The perfect backdrop isn’t always about the location—it’s about how your child feels there. Whether we’re in our cozy Alvin studio, the park next door, or your living room, the best spot is wherever they feel most like themselves. Let’s capture this season exactly as it is.

Real smiles, belly laughs, shy glances—those are the moments we’re after. This post shares my favorite tips to help your child feel comfortable and confident during a photoshoot so we can capture the real them, just as they are.

Fresh 48 and Studio Newborn sessions both capture your baby’s first days—but in very different ways. Whether you want raw, emotional moments in the hospital or soft, posed portraits in a cozy studio, this guide breaks down the pros and cons of each so you can choose the perfect newborn photography experience for your family.

Your newborn session is all about capturing your little one in their tiniest, sweetest stage—curled up, sleepy, and oh-so-new. While we’ll take care of the posing, safety, and cozy setup, a little prep on your end can make all the difference for a smooth, peaceful experience.

The first few days with your newborn are a whirlwind—tiny fingers wrapped around yours, sleepy yawns, milk-drunk smiles, and that indescribable new baby smell. It’s pure magic… and it goes by in a blur.

Pregnancy is such a fleeting and beautiful chapter—your body is growing life, and that’s worth celebrating. A maternity photoshoot is the perfect way to capture the glow, emotion, and excitement before baby arrives.

Styling your photo session doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Whether you're celebrating a graduation, a new baby on the way, or just capturing your family as they are right now—what you wear plays a big role in how your photos feel. I always say: go for simple, natural colors, pieces that move with you, and outfits that make you feel like yourself—just a little elevated.

Maternity photos help you remember the little things: the curve of your belly, the way your partner looks at you, the calm before your world changes. We don’t have to over-style it or make it a big deal. It’s really about freezing a little bit of this magic before it fades.

Because your babies won’t always be this little, and you won’t always be the one behind the camera.

Brooke and Rory have grown up in front of my camera. This is such an honor. To be trusted time and time again to photograph someone’s baby as they grow…to capture their essence on film to look back and remember just how small they were.
