Newborn Session
Bay Area Newborn Photography Portfolio
Capturing quiet, connected moments right in the comfort of your home
Let me come to you and photograph the quiet, beautiful moments of your newborn’s early days. These are the images I wish I had of my own baby.
In-home sessions are perfect for families who want to remember this tender chapter in an honest and meaningful way. There is no need to pack up or head to a studio. You can simply stay close to your baby while I gently document your story.

A warm and natural session with baby and their pup. This post includes planning tips and prenatal resources, and postpartum support ideas for new moms.
Photos, stories, and tips to help you plan a relaxed, meaningful session.
This chapter moves quickly. Those soft newborn stretches, sleepy smiles, and tiny fingers only last a short while. My in-home newborn sessions are designed to preserve these details without the pressure of a studio setting.
I come to you and gently document your family's story where it began — at home. These sessions are calm, baby-led, and filled with natural light. Whether it’s feeding time, snuggles, bath time, or just rocking your baby to sleep, I will guide you with care while creating a gallery full of timeless images.
You stay close. I do the rest.
Why Choose In-Home Newborn Photography
Your gallery often includes:
- Natural, connection-filled images
- Sweet details like tiny hands and toes
- Interactions with parents, siblings, and even pets
- Cozy moments in your nursery or favorite spaces at home
Most families book within 5 to 15 days after birth, but I am happy to photograph your baby at any age in those first precious months. We will set a tentative date and adjust once your baby arrives.
