Sweet baby George was just 10 days new when he came to the studio for his Vernon Hills newborn session, and oh my heart… he is absolutely perfect. It was a special joy to photograph him because I already knew the family, having been the newborn photographer for their daughter just a couple of years...
It was such a pleasure to work with this sweet family during a studio lifestyle session for their new baby daughter Clara. Mom was referred to me by a friend whom I worked with for many years and photographed her three kiddos. They live in Itasca, Illinois, so only about 20 minutes from my studio...
Sweet baby Penelope was my first newborn session of 2025—and I couldn’t have asked for a better start to the year! She was sweet, sleepy, and oh so beautiful! Mom found me when she searched “newborn photography near me”…almost a year ago! At the time, she and her husband lived a bit further away. But...
This sweet Buffalo Grove newborn photo session with baby Bennett and his parents was so perfect! Mom was referred to me by her best friend who had done a maternity session with me and loved it. This mama decided she also wanted to do a maternity shoot before it was time for newborn photos, so...
I love everything about this sweet mom and baby session! Mom lives in Chicago and found me when she was searching for newborn photographers on Instagram.

Welcoming a new baby is one of the most beautiful and fleeting seasons of life 🤍 Those tiny fingers, soft curls, and sleepy stretches change so quickly — which is why newborn sessions are best captured within the first 1–3 weeks after birth.
When you book a newborn session with me, everything is thoughtfully prepared for you. I offer a variety of styles and aesthetics, so every family can have images that truly reflect their vision — whether you love soft and minimal, timeless neutrals, or something a little more styled.
My studio is fully stocked with beautiful wraps, blankets, props, and delicate details for your baby, and I also provide gorgeous gowns for moms so you don’t have to worry about what to wear.
The goal is simple: a relaxed, stress-free experience.
All you have to do is arrive, settle in, and enjoy the moment while I gently guide the entire session and take care of every detail.
If you’re expecting and thinking about newborn photos, it’s best to reserve your due date in advance so I can plan for your little one’s arrival.
I can’t wait to document these first precious days for your family 🤍

Your baby’s first year goes by in the blink of an eye. One moment you’re holding a tiny newborn in your arms, and before you know it, they’re turning ONE.
A first birthday milestone session is such a beautiful way to celebrate everything that happened in that first year — the growth, the personality, the little smiles, the curious expressions, and all the moments that made this year so special.
Many parents choose to schedule a one-year session not just to mark the birthday, but to freeze this fleeting stage. Those tiny hands, wobbly steps, and joyful giggles deserve to be remembered long after the candles are blown out.
These sessions are simple, joyful, and focused on your little one — capturing the sweetness of who they are right now before they grow into the next chapter.
Because the first year is unforgettable… and these memories deserve to last forever
