CAKE SMASH EXPERIENCE
A joyful, thoughtfully styled cake smash experience designed to celebrate your baby’s first birthday with timeless images and genuine moments.
Experience Timeless Portraits in the Comfort of Your Home
From our first chat to the delivery of your gallery, every part of your In-Home Newborn Session is designed to feel natural, calm, and stress-free.
We’ll capture your baby in the comfort of your own home, where they feel safe and at ease. I work with the light and spaces you already have, guiding moments gently while letting your family’s natural connection shine.
This isn’t just a photo session—it’s a relaxed, all-inclusive experience focused on authentic, everyday moments and the little details that make this season of life unforgettable.
What Makes In-Home Sessions Special
Your home is where your baby feels safest—and where your story naturally unfolds. In-home newborn sessions are unhurried, flexible, and designed to keep things simple during those early days.
- No travel with a newborn
- Familiar, calm environment
- Flexible pacing for feeding and soothing
- Natural, meaningful moments
What to Expect (How It Works)
A Stress-Free Experience, From Start to Finish
I’ll guide you every step of the way—from choosing the best rooms and light to gentle posing and natural interaction. I bring everything needed and work around your baby’s rhythm, allowing plenty of time for feeding, cuddling, and breaks.
When Should You Schedule Your Newborn Session?
The best time to book your newborn session is as soon as you find out you’re pregnant. It’s never too early to secure your spot.
Newborn photography has a very small window, and studio availability is limited—especially during busy seasons. Booking early ensures you have a reserved place on my calendar without the stress of trying to find last-minute availability after your baby arrives.
Your session is scheduled based on your due date, not a fixed day. Once your baby is born, we’ll adjust the session date as needed. If your baby arrives earlier or later than expected, we’ll simply shift the session to match your baby’s arrival and developmental stage.
Planning ahead allows for a relaxed, flexible experience—so when your baby is here, all you need to focus on is enjoying those first days together.

Props Add-On (Optional)
For families who would like a lightly styled touch, I offer an optional props add-on for in-home newborn sessions. This includes one carefully selected prop, along with coordinating wraps and/or a simple headband, chosen to complement your home and keep the look soft and timeless.
Props are used briefly and gently, always following your baby’s comfort and cues. This add-on adds a subtle styled moment while keeping the overall session natural, relaxed, and lifestyle-focused.
The props add-on is completely optional and can be added during the booking process.

To ensure your images feel cohesive and elevated, you’ll receive complimentary access to Style & Select, an interactive styling tool that helps you confidently coordinate outfits that photograph beautifully among the blooms.
Style & Select is a personalized styling experience included with your session. Before your photoshoot, you’ll receive access to a curated wardrobe and outfit coordination tools designed specifically for newborn and family photography.
This ensures your colors, textures, and outfits photograph beautifully together, creating a soft, timeless look without the stress of figuring it all out on your own. It allows you to arrive relaxed and confident, knowing every detail has been thoughtfully planned to complement your baby and preserve this season of life beautifully.
Color Palette Inspiration
This soft, neutral color palette was designed to create a timeless and cohesive look for studio newborn and family portraits. Creams, oatmeals, and light taupes keep the focus on connection and emotion, while subtle touches of dusty blush, sage, and muted blue add gentle depth without overpowering the images. These tones photograph beautifully against white backdrops, complement natural skin tones, and ensure your gallery feels light, airy, and elegant for years to come.
Albums & Printed Artwork
Photographs are meant to be experienced, not just stored. Albums and printed artwork give your images a lasting presence — something you can revisit, share, and pass down over time.
An album preserves the full story of your session, while printed pieces allow your images to live beautifully in your home rather than on a screen. For families who wish to add prints or artwork, these options are available following your session.
Studio vs In-Home
Which Is Right for You?
In-home sessions focus on lifestyle, connection, and storytelling, while studio sessions offer a more styled, minimalist look. Both are calm and baby-led - you simply choose the experience that best fits your family.
