  • My husband and I hired Kelsey to take maternity photos and we had a fantastic experience with her! She gave us great directions for posing, made us feel very comfortable throughout the photo shoot and captured photos of us that were very natural. She's a very talented photographer and has a great editing style. She's also super friendly and was very responsive to any questions and requests we had. We LOVE the photos we received, and wouldn't hesitate to hire Kelsey again for family photo shoots in the future!

  • Kelsey is an absolute WIZARD. We've hired her to take our family photos FOUR times in the past year because she has proven every single time that she's worth every penny. We'd never even consider hiring someone else. I'm always worried that we'll feel stiff and awkward in front of the camera, but Kelsey knows how to provide just the right amount of guidance to help us look our best without feeling overly "posed". And for almost every photoshoot, our little one has been either sleepy or cranky. But Kelsey is patient and creative, and always finds a way to capture our baby's BIGGEST smiles. She has always delivered a huge gallery of beautifully-edited photos to us much faster than expected. We will forever treasure the family photos she's taken for us.”

  • Kelsey is very responsive and professional. She recently took our maternity and newborn photos, and they couldn't be more perfect! Thank you for capturing our family so well!

Newborn Photography FAQ’s

When is the best time to do newborn photos?

Depending on which type of session you book, it is ideal to plan your newborn session before baby reaches 2 weeks old. This is when baby is still mostly sleepy and will still be able to be posed for photos without waking up.

How soon should I schedule my newborn photos?

It is never too early to schedule your session. We do try to accommodate last minute booking request, but it is best to schedule your session about a month prior to your due date.

What if my baby comes early or late?

Because there is no way to predict exactly when your baby will arrive, we limit how many newborn session we book a month so that we can always reschedule should your little one decide to come earlier or later.

What kind of editing do you do for newborn photography?

All of the images that you will receive are considered “ fully edited “. This means that they have been edited with for exposure & adjustments as well as my artistic styling of the photos. I also do very light skin retouching on newborn photos. This includes things like dry skin & flake removal, skin smoothing, and jaundiced skin correction. The goal is not to change how your baby looks and simply remove things that show up more in photos than they do in real life.

If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask!
