I photograph the beginnings you can’t slow down — the quiet in-between moments, the way your baby fits in your arms, the feeling of being together at home.
These aren’t posed memories. They’re the ones you’ll come back to — the ones that feel like your life, exactly as it was.
- just as they are.
Our time together is slow and unhurried — baby-led, with space for feedings, changes, and soft cuddles.
I remember those first few weeks — full of joy, exhaustion, and everything in between.
In these quiet moments, as you hold tiny feet and breathe in your baby’s scent, I’ll be there — gently preserving it all as it unfolds.
Everything changes the moment you become a mother. And no matter the season of motherhood you’re in - brand new or beautifully familiar - your story deserves to be documented. Let me capture this immeasurable love and tender bond you share with your child as you experience this extraordinary chapter together.
Within the beauty and chaos of everyday life, your family’s story unfolds. At sunset, we’ll wander into quiet places where time slows for your family to simply be—to share laughter and stillness—and I’ll be there to capture the warmth, the playfulness, and the fleeting moments you’ll never want to forget.
We have now used her for maternity and newborn/family photos for both of our two children and absolutely love her work!
"Jess made everyone feel at ease, and the photos have been gorgeous."
She had so much patience during our newborn session and made sure our baby was comfortable. Highly recommend her!!
"Jess made me feel confident and beautiful while taking our pictures."
She was very easy to work with, calm and helpful when baby was a little wiggly, provided clear directions on how to pose for optimal angles, and very professional overall. The photos came out beautifully and are something we will always cherish!
"We are very happy with our newborn photo session with Jess!"
