Maternity + Newborn
Documentary Maternity + Newborn Photography in Bellingham + the Pacific Northwest
Motherhood changes everything — and it begins long before your baby arrives. My maternity and newborn sessions are quiet, connected, and honest. They're designed to reflect what this season feels like: soft, fleeting, tender, and full of love. Whether you're documenting your growing belly or your first days with baby at home, these sessions are about preserving more than a photo — they’re about remembering the emotion behind it.

About the booking process
Do you offer payment plans?
Maternity sessions can be held outdoors (golden light is my favorite!) or in-home if you prefer a cozy setting. Newborn sessions are always in-home, capturing your family in your natural environment where everyone feels most relaxed.
That’s totally normal — and honestly expected. Newborn sessions are baby-led and pressure-free. We take breaks for feedings, snuggles, and diaper changes. I’m here to meet your family exactly where you are.
What if my baby is fussy or things don’t go as planned?
Where do sessions take place?
I recommend scheduling your maternity session between 28 and 34 weeks — when your belly is beautifully round but you’re still comfortable enough to move and pose. Booking early ensures availability during that window.
Newborn sessions are best held within the first 7–21 days after birth, when baby is still sleepy and snuggly. That said, I take a relaxed, lifestyle approach — so if life gets messy and we shoot a little later, that’s okay too.
Yes, I do! I know that preparing for a new baby comes with a lot of expenses, and I never want cost to be the reason these fleeting moments go undocumented. A 50% retainer is due at the time of booking to reserve your session date, and the remaining balance is due one week before your session — but I’m happy to set up a custom payment plan if needed. Just let me know during booking and we’ll make it work for you.
When should I book my maternity session?
I'm based in Bellingham, Washington, and I offer maternity and newborn photography throughout Whatcom, Skagit, and Snohomish Counties — including areas like Mount Vernon, Everett, and the greater Seattle region.
My in-home newborn sessions are available across the Pacific Northwest, and I’m happy to travel for families who connect with my work and want their story documented with intention. If you’re located a little outside my usual area, reach out — I’d love to make something beautiful with you.
