Maternity, Birth & Motherhood Photography
Pregnancy is a powerful, beautiful journey ā and it deserves to be remembered. I offer maternity sessions and birth photography in Los Angeles, as well as motherhood portraits. Whether you're dreaming up a romantic sunset beach session, a cozy home session, or a bold boudoir maternity shoot, weāll make something truly meaningful together.
Childbirth is one of the most powerful moments in your life, and one of the best ways to capture the rawest, most honest moments is through birth photography. Having a photographer present is a very personal decision, and as a mother of two, I take this role very seriously. Whether youāre planning on a home or hospital birth, itās an honor to document these moments for you.
Newborn Photography Youāll Treasure Forever
Those first few weeks fly by ā letās capture them while they last. I specialize in newborn photography, including affordable in-home lifestyle sessions that are calm, cozy, and full of love. From tiny toes and flaky fingers to sleepy cuddles, every little detail matters.
Ready to capture your story? Book your session today, and letās create something magical.
