Hi mama! Does this sound like you?
You want photos that show the whole family—mom, dad, siblings, and baby—so you can remember exactly what this season felt like together.
You believe your newborn is already perfect just as they are, and you love the idea of simple, natural photos without all the props and heavy posing.
You want a photographer who will guide you every step of the way and make the whole experience comfortable and easy.
You have toddlers who are "crazy" and want to hire someone who knows how to work with them.
...If so, we would be a great fit!

the
process
Whether it’s your first or fifteenth time having professional photos made, not to worry: I’ll walk you through the whole thing from start to finish.
I'll send you a short personalized video covering my process and all the pricing details (no surprises later), along with answering any questions you have. If you'd like we can also have a quick phone consultation before we decide to make your session official. If we decide to work together, you’ll pay a $350 session fee to hold your date and time.
01...answering your questions
Along with a virtual stack of digital images, each collection option comes with a print credit, so you can get your favorite pictures where they belong: in print, where you can see them each and every day.
03...choose your collection
About 3 weeks after your session, I'll reach out with a private link where you'll be able to preview all of your brand-new, fully-edited images - hooray! Then, once you've seen exactly what we got, you'll be ready to choose what you want to purchase.
02...preview your images
The collection options range between $1050 and $1750, depending on the number of digital images you need. All told, my clients invest between $1400 and $2100 in their images.
frequently asked questions
While the industry standard is four weeks, you will receive your final gallery within three weeks!!
back
Absolutely. In fact, each package comes with print credit to spend in an online print store where you can order from the BEST quality print labs that I have hand-selected for you, or order an heirloom album - I'll do all the work for you!
back
I dual write every single photo to two different SD cards, and then immediately back them up to at least 2 additional security hard drives.
back
Easy. You inquire, I'll send over a short, personalized video explaining the process (or we can hop on a call if you'd like!) and we'll make sure we're the right fit. Then I'll send you a contract & invoice that you can take care of with just a few clicks.
back
As early as you can. Dates usually book up quick, and I only do a maximum of two sessions per week to ensure top-notch attention is given to all my families. Maternity photos are typically best taken anytime between 30-34 weeks. By this time you’ve developed a nice baby bump and typically aren’t too uncomfortable. Newborn photos are best taken within the baby’s first 7 to 14 days. I just make a note in my calendar of your due date, then when baby actually comes - let me know! We'll set a firm date from there.

"We are so happy we have found Michelle! We have loved working with her and have had such a great experience. The photos that she captured and delivered are beautiful! She made it very relaxing and comfortable to get our pictures taken and she did really well with our baby. She is also super quick to respond to any questions. We love our photos and we are so grateful we have beautiful family photos to cherish forever. We would highly recommend Michelle!"

Your baby's
first
story
beautifully
Newborn albums
bound
There’s something so powerful about holding your baby’s story in your hands. Screens are wonderful, but flipping through an album—feeling the weight of it, seeing each moment laid out beautifully—brings those early days rushing back in a way nothing else can. These are the moments you never want to forget: the tiny fingers, the sleepy smiles, the way they fit perfectly into your arms.
An heirloom album becomes more than a book; it becomes part of your family’s story. It’s something your child will someday look through, seeing how deeply they were loved from the very beginning. As the years pass and life gets busier, this album will remain—a timeless keepsake that holds the sweetness, the tenderness, and the magic of those fleeting newborn days. It’s a gift to your future self, and to the generations who will treasure it after you.
