A Portland Newborn Photographer Worth Every Penny

You might be wondering…is it worth it?

Searching for and hiring a newborn photographer is a lot of work. You’ve probably emailed several photographers and waded through different pricing structures, product offerings, and personalities. It’s important to find a photographer who offers what you’re looking for and someone you feel you can trust.

Then prepping for the photos is a job. You need to decide what to wear, pack a diaper bag, and get yourselves to the studio. Phew!

Having big life events professionally photographed, like your wedding and the arrival of a new baby, are investments.

So is all the effort and expense worth it?

Time and time again, I hear from my clients that it is, indeed, worth every effort and every penny. Here’s what my client, Brigitte had to say:

With our session date and time scheduled with Katie, I felt so relieved. I knew we would capture our baby at the perfect time.
I was a little hesitant because I wasn’t sure if it would be worth the cost. It was totally worth it, though.
He was five days old, and she was so good with him. A natural with babies for sure! He was so happy and content; he slept the whole time! Katie was warm and inviting, treating my baby like he was her own. She made a genuine effort to get to know my husband and me by asking questions and sharing about her own life.
Once I got our newborn photos back and shared them with friends and family, they said: He was so tiny!! You’re so smart to have captured him at such a young age. He’ll never be that small again!
I will definitely think of Katie for our next family photos!!

One of the best parts about photography? It’s a return ticket to the first sweet but blurry days of meeting your new baby. It’s a time that we’ll never relive, except through photos like these.

You won’t regret investing in the memories of your baby.

My name is Katie, and I’ve been photographing newborns for over 13 years now. I have a newborn photography studio that is located in Salem, Oregon. It’s a quick 45 min drive south of Portland, Oregon. If you are looking for a Portland newborn photographer, I hope you’ll consider my studio!

Don’t hesitate to contact me if you are interested in booking a newborn session. Let me know your due date so I can make sure I have availability that month. I look forward to hearing from you!

These precious photos are from Miles’s newborn session at my studio 45 min south of Portland, Oregon.

He was the King of Expressions, wouldn’t you say?! Mom and dad weren’t ready to be photographed, but they did request to include hands – I’m ALL about that!

If your baby is awake during their newborn session, I will for sure photograph them with their eyes open. These are often some of the parents’ favorites.
