Maternity & Newborn Photography

in Madison, Wisconsin

Honoring the quiet, powerful beginning of your family’s story

 

There is a softness to this season.

The waiting.
The wondering.
The way your hands rest instinctively over your belly…
and later, the way they cradle something impossibly small.

Your maternity and newborn sessions aren’t about perfection. They’re about connection, presence, and preserving a chapter that passes far too quickly.

I’m here to help you slow it all down—and remember it beautifully.

A gentle celebration of the life you’re growing

Maternity sessions are calm, intimate, and deeply meaningful. We focus on the anticipation and tenderness of this season—the quiet strength, the love already blooming, the way your family is shifting and expanding.

Whether we photograph you in my cozy studio, outdoors in Madison’s soft natural light, or in your home, every session is guided gently and designed to help you feel confident, beautiful, and fully yourself.

Maternity sessions are perfect for:

  • First-time parents

  • Growing families

  • Solo maternity portraits

  • Including partners and siblings

  • Capturing connection before baby arrives

Newborn Photography in Madison, WI

Tiny details. Big feelings. Documented with care.

 

Newborn sessions are slow, baby-led, and intentionally relaxed. There is no rush—only space to settle in, snuggle close, and soak up the sweetness of these first days.

I focus on natural moments:
tiny fingers wrapped around yours, sleepy stretches, gentle kisses on soft heads, and the way your home feels when everything is brand new.

This isn’t about props or stiff posing.
It’s about preserving what this season truly feels like.

Newborn sessions include:

  • Baby-led pacing

  • Natural, timeless styling

  • Parent + sibling moments

  • In-home or studio options

  • A calm, supportive experience

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I book my maternity session?

Most maternity sessions take place between 28–34 weeks, when your belly is beautifully round and you’re still comfortable.

 

When should newborn photos be scheduled?

 

Ideally within the first 2–3 weeks after birth. I recommend booking during pregnancy to reserve space.

 

What if my baby is fussy?

 

That’s completely okay. We follow your baby’s lead—feeding, soothing, breaks included.

 

What should we wear?

 

Soft, neutral tones photograph beautifully. I provide a simple styling guide to make this easy.
