Your Denver Newborn Photographer experience should be a lasting memory that you treasure for years to come. I understand the importance of capturing these early moments—not just as a newborn photographer but as a mom whose kiddos are growing up all too quickly. When I had my first baby, I was amazed at how quickly my tiny newborn transformed into a chunky, sitting baby, especially since pregnancy felt like it would last forever. These fleeting weeks are so precious, and I’m here to help you soak in this season by holding onto the memories that mean the most.
My organic approach blends artistry with a deep love for newborn photography, creating baby portraits that reflect this window in time. Let’s document those tiny details and tender moments so you can relive them again and again.
Imagine holding a photograph that freezes time, capturing your baby’s tiny fingers wrapped around yours or their ever-adorable yawn. With every session, I strive to create a stress-free environment, ensuring you and your baby are relaxed and happy. This atmosphere allows me to focus on the intricacies of posing your newborn into those curly womb-like poses. Each session is tailored to be as unique as your little one, incorporating elements that highlight your family’s connection.
When you choose me as your Denver newborn photographer, you’re selecting more than a studio photography session—you’re investing in a Denver newborn photographer experience tailored to YOU. Each photograph will be a cherished memory that embodies the beginning of a beautiful journey, portraying the delicate features and unique details of your newborn. My goal is to provide my clients with an emotive collection of portraits that showcases this fleeting stage—from the stretch of little fingers to the curl of a tiny foot, capturing the joy of these precious moments.
With 15 years of experience as a Denver newborn photographer and as a mom of five, I’ve mastered the art of creating calm, comfortable sessions where your baby’s earliest moments are beautifully captured. Clients often call me the “baby whisperer” and joke about asking if I make house calls at 4 a.m.—and if it involved newborn cuddles, I’d be tempted! A key part of my process is styling your setups and thoughtfully choosing props to reflect your personal style and vision. From handpicked, timeless pieces to perfectly curated details, each setup is designed to create a cohesive, high-end look. Together, we’ll craft a session tailored to you, resulting in stunning portraits you’ll treasure forever.
To ensure availability, it’s best to book your newborn session during your second trimester, as I take a limited number of newborns each month to accommodate due dates. Once your baby arrives and everyone is settled, we’ll schedule the photoshoot for when your little one is between 5-15 days old. To make everything seamless, I provide a detailed digital session prep guide to help you prepare for your session and ensure a relaxed, enjoyable experience.
Your baby’s comfort is my top priority. I use safe posing techniques and props designed specifically for newborns by fellow newborn photographers. Every session is baby-led, allowing me to adjust poses based on your baby’s natural preferences. Some little ones love being wrapped, while others enjoy stretching out—it often depends on how they were curled up during pregnancy. By following your baby’s cues, I ensure they’re comfortable and content, capturing them in the most natural and genuine way.
The studio is fully equipped with everything we need for those adorable setups, but bringing a few items from home can make the session even smoother. Consider packing burp cloths, a thicker blanket, extra bottles, pacifiers, and diapers for your baby. If older siblings are joining, snacks, coloring books, or small games can help keep them entertained while we focus on your baby are very helpful.
Newborn sessions generally last between 2 to 3 hours. This allows ample time for feeding, diaper changes, and comforting, so we can capture your baby in natural states of rest and alertness. My mini sessions are done in under an hour as your baby stays wrapped the entire session.
Don’t worry! With extensive experience calming newborns, I ensure every session is relaxed and tailored to your baby’s unique needs. Patience is key, and I allow plenty of time to soothe your baby, always following their cues. Moms are welcome to top baby off with a feed to ensure a full tummy, helping them stay content and sleepy. The studio is thoughtfully designed to create a cozy, calming environment, with warm temperatures, soft white noise, and dim lighting to help your little one feel at ease. If your baby is more alert or you’re booking later—such as with an older newborn or one who spent time in the NICU—wide-awake shots can be just as adorable, capturing their curious expressions and bright eyes. Whether your baby is peacefully sleeping or wide awake, we’ll create a session that embraces their natural moments.
Yes, including siblings and family members is encouraged to capture the special bonds shared with your newborn, ensuring a memorable family experience, just like in our maternity sessions which beautifully document the journey before the baby’s arrival. These inclusive sessions result in meaningful family memories and portraits that celebrate your growing family.
Each session is thoughtfully designed by a professional photographer to provide a seamless and personalized experience. Here’s what’s included:
