Welcoming a new baby is one of life’s most incredible moments, and capturing those first memories is so truly so special. I recommend scheduling your newborn photo session within the first two weeks after birth. I’ll share more on why I love this timeframe!
When it comes to capturing your pregnancy journey through photos, timing truly is important! As a Nashville maternity photographer, a question I get asked often is when to book maternity photos? I love capturing mamas when they are between 28-32 weeks pregnant.
Whether you’re expecting your first child or your fourth, it is important to capture the beauty of each pregnancy. The photos allow you to reflect on the mother you are becoming and not the mother you have been — something we as mamas of multiples don’t get to do often.
As a Nashville photographer, I absolutely love the opportunity to travel for sessions. Whether it’s for a retreat or being hired to capture special moments, creating imagery in a location that is outside of my norm truly fills my creative cup. This session was no exception.
When planning a family photo session, much of the focus often goes to what mamas and children should wear. But what should dads wear for photos? This blog post will be all about what to wear for photos: dad edition.

Behind the Camera

Maybe that's why I believe you don't need a more perfect season — just photographs that remind you what this one felt like.
The little personalities. The changing seasons. The way your children fit into your arms today.
