Taking the utmost care with your little one, I gently pose your baby in a variety of safe and comfortable positions that highlight how tiny, sweet and innocent your precious bundle is. Sessions are always led by baby’s temperament and comfort level. I provide generous amounts of time to allow for nursing and settling; to help support the breastfeeding and bonding process that is just beginning to establish.
Newborn sessions are ideally booked 2-3 months before your due date (use your due date to reserve your spot on the calendar, with a firm date set once baby is born). Your edited gallery of high resolution images will be delivered approximately 2 weeks after your session, from which you’ll be able to select your favorite images, and order birth announcements, prints and custom designed albums.

Having your labour and birth professionally documented is an investment you will value forever. Capturing the moments you'd otherwise miss, or all too quickly forget in the whirlwind of activity that surrounds birth - forever having the moment you meet your baby to look back on is one of the most rewarding decisions you'll ever make.
As a previous medical provider, home birthing mama and passionate birth nerd, I have the medical background and practical knowledge to know when to be present in a beneficial manner, and when to step back; capturing the most vital moments of your birth story without disrupting it.
The process: Once you reach 37-38 weeks, I will be on call for you until baby is born. Photographic coverage lasts from when you reach established labour until a few hours after baby’s arrival. Galleries typically include 100-150 images. Reach out for full details!
“Out of all the photos I’ve invested in, my birth images are my absolute favourite, and if I had to choose, I would pick them 10 times over. I really thought I remembered the day but even looking at them a few weeks later, I was amazed by how much I’d forgotten. That experience was so magical and having the ability to reminisce back is so special. I got to see myself as pregnant as possible, I got to see my partner look at me with so much love, and look at our son for the first time.
You think you’ll remember those moments, but you lose them so fast. Even the first latch, I never thought I could forget what he looked like that first time he latched on. And I could never recommend anyone more than Stefanie, she was the perfect amount of fly on the wall and support person. Best experience of my life, all around!”
The perfect way to capture the bliss of baby’s first days earthside, and all those sweet womb-fresh details!
1 hour in hospital (or at home after a home birth)
30 lightly edited, high resolution digital images
Select props provided (wicker bassinet, simple onesie, bonnet, swaddle)
If documenting the everyday beauty of your life, in the comfort of your home, is more your style, a lifestyle session might just be your flavour. All sessions (maternity, family, newborn, etc) can be modified to include a more relaxed, in the moment and less posed approach.
