let's connect:
I know there are many photographers you could choose from, and I am truly honored you're considering me.
I started my photography business with a passion to capture the genuine emotions of your life's biggest moments. Bringing home a brand new baby deserves to be remembered forever.
As your photographer, I vow to give you a stress-free and fun photography experience that's wholeheartedly built around serving you and your loved ones. I've photographed hundreds of babies since starting my business in 2013, so I've learned a thing or two (or 13,487) about capturing the perfect newborn session.
Welcome! I'm so thrilled you're here!
The Newborn Experience begins right here – with communication and connection! It's important that I connect with you to ensure we're a great fit to work together, chat about the vision for your newborn or milestones session, and more!
After your session is confirmed, your Newborn Experience officially begins! You will be invited to the exclusive online Client Lounge, where you will find resources – from outfit inspiration to session tips – so you can make the most of your Experience!
Your session will be centered all around your sweet bundle of joy. With all of the planning and preparing we will do before your session, you will start your session with confidence and end it with fun!
Once I have collected and edited the images from your session, I will place them inside of my gallery portal and send you a direct link to your own photo gallery where you can download and purchase your keepsake photos.
Photos weren't meant to be stored on your device. They should be admired in your home and bring warmth into your life. I offer prints and albums so you can cherish your favorite memories forever. However, purchase of prints is not required.

Kate is the absolute best! Her abilities to capture the personality of our boys is unmatched, especially since they are constantly on the move. We love how she makes us feel relaxed in front of the camera and is overall a wonderful talented friend; and baby whisperer!

Our family is so welcomed every time we see her for a session and she instantly puts us all at ease. We feel so comfortable under her direction and our photos always embrace who we truly are (no matter how chaotic that may be sometimes). I am so grateful for Kate and to have our photos on display to cherish every day!
"Kate is always our first choice for documenting life’s big moments!!"

Kate was amazing during our newborn session. We’ve worked with her for so many years I had no doubt she would capture our most precious moments with our newborn. Kate knows how to confidently handle a newborn, which as a new momma, was so reassuring. On top of that she made sure to give our sweet girl so many snuggles, was so very gentle and extra patient when working with our baby’s schedule. I cannot recommend her enough!!

My favorite part of our newborn session was how comfortable I felt with Kate. Being that recently postpartum is difficult, physically and emotionally, and I knew Kate would be a calming force during a stressful season (holidays, new house, two other children besides the newborn). Kate handled our toddlers beautifully and was the baby whisperer when it came to soothing Clara and getting her swaddled.

Kate has been capturing our family through the years and the newborn sessions are always one my favorites. She made our newborn session feel so comfortable and easy. She is patient and takes the time to really make us all feel our best through the session and is also so gentle with the babies. Her studio is absolutely beautiful and perfect for sessions full of natural light and all the props you would need! She is truly the best and I could not be happier!

Typically, 3-4 months in advance for specific due dates. Some of my busier months book up very quickly, so it never hurts to reach out as soon as you are thinking about booking a sessions and I can get you on my calendar! I only put your due date on the calendar and then firmly schedule the session when baby arrives.
Neutrals are ALWAYS a fan favorite! You should definitely speak to your own family's style, but don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone a bit! After you book, I will send you access to my Client Lounge which will include tons of tips and resources to help you plan the perfect outfits!
I will deliver your final gallery link via email within two to three weeks of your session date. The email will be accompanied with instructions on how to download or order prints directly from your gallery. A print release will also be included.
