It has been so very busy at the studio lately! Between motherhood sessions, sweet newborns, and beautiful families, my spring season has been incredibly busy. Which is exactly how I like it! Today though, it’s time to take a quick break from shooting and editing to share some of my favorite photos from one of...
The weather here in Long Grove, Illinois is warming up just a little now and reminding me that spring is on the way! I’m not sure how that happened because it doesn’t feel that long ago that we were getting ready for Christmas. I had this sweet little one in my studio shortly before the...
Seven days new and absolutely perfect! I had the honor of photographing sweet baby Mailani during her newborn session a few months ago, and it was such a joy to capture these precious early moments for her family.

I was so excited to do this newborn photo session with baby Wyatt. I’ve known his family for a couple of years now and they are wonderful! I first met them when I had the joy of photographing one of Wyatt’s big sisters as a newborn. (They came back to my studio again for her...

Motherhood Sessions are now open 🤍
This is your moment to be in the frame.
Motherhood is made up of the quiet, fleeting moments—the way your little ones reach for you, the softness, the connection… and it all deserves to be remembered.
I’ve created something truly special to capture just that.
Session Dates:
Saturday, April 25
Sunday, April 26
Held in my Long Grove studio with a soft, timeless, and neutral aesthetic designed to keep the focus on you and your babies.
These sessions are perfect for:
• Moms with their children
• Expecting mamas
• Grandmothers + generational portraits
A curated collection of beautiful, neutral dresses will be available for moms, and I’ll guide you through the entire process so it feels effortless and natural.
I’m currently finishing the setup — it will be simple, soft, and angelic with creams and dreamy neutrals. I’ll be sharing a preview next week 🤍
My goal is to have your images ready in time for Mother’s Day — something meaningful you can cherish forever.

I can’t wait to create something beautiful for you 🤍
This sweet family found me through friends who had just done their newborn session with me, and after seeing their images, they fell in love with my work. They were really hoping to get on my schedule, but had one big concern… their baby was already a little older than the typical “newborn window,” and they weren’t sure if we’d still be able to achieve those soft, classic newborn poses.
I reassured them—and their little one proved us all right 💛
He was absolutely perfect… so calm, so cozy, and slept beautifully throughout the session. We were able to capture all those timeless, gently posed images they were dreaming of.
They chose my Classic Collection with pops of beautiful color, and I just loved every bit of it. This style is very reminiscent of traditional newborn photography—soft, intentional posing paired with delicate, rich tones that truly highlight baby in the most timeless way. It’s always such a joy when families choose this look.
Every session with me is fully styled and customized. I provide everything for baby, and guide you every step of the way so your experience feels effortless from start to finish.
If you’ve been thinking about newborn photos—even if your baby is a little older—please don’t hesitate to reach out. It’s almost always possible, and these early days are so worth capturing 🤍

Welcoming sweet baby Enzo 🤍
Just 12 days new at the time of his session, and already so incredibly loved. It’s always extra special when I get to see familiar faces walk back into my studio—and this beautiful family is one of them.
The big brother was so gentle, so proud, and so full of love for his baby brother… those are the moments that stay with you long after the session ends. Truly such a joy to witness and capture.
A little behind-the-scenes truth…
One of the greatest compliments I receive is when families come back to me again and again. From maternity, to newborn, to milestones and beyond—so many of my clients trust me to document each chapter as their families grow. And that means everything to me 🤍
It’s more than just photos—it’s building relationships, preserving memories, and being a small part of your story year after year.
Thank you for trusting me with your most precious moments 🫶
