New Baby Photography

Welcome to the World, Baby Owen!

“I spent many sleepless nights during my pregnancy asking for referrals and searching on Facebook for a newborn photographer. I fell in love with Katie’s photographs and was so excited when I was able to lock her in for my newborn session. Once Owen arrived, I scheduled my session within the first week. She was fabulous with my son, her studio is so nice, very clean and she did not disappoint. She supplied all the props, had sound machines to calm my baby, and he was like putty in her hands. I couldn’t be happier with our photographs and can’t wait to schedule a family session later this year. I highly recommend Katie, she is very talented and I’m so glad she was able to capture my baby’s first photographs.” ~Amy

Y’all. Words like these make my heart SING!!! All the hearts. All the CAPS. ALL. THE. FEELS. I love my job; I love capturing these tiny babies. I love the challenge of newborns, capturing the tiny details and the big moments. Every little thing about it. And Owen’s session was no different. Just look at all the cuteness that we captured:

He was so sweet during his entire session. I think he whimpered maybe once near the end. Mom and dad were perfect and trusting and sat back watching the magic of the session. Mom told me she wanted earth tones, neutrals, and possibly some blues and grays. I told her she came to the right spot! The studio is completely stocked with all things neutral, classic, and earth tones galore. Mom had a blast browsing the different props and layers that are all over the studio. To say this was a perfect fit on all levels is an accurate assumption. Can’t wait to see this little guy grow in his milestones!

Welcome, Baby Lillian!

This sweet baby girl came to the studio with her very own VIP cheering section. Girl number three for this family and everyone was so, very excited to welcome this bundle of sweetness into the family. And she ROCKED her session as well! Just look at the cuteness captured in the studio:

When mom contacted me during her pregnancy, she knew she wanted to include the entire family during the newborn shoot. I steered her in the direction of the Deluxe Session, which is the most popular package and also includes photos with parents and siblings. Mom also chose to add on a maternity session which I ADORE because it gives me an opportunity to work with the entire family before the newborn session. PLUS you get even more artwork to add to your walls. This little one wanted me to capture her belly too–isn’t she adorbs?!

The family portion of the shoot is done right away so siblings can relax after their portion. Some parents drive separately so they can take brothers of sisters to the park or to get ice cream since sessions can last up to three hours. This gives them a chance to get spoiled and have some one-on-one time with a parent while the focus in the studio can be on the new baby during the photo shoot. If driving separately is not an option, I have a whole room full of toys for them to play and stay entertained.

When choosing a newborn photographer, make sure they have the training and skill to safely work with each family member with confidence and patience. I’m so blessed to have been trained with some of the best photographers in the world and continue to hone my craft with superior photographers in this business. Let me capture your life’s memories.

Meet Baby Gabby

This sweet adorable thing first came to “see” me when she was in her gorgeous mommy’s belly:

Wasn’t mom just STUNNING?! Mom contacted me early on in her pregnancy and wanted to book her maternity and newborn sessions. Since this was the first tiny nugget for this family, mom didn’t know where to start. Good thing I love my job and have a lot of experience working with parents and babies! I told her she made the first important step–contacting me right away. We scheduled her maternity shoot around 33 weeks, which is the PERFECT time. You aren’t too uncomfortable yet, plus you have a beautiful baby bump to show off. Since mom booked a Full Session, she had a few “costume” changes and really looked like a gorgeous queen in each of her images. Mom even got her gorgeous white gown (pictured above) on Amazon!

In just a few short weeks after the session, sweet Baby Gabby was born! I LOVE when people book maternity and newborn sessions as a package for a couple of reasons. For one, I am able to meet and work the parents before your bundle arrives. There’s something really special about going through that anticipation together and really building that bond and working relationship. Plus parents know what to expect for their newborn session, since they have already physically worked with me. It kind of eases any jitters beforehand.

And just look at how adorable she is! We were able to capture so many amazing images during sweet Gabby’s session.

I absolutely ADORE getting to know families and parents while they enter this new chapter of life. I will work with you from the very beginning and beyond to help your vision come to life for your sessions.
