The first days with your new baby are some of the most precious and fleeing moment of your life. Newborn sessions are a joyous occasion that celebrate genuine and real moments in your home.

I like to approach my newborn sessions like lifestyle sessions, with my primary focus on the interaction between the new baby and his or her family and surroundings. Unlike a studio session, with props and controlled poses, I want to tell the story of your newborn at home. Show me how you cradle your baby, how you rock together and look into each other’s eyes.

The focus is on the family and on the connections—so bring in big brothers and sisters or even the family dog or cat. Or all of the above! Lifestyle sessions are honest and natural, with an authentic and candid approach. I explain to my brand-new parents that I just want to capture them being them, and it all falls into place from there.

To encourage a natural atmosphere and to get those more relaxed, tender moments, I will travel to my clients’ homes. Once I’m there, I want you to do what you usually do—and that means plenty of time for feeding, changing, and soothing the baby if you need to. Don’t worry about the trip; I cater to families all over the place— New Orleans, Metairie, Covington, North Shore, Baton Rouge and Slidell.
