A Calm, Baby-Led Approach

My newborn sessions are designed around one simple goal — keeping your baby comfortable and calm. Whether in my Layton studio or your Salt Lake City home, I work slowly and gently so we can capture peaceful, natural moments that tell your family's story. Every pose and wrap is baby-led — if your little one needs a break, we pause, snuggle, and start again when they’re ready.

What to Expect During Your Session

Studio Newborn Sessions

Your studio session takes place in my cozy Layton space — softly lit, temperature-controlled, and stocked with wraps, blankets, and accessories. Parents can relax while I handle every detail. Most babies photograph best between 5–14 days old, but I’ll always make sure we find a time that works best for your family.

In-Home Newborn Sessions

Prefer to stay home? I bring a portable setup to you — perfect for lifestyle portraits that capture your family snuggling on the couch or in the nursery. Natural light and familiar surroundings make these images feel authentic and personal.

Baby Safety Comes First

Every newborn is handled with care and patience. I’ve photographed hundreds of babies, and I follow strict safety practices so your little one is always supported, never forced, and always comfortable.

Newborn Photography FAQ

When is the best time to photograph my newborn?

Newborn sessions are ideally scheduled when your baby is between 5–14 days old. During this time, babies are sleepiest and easiest to pose while still capturing all those fresh, tiny details.

How long does a newborn session last?

Most newborn sessions last between 2–3 hours. This allows plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and breaks so your baby stays comfortable and content throughout the session.

Do you provide props and wraps?

Yes! My Layton studio is fully stocked with soft wraps, textured blankets, headbands, and simple props designed to complement your baby — never overwhelm them. You can bring any personal items you'd like included too.

Can siblings or parents be included in the photos?

Absolutely! I love capturing those first family portraits. Parents and siblings are encouraged to join — we’ll do family photos at the start or end to keep things calm and organized.

What should we wear for our newborn session?

Simple, neutral tones photograph beautifully — think soft creams, beiges, or muted pastels. Avoid bold patterns and logos so your baby remains the focus of every image.

When should I book my newborn session?

It’s best to reserve your spot during your second trimester. We’ll pencil in your due date and adjust as needed once your baby arrives — ensuring availability during those first two weeks.
