waiting in anticipation
Maternity portraits to beautifully capture the way you’re becoming MOM
Everything’s about to change — and you seriously can’t wait. But before you rush off to finish the baby registry or paint the nursery, make sure to take some time just for you. It’s a big thing that you’re doing right now, growing a brand new life. You deserve to remember it!
Our maternity session is held in my bright and airy studio where you’ll find everything you need to be comfortable, from sparkling water stocked in the fridge to comfortable places to sit. Through it all, you can count on my guidance to help you find flattering, simple poses that show off that growing bump and your pregnancy glow (it’s a real thing, trust me!)
your maternity experience
One of my favorite parts — and hopefully yours too! — of maternity sessions is the client closet. It’s a selection of pretty, luxe gowns that I love to share with you. Whether you’re hoping for a simple yet stunning look or want to turn up the elegance, I have bump-friendly gowns to fit your style. You can also add on hair and make-up to really create a pampering experience.

SO FUN AND EASYGOING! - NICOLE
Typically, newborn sessions last between 1 to 1.5 hours, and it's advisable to plan for the full 1.5-hour session. Due to the delicate nature of newborn photography, these sessions often take longer than other baby portrait sessions.
how long will the session last?
Newborn Photography Sessions are scheduled in my Cedar Rapids studio. Designed for complete comfort for your family and optimal lighting to achieve the images you see in my portfolio, all items needed for the newborn photoshoot to take place are provided at the studio.
where do the sessions take place?
Newborn sessions are best when your infant is within the first 7-21 days of birth.
how old should my baby be for the session?
Anytime in your second or third trimester, however if your little has already arrived - don't panic - I have a flexible schedule and will be able to get you in.
when should i book a newborn photo session?
