Welcoming a new baby is one of life's most unforgettable moments, and choosing the right photographer to preserve those memories is an important decision. As an award-winning Cary newborn photographer, I specialize in creating timeless, heartfelt newborn portraits that celebrate your growing family with beautiful, natural imagery you'll treasure for generations.

Whether you prefer the comfort of an in-home newborn photography session or a fully styled experience in my nearby studio, every session is designed around your baby's comfort and safety. My baby-led approach allows plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and cuddles, ensuring a relaxed experience for both parents and newborns.

Studio or In-Home Newborn Photography

Every family is different, which is why I offer two ways to document your baby's first days.

Studio Sessions

My warm and welcoming studio provides everything needed for your newborn session, including carefully selected wraps, headbands, bonnets, baskets, and timeless props.

In-Home Sessions

If you'd rather stay home after welcoming your baby, I'll bring the experience to you. In-home newborn sessions allow your family to relax while I create beautiful portraits in the comfort of your own home.

When Should You Book Your Newborn Session?

The best time to reserve your newborn photography session is during your second trimester.

Once your baby arrives, simply let me know, and we'll schedule your session during the first 5–14 days after birth, when newborns are naturally sleepiest and most comfortable in curled poses.
