this is just the beginning
because you want to hold on to the sweetness of this new beginning
you are here
I'm here to help you remember what it felt like.
As a mother of two, I know how precious and fleeting the newborn stage is. You'll spend those first days with the weight of their body on your chest, memorizing every tiny detail as best you can. You want to bottle up their tiny fingers, their newborn breath and that sweet newborn scrunch. Someday soon you'll long to revisit these blurry memories, and I want to help you do that!
As a northern Kentucky newborn photographer with more than six years of experience, I've had the privilege of preserving these fleeting moments for countless growing families. I understand that welcoming a new baby comes with enough to think about, which is why I've created a full-service newborn photography experience that allows you to simply soak in this season while I take care of the details.
Whether you're adjusting to life with your first baby or embracing the joyful chaos of adding another little one to your family, you'll be gently guided every step of the way. From access to a thoughtfully curated client wardrobe and timeless studio styling to natural posing that keeps your baby safe and comfortable, every detail is designed to create a relaxed, enjoyable experience. My goal is to preserve not only how these first days looked, but how they felt, so you can relive the love, tenderness, and overwhelming joy of this season for generations to come.
This is what I do for you
Once you've booked your Northern Kentucky Newborn Photography session with me, we'll meet at my studio to plan your session! I'll help style you & your babies with outfits that have been carefully curated & photograph beautifully. We'll finalize a location & start discussing what your goals are for artwork in your home.
If you're using my hair & makeup artist, I will have her scheduled to pamper you before your session. I'll have your outfits steamed and ready to go on location. We'll have a fun, relaxed session together. My gentle guidance and eye for detail will help us capture the beauty and essence of your family in a natural way.
When your photos are ready, we'll meet again at the studio for your photo reveal and ordering appointment. You'll view custom artwork designs I've created just for you, and we'll finalize all the details that make the artwork uniquely YOU.
MMP clients plan to spend $1200+ at their ordering appointment.
