Fine Art Newborn & First Year Milestone Portraits
Capturing your baby’s first year, one beautiful chapter at a time
The first year of your baby’s life is filled with wonder, change, and moments you’ll never get back. From their tiny newborn fingers to their first wobbly steps, each stage is a milestone worth remembering. My fine art newborn and milestone portraits are crafted to preserve these fleeting memories as timeless, heirloom-quality works of art — photographs you’ll cherish long after the first birthday candles are blown out.

The Newborn Experience
Your baby will never be this small again. My newborn sessions are designed to be calm, safe, and stress-free for both you and your little one. I use baby-led posing and gentle direction to ensure your child’s comfort at all times, while capturing a mix of solo newborn portraits and family images that celebrate your growing bond.
Sessions can take place in my Mount Pleasant studio, in your home, or at another meaningful location. Each image is professionally edited in true-to-life colors with a fine art touch, ensuring your portraits will look as beautiful decades from now as they do today.
The “Grow With Me” Milestone Plan
Babies change so much in their first year — let’s document it all.
Your Grow With Me plan includes:
- Newborn + Family Session – Capturing those first precious days together.
- 3 Months – Tummy time smiles, early expressions, and parent cuddles.
- 6 Months – Sitting unassisted, giggles, and curious eyes.
- 9 Months – Crawling, pulling up to stand, and playful personality.
- 12 Months – First birthday portraits, including an optional cake smash for a fun, celebratory finale.
Each session is planned to highlight your baby’s current abilities and personality, creating a complete visual story of their first year.
The Baby Book – Your First Year Album
At the end of your Grow With Me plan, all the highlights from each session are artfully designed into a professional baby book — a fine art album that becomes your family’s first heirloom. With its archival-quality materials and timeless design, this album will be treasured for generations, telling the story of your child’s earliest days with beauty and heart.
Investment
The creative fee for all newborn and milestone sessions is $350, which reserves your date and covers planning, photography, and professional editing.
Most families invest between $650 and $1,200 for their complete portrait experience, including chosen artwork and digital files.

How We Create The Froggie's Pose
Always Make it Special
The plan.....
This sweet boys grandpa passed away just before he was born. Mom brought a shirt grandpa always wore, in hopes to use it in the photos somehow.
The result....
So I stuffed the shirt and placed the baby in the arms. By cropping in, I made it look as if grandpa was holding him. Mom and I both cried during the session! Mom ordered a stretched canvas print and gave it to daddy for his first fathers day. This is what makes a session unique and so heartwarming!
