What a sweet blessing a new baby is!
Whether this is your first or your fourth, each pregnancy, delivery, and baby is a unique journey and I would be honored to help you document it. My style would be considered lifestyle and usually photographed in your own home or hospital right after birth.
Being a mom of two, rest assured. I know proper newborn handling and can even help you swaddle them. I have been photographing them for over 12 years! I promise that I come from a judgement free zone too. Your house is a mess and your nursery isn't even set up yet? No worries, I can make it work (and have trust me!). My ultimate goal is to provide you with a warm, comfortable atmosphere while also freezing in time every skin wrinkle and tiny toe.
I am happy to follow your little ones journey through their entire first year too! The moments fly by so fast and even in a few days, your baby will change tremendously and you don't want to look back with just a camera roll full of pictures. You will want to revisit them with timeless albums and prints to enjoy for years to come.

The
Experience
Give me alllll of the details! It is very important for me to know when your due date is and what kind of delivery you are expecting (scheduled or whenever baby decides to make their debut!) I will send you over all of the package details so you can make your selection on what session (or sessions) you would like.
Let's Chat!
Now that I know what session(s) you are interested in booking and when your baby is scheduled to arrive, we will set our tentative session dates. For in-home, I schedule it for the weekend following your due date. I will send over a quote containing a contract detailing our arrangement and an invoice for initial payment. Once I receive those two things, you are officially booked on my calendar and I am all yours! Yay!
Handlin' Business
Your world has changed forever! Your baby is finally here and I know how much of an adjustment it can be. I am flexible on rescheduling dates and times if need be. Just send me a text once baby is born and we can adjust our tentative date if necessary (but preferably within the first 2 weeks.) Newborn sessions typically run 1-1.5 hours because I always want to keep it a calm environment. If baby needs to eat, no worries! I am in no rush, and you shouldn't be either!
yOUR BABY is here!
Grab the tissues and prepare to fall in love! About 2 weeks after our session, I will email you a link to your gallery. You will be able to see all of your beautiful photos and decide on which collection is right for you. Images are downloaded and purchases are made directly from the gallery. Easy! Thank you for trusting me with your precious memories!

"Amy is a dream to work with! She truly takes her time and captures the heart! She has a great way of making you feel comfortable and beautiful! And that is huge to me! She is amazing with children, babies, and even fur babies! I highly recommend her for all your photography needs!"
- Aubrea
"Amy is amazing and professional. We just love her photography! She's very talented. We enjoyed working with Amy for our newborn and family portraits. We couldn't be happier! Amy also makes you feel comfortable and her sessions are fun! I will be using Amy for our future family and baby portraits! Thank you Amy!"
-Danielle
"I can't say enough amazing things about Amy! I've been working with her for nearly 3 years now starting when I was pregnant with my son. I have used her to document behind the camera ALL of my most important life events. Twice for a maternity shoot, Fresh-48, several family shoots (first and second birthday), and now engagement/baby announcement. I've worked with several photographers in the past but always trust Amy to capture the moment perfectly.
- Alex
"Amy's business name is so appropriate - she really does know how to capture the feeling of a family. You won't get a one dimensional portrait with her - you'll get a glimpse into the best part of your relationship with your loved ones. She's a perfect combo of skill and heart."
- Megan
