memories that will last a lifeetime
newborn photography
I specialize in a natural, baby-led style of newborn photography. The style of photography I do for newborns is organic, pure and minimalistic with no extra posing. I believe the main focus should be your baby and the emotion and love that comes with this new addition to your family.

Moments
capturing life's most Precious
Kelowna Newborn Photographer
My aim is to create an environment where you can connect with your little ones, whether it's through playfulness or simply holding them close while they're still small enough to fit in your arms. It's about embracing the moment and creating lasting memories for the future. I knew from the start that motherhood photography would be my focus because it's where I feel the strongest connection. There's something truly special about connecting with other moms and celebrating the beauty of motherhood together.

Photos with memories that will last even after the children have left the nest
For newborn photography, I believe the main focus should be your baby and the emotion and love that comes with this new addition to your family. Each session is unique and catered to your baby as I like to photograph them the way they are - asleep or awake.
I make sure to include parents and siblings in every newborn session. I understand that it can sometimes feel daunting to step in front of the camera, but rest assured, I will do my best to make you feel comfortable. These moments are incredibly precious, and I'm dedicated to capturing them in a way that you'll cherish for a lifetime.
Forever
to cherish
I do neutral tones for timeless, beautiful imagery. I aspire to capture memories of your newborns life during the first few days and weeks - with breathtaking images that you can hold on to forever.
Sessions are done in my home studio, and typically last approximately two hours, allowing time for feeding and comforting if needed.

How do we receive our photos?
It's truly wonderful to capture the whole family with the new baby. I highly encourage having parents and siblings included in photos with the baby. Please let me know in advance if you plan to include any additional individuals beyond parents and siblings, so we can plan accordingly. If you'd like to include extra people in the photographs, there will be an extra charge. Please note space in the studio is limited.
Can I incorporate siblings and other family?
The session fee includes my preparation time and the duration of our session together. However, it doesn't cover digital prints or products; these are purchased separately as part of a collection. You have the flexibility to view your slideshow first before deciding on the collection that suits you best.
are images included in the session fee?
After booking your session, you'll receive a newborn prep guide to help you prepare. It covers outfit recommendations that best suit my photography style, along with other helpful tips. Additionally, I offer a selection of beautifully curated dresses for moms from my client closet, as well as adorable outfits for your baby!
What do we wear?
Most newborn sessions typically last between 1.5 to 2 hours. I prioritize a relaxed approach and adjust the session pace according to the baby's needs. We take as many breaks as necessary for feeding or diaper changes. My commitment is to dedicate ample time to capture all the precious moments that matter to you.
