Newborn photography with an emphasis on safety
Creating beautiful, timeless, & safe portraits of your newborn baby is my passion. I have been trained by some of the most highly regarded newborn Photographers in the world, and I am a huge advocate and leader for newborn safety in the Tampa Bay Area.
I have 13 years of experience working with newborns and making sure that I practice safe posing. 10 of those years, I have specialized as a newborn photographer. Many photographers travel from all over the world to be taught the art of newborn photography by me. Growing a community of sound, highly trained newborn photographers to keep babies all over the world safe, is my passion. When focusing on posed newborn portraits, it's important that the photographer you choose knows about keeping your baby safe during the session. I do work with an assistant to make sure your baby is always taken care of. She is there to make sure the baby is safe while getting those beautiful portraits that you have fallen in love with.
I typically like to have babies in within the first 14 days of life, however, I do often photograph babies up to 6 weeks. Newborn photography requires a lot of patience and I fully believe in letting your baby lead the way. If you're looking for a professional newborn photographer near you, we can definitely help!
1.
Scheduling your newborn session
When to schedule and when the session takes place
I recommend reaching out to book when you reach your second trimester. We typically have newborns in between 7-14 days after birth to achieve those super snuggly poses.
If time got away from you, don't worry. Still reach out an i'll see if we can possibly squeeze you in. I believe everyone deserves having these precious memeories for years to come.

The birth of a child marks a defining moment in your life.
From this day forward, everything changes.
You have a new reason for living.
You have a new reason to love.
And just weeks from now, your little one
will no longer fit so tiny in your arms.
They are only this little for just a moment in time.
These are your moments…
with a newborn portrait session, you can hold on to them forever.
I would be so honored to photograph and celebrate your newborn with you. Contact me so we can work together to create beautiful portraits and fine art that you can enjoy for years and years to come.
I always recommend having your newborn pictures when the baby is between 7-14 days old.
Although that time is ideal, I completely understand that emergencies arise, and it is not something that is required, but it is the perfect time for a baby to be sleepy which creates a better chance of getting those sleepy, curly poses that we all love.
If you are in the Tampa Bay area and are expecting, or have just had your baby, call me to chat about how I can help you capture these ever-so-fleeting moments!
Newborn sessions typically book up pretty quickly, so I always recommend inquiring if I have any last-minute spots. If I cannot accommodate your due date, I also know plenty of amazing newborn Photographers in the Tampa Bay Area that may be able to help!
