Let's chat! Send me a message via my Contact Form and let me me know what type of session you're looking for!
I will ask a few questions to get an idea of what you are looking for and see how I can best serve your growing family.
I recommend reaching out to your chosen newborn photographer as early as possible! During your second trimester is a perfect time to get on the schedule for newborn photos.
1. say hi!
I will send over all of my collections that clients absolutely love, and you will choose which one best fits your needs!
We will place your due date as a placeholder and schedule your newborn session within the first two weeks of baby's birth.
Once all the details are worked out, I will send over a contract and invoice. Once that retainer is paid, you are officially booked!
2. SCHEDULE IT
Planning for your session could seem stressful, but with me it doesn't have to be! I will send over a session guide to take the pressure off of you! It covers everything you can think of - clothes, shoes, behavior, glasses - it's meant to keep you stress free so you can enjoy your session!
You can ask questions along the way! I am here to help!
3. planning it
Picture day is here! It's time to snuggle your baby and sit back, relax, and let me work my magic.
I will guide you through your photo session, but baby is truly the boss. I will follow their lead as I work through the session to capture beautiful, timeless newborn photos.
4. your session
When your session is complete, go home & rest! Please allow 1 week for a proof gallery and 1-2 weeks for your final gallery. I hand edit each photo myself, and I, of course, want to ensure they are perfect for you!
Your photos are sent in an online gallery where you can choose your favorites for digital download, and if you receive an album in your package, we will work together to design a beautiful keepsake for your family.
5. your photos
Parents absolutely adore the newborn sessions I offer, and it's reflected in the solid 5-star rating I've earned on Google. I prioritize your baby's safety as well as their & your family's comfort. My goal is to ensure that every session is a memorable experience. Plus, my galleries are brimming with a delightful variety of images to cherish.
To book your newborn session, you'll need to pay a session fee and sign a contract. This fee includes my time and expertise as your photographer, ensuring a safe environment, and access to my studio, props, and wardrobe. Keep in mind that prints and other products are available for purchase separately.
Sessions start at $600.
Let's tailor your motherhood bundle to perfectly match what you want to cherish throughout every phase of this incredible journey. Capture those special moments that truly matter to you. And the best part? Enjoy a discount when you book the entire bundle at once. I mean, who wouldn't love that? Let's create a package that's as unique as your motherhood journey!

Kate was such a pleasure to work with and created such a comfortable environment for newborn photos. Highly recommend booking with her.
We had a great experience with Kate! I was nervous about including our toddler in with the newborn photos and Kate made it so easy. She really captured the moments perfectly and did a fantastic job making my toddler feel included in all aspects! She went above and beyond letting him "take photos" standing right next to her throughout the shoot.
I had the pleasure of working with Kate for a newborn photoshoot, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Kate was not only incredibly professional but also incredibly patient and gentle with my baby. Her friendly and warm demeanor made the entire process enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend Kate for all your family photography needs; you won't be disappointed!

Kate did a great job with our newborn. She was very gentle and patient with him throughout the entire shoot, even when he became upset. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a local photographer.
april
Kate has done several sessions for my family - family, wedding, newborn... I am always thrilled with the quality of her work, quick turnaround time, and her professionalism. I would highly recommend Kate for all your photography needs!
amy
I found Kate to capture our lifestyle newborn session, and it simply was the best decision ever! She came into our chaotic home of six & captured sweet moments that I will cherish forever...I trust her with capturing life's most precious moments to create true, beautiful works of art.
brittany
Kate is so friendly and flexible. It can be challenging to work with a baby because of needing breaks, but she was so accommodating and we had such a great time while also capturing beautiful moments with our new daughter.
christine
We did in home newborn pictures. Kate does a great job of getting a lot out of a session while feeling relaxed and not rushed. And obviously our photos have all been beautiful as well. Thank you Kate!
kara
Kate is the BEST, hands down! We have tried several photographers in the area looking for the right fit.
I knew within the first few moments of working with her that she was it! Not only was she kind, genuine, easy to work with, and NEVER rushed us…..but her work is absolutely STUNNING!! We have shot with her twice so far, and already have another session booked. I would recommend Kate to anyone! You will not be disappointed!!
ABBY
Kate was awesome to work with! I waited a little longer than I should have waited to reach out about newborn photos, but she replied to my inquiry very quickly and was able to squeeze me in for newborn photos.
jackie
Kate is the sweetest! She had everything ready to go and took the stress off of me after having a baby! She had the clothes not only for me but my two boys, daughter, and husband. It was a breath of fresh air for sure. We can't wait to book another session with her!
