is handled by me. I don’t outsource any part of the process.
It’s important to me that every image receives my personal attention, and I’m so grateful for your patience while I keep up with a very full season.
A quick gallery update
My current turnaround time is 3 weeks from your session date, and I am delivering galleries at that three-week mark.
If you’re still within your three-week window, your gallery is in my editing queue and will be delivered at the three-week mark, so there’s no need to check in before then.
If your three weeks have passed and you still haven’t received your gallery, please reach out. With everything going on, I’ve unfortunately had a few galleries that I uploaded and then forgot to send the delivery email. My apologies for that!
And finally, thank you for your patience, your understanding, and for continuing to support my work. I appreciate each and every one of you and this little business more than you know.
And speaking of beautiful work…
I’m still completely obsessed with every single image from this maternity session. It was absolutely breathtaking from beginning to end. And what made it even more special?
There are two babies in that beautiful belly 🫶

Simple, elegant, and completely timeless
this recent studio maternity session was styled with beautiful pieces from my client closet and soft, neutral tones that let the focus stay exactly where it belongs: on mama and the beauty of this season.
