Newborn
Booking a newborn session might feel like one more thing on that mile-long to-do list. But trust me, these first tiny yawns, scrunched-up little fingers, and those adorable sleepy smiles are moments that fly by faster than you think.
For the new mamas wondering if they’ll ever sleep again. I see you—you’re balancing this beautiful whirlwind of snuggles, midnight feedings, and endless diaper changes.
My goal is to make this experience easy and stress-free—so you can show up, breathe, and let me capture the magic of these early days that’ll last way beyond those sleepless nights.
Newborn sessions are full of surprises, and that’s the beauty of it! Whether your little one is sleeping away, wide-eyed and curious, or a tad fussy (totally normal!), I’m here for all of it. This session is all about keeping things easy and comfortable for you and your little one, capturing them just as they are. I’ll go at your baby’s pace, taking breaks whenever needed. My goal is to always make sure you have downtime, but it can never hurt to plan a little extra time just for the two of you. Whether sneaking away for your own cocktail hour, going for a walk, private vows, or a gift exchange, whatever makes sense and means the most to you both. It goes by in the blink of an eye, so make sure you savour some moments and soak in the future you two are planning for. After all, that’s what the day is all about.

Capturing the OMG, You’re Really Here, I Can’t Stop Staring, This Is Everything Moment.
The first 48 hours with your baby are a blur of wonder, love, and that fresh newborn magic you wish you could bottle up forever. Fresh 48 sessions capture those raw, unfiltered first moments—the tiny fingers, the squishy cheeks, the way they fit so perfectly in your arms. No props, no fuss—just real, emotional, fleeting moments in the place where your journey together begins. This is about freezing time before the whirlwind truly begins, so you can always remember exactly how it felt when your baby was brand new.
Fresh 48
In-home newborn sessions are like cozy storybooks, capturing all those tiny details—like the crib you put together at 2 a.m., the nursery wall color you debated for weeks, and those ridiculously cute baby socks you had ready way too early.
There’s something so special about bringing your baby home—the space where life as a family truly begins. In-home newborn sessions capture the beauty of your real life, the way you naturally snuggle up on the couch, the tiny baby stretches in their crib, the way their fingers wrap around yours. It’s a slow, stress-free, love-filled session where we capture the details of your baby and the home that holds your heart. No need to clean, no need to stress—just soak in the moment, and I’ll take care of the rest.

The process
Have some questions about your Newborn Photography session? Whether Fresh 48, In-home or Studio, I’ve got you covered. Here are some popular questions, but do reach out if you have any more you’d like to ask.
What Makes a Good Newborn Photographer in Minnesota?
A good newborn photographer should have tons of experience working with newborns and babies. They should also be well trained in safety, especially posing safety while making sure parents and new mums are comfortable and happy.
When Should I Book My Newborn Photography Session in Minnesota?
Newborn sessions are best when captured within the 2 weeks of life when the babies are sleepier and easier to pose. Don’t leave it too late to book; booking before your baby arrives is ideal to ensure availability around your due date.
What Should I Expect during my Newborn Session?
With me, you can expect a relaxed, welcoming, baby-led session when I make sure that your baby is comfortable and safe. These sessions usually last up to 3 hours to allow for feeding, outfit and diaper changes, and all the soothing and comfort that your baby needs.
What Should My Baby Wear for a Newborn Session?
I have a ton of options for you to choose from, such as wraps and blankets. I like to keep things natural and neutral for those warm and dreamy vibes. I like to keep it simple and cozy to highlight the natural beauty of your new bundle of joy. It’s all about them, after all.
Can Siblings / Parents Be Included in the Pictures?
Absolutely! It’s just as important to capture brothers and sisters in the pictures, too. When you inquire, let me know so I can help support you with your vision and what you need.
How Long Does It Take to Get My Newborn Photos?
The typical turnaround time for receiving newborn photos is about 4-6 weeks, ensuring each image is carefully edited for a perfect finish.
