Newborn Photographer in Southeastern Michigan

Newborn Sessions

The newborn stage is unlike any other season in parenthood.

It’s a time suspended between wonder and exhaustion. Where days blur into nights and everything feels both brand new and timeless. Your baby will never be this small again. Their quiet cries and soft breaths, milk-drunk smiles, curled toes, and the way their entire body fits against your chest like it was made to be there — all of it changes so quickly, almost without you noticing. These are the moments that seem ordinary now but will one day feel like a dream.

The newborn stage is raw, real, and overwhelmingly beautiful, not because it’s perfect, but because it’s yours, and it passes faster than anyone ever tells you.

Capturing it isn’t just about having pretty pictures. It’s about preserving the feeling. So when the days get long and the memories begin to fade, you’ll have something to bring you right back to the beginning.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. When Should I Schedule my Newborn Session?

It’s never too early to schedule your session to ensure you reserve time in my calendar. I will typically use your due date as a space holder when you book. When baby comes, we'll want to capture the first 5-12 days of life for those fleeting newborn details.

2. Where Will Our Session Take Place?

First we will decide if you want an in-home lifestyle session or a studio session. If you want an in-home lifestyle session, we typically use your bedroom, the nursery, and/or your family room space – really wherever the light hits best! If you decide on a studio session, we will discuss which studio space is closest to your home and which one matches your vision for your session. I have several studios I use around Metro-Detroit, Monroe and even Toledo, OH areas!


3. Can I Bundle My Maternity and Newborn Sessions?

Yes! I’d be honored to capture both milestones for you at a discounted rate. Be sure to include this in your contact form when you schedule your maternity session.

4. Have More Questions?

If you're wondering what to expect, visit the Investment page, where I offer a step-by-step peek into the process of our time together and a thorough FAQ of common client questions. Keep in mind that after you book, I'll send over my Welcome Guide and Styling Guide - Two complimentary, complete handbooks for your session. - If you have questions any step of the way, I am here to guide you!
