You haven’t met them yet—but you already love them more than words can say. You imagine their face. You wonder who they’ll look like. You picture holding them, memorizing every tiny feature.
And when they arrive, it all happens so fast.
That’s why newborn sessions matter.
These photos preserve the beginning of everything—those early days of wonder, warmth, and connection. Whether you want to focus on your baby alone or include the whole family, your session will reflect the quiet magic of those first weeks.
You don’t need to plan anything perfectly. Just book now, and when the time comes, I’ll be there—ready to capture your baby, your love, and your story with calm, natural care.

If you have any hesitation about booking with Jessica, don’t! I Let me tell you… it was an amazing experience from start to finish! I didn’t have to worry about what me and my family would wear, she took care of all of it. And during the actual photoshoot she was amazing. Quick but calm and did such a great job of soothing both of my girls when they got fussy from time to time (we have a newborn and a 2 year old). Lastly, the photos turned out absolutely beautiful and we will cherish them forever!

Jessica was so patient and made the experience so fun and easy! She listened to all of our baby's cues and we would pause to feed and take a break anytime he got a little fussy. Our prints turned out amazing and even better than we expected. Great experience and would highly recommend!

Taylor & Taylor
Our family had newborn family photos done by Jessica. Jessica made it completely effortless on our end. All we had to do was show up. She provided outfits for my entire family including my husband. Jessica is so patient and kind. The time spent taking photos was so quick and she did great with our girls.

Jessica is a baby whisperer and has all of the magic touches to get the perfect smiles and coos out of little ones! She is so kind and always has such a positive approach that naturally lightens up the room and makes for a fun session! Jessica takes the most beautiful photos!
