There are things in this season that you don’t want to forget.
It goes by fast, you already know. So, hit the pause button. Take time to notice. Take time to celebrate the JOY of this season.
Newborn lifestyle sessions are photographed in the cozyness of your own home. I love capturing babies in their natural environment, at home and in their parent's arms. No fussy props or unsafe posing. Babies are often most content in their parents' arms, so that's where they'll stay for the majority of your lifestyle newborn session: safe and cozy, whether awake or snoozing.
It is my goal to make your session relaxed,
laid-back, and comfortable.
As a lifestyle photographer, I live for those natural joy-filled moments — but no worries at all, I walk you through and guide you in order to orchestrate those moments. I’ll take time to photograph the family together, baby on her own and with each parent and sibling.
A Newborn Session is around 90 minutes to an hour. We’ll do things at baby’s pace (and if there are older siblings at home, at their pace, too). Our time is unrushed, which gives us the freedom to take feeding and diaper breaks. I’m a mom of four boys, so I’m comfortable with your chaos, and I assure you that I can help you find the beauty within!
After your session, I’ll send a private sneak peek to your inbox within a week, and a thoughtfully curated gallery that tells the full story of your session (often 80+ images). Your secure online gallery of hi-res images will be available for 4 months to view, download, order and share images – and the session price includes the printing rights to all images received.
I’m an “all-inclusive” photographer which means you don’t just have to pick your favorites from the gallery. It’s all yours! Photos will mean different things when you look at them years down the road, and you shouldn’t have to predict that now when you’re hormonal and sleep-deprived!
In a season where time slips away so quickly, and is so often stolen away by distractions, I’m passionate about helping new moms slow down to savor the sweet moments of having a newborn.Together we can create a beautiful snapshot of this season, savored and shared for generations.
Hi, I'm Abi.
I’m a chronic list-maker, so it only makes sense to share one with you here. Four things that spark life in me, that fill my cup, and make me a better version of myself.
1. Family togetherness, kindred spirits, and heart-level connections.
2. Celebrating milestones and achievements, no matter how seemingly small.
3. Creating, whether with my camera or with words or in a Project Life album or sometimes even in the kitchen.
4. Finding peace in the chaos to rest and worship my beautiful Savior.
