She did our newborn session and was absolutely amazing to work with. She made us feel completely comfortable and was so patient and gentle with our little man. Her photos are beautiful! We will definitely be using Kara again!!

They allow us to hold onto the fleeting moments that pass by too fast, giving us a way to revisit the joy and love that fills our lives.

Newborn FAQ's

When is the best time to book a newborn session?
I recommend reaching out during your second or third trimester to reserve a spot. We’ll schedule the session once baby arrives—ideally in the first 2-3 weeks.

Do you come to our home?
Yes! I specialize in relaxed, natural newborn sessions either in your home or outside if the weather’s warm. I bring everything we need and keep it simple and low-stress.

What if my baby is fussy or doesn’t sleep?
Totally normal! I follow baby’s lead and take breaks as needed. Some of the sweetest moments come from just letting baby be themselves.

Can siblings or pets be included?
Absolutely. I love including big brothers, sisters, and fur babies in your session!
