Newborn & First Year

In-home newborn sessions and first-year milestone bundles across the DMV.

Newborn sessions are quiet, slow, and built entirely around the baby. I shoot in your home so the baby stays in their own space and you don't have to pack the world into a diaper bag — natural light, simple wraps, and plenty of feeding and snuggle breaks.

If you want to document more than just the first weeks, the First Year Bundle covers newborn, 6-month sitter session, and the 1-year cake-smash so you have a single cohesive set of photos at the end of year one — all edited in the same style so they look like a series, not three random shoots.

Sibling and parent shots are always welcome — pick the package that fits the chapter you're in.

Booked a maternity session with me? You'll get a discounted rate on any newborn or first-year package — ask when you book. If you'd rather mark the 1st birthday with a full party instead of the cake-smash mini, Family Celebrations has documentary event coverage built for it.
