portland baby plan photographer
Is there any better way to celebrate this time in your life and the growth of your new baby than with photography?
From tiny toes to tentative first steps, every stage is worth remembering, and that’s exactly what the Baby Plan is designed to do.
You'll have a cohesive collection of beautiful baby photos that captures every stage, and one day, you’ll look back and say, “I’m so glad we captured that.”
Welcoming a new baby is one of life’s biggest, sweetest milestones.
"I'm so glad I signed up for the baby plan!"
Life with a baby is busy, and I definitely would have forgotten to schedule photos if it wasn’t all planned out ahead of time. Each session felt so easy and fun, and now we have the most beautiful photos from every stage. The album is gorgeous, something we’ll treasure forever!

Parents and siblings are included in each Baby Plan session.
All sessions take place at my Salem, OR studio, Monday - Friday.
Best of all? The Baby Plan includes album credit awarded at each ordering appointment. After your baby’s first year, you’ll be able to purchase a 10x10 hardbound linen album featuring favorite images from each session at a significant discount. It’s a beautiful way to preserve your baby’s first year in one timeless keepsake.
We’ll celebrate your baby’s first trip around the sun with personality-filled portraits. Think toothy grins, wobbly first steps, and all the sweet curiosity of toddlerhood.
Best time to schedule
Between 12–15 months, when your little one is on the move and full of expression.
Once your baby is sitting up on their own, it’s the perfect time to capture their blossoming personality. We’ll photograph them in the studio, focusing on those chubby rolls, belly laughs, and drooly, joyful smiles you never want to forget.
Best time to schedule
Around 6–8 months, when babies are sitting confidently but not yet crawling away.
your newborn session is all about slowing down and honoring this fleeting season. We’ll follow your baby’s lead and create simple, natural portraits filled with love and connection.
Best time to schedule
Within the first 7–14 days after birth, when babies are still extra sleepy and snuggly.
Start your baby’s story from the very beginning, with a peaceful, joy-filled maternity session. This session is optional, but it's a beautiful way to document the anticipation and love before your baby arrives.
Best time to schedule
Between 32–34 weeks, when your bump is showing beautifully but you’re still comfortable.

A keepsake you can hold
Top 5 reasons why The Baby Plan is a no-brainer
Between feeding schedules, nap times, and the mental load of motherhood, it’s easy for milestones to slip by. The Baby Plan is designed to take one thing off your plate: I’ll handle the scheduling, reminders, and session planning so you don’t have to think about it. You just show up!
Your baby will want to see you in these photos one day. The Baby Plan gives you the chance to be part of the story, cuddling, laughing, and connecting with your child in a way only a mother can. You don’t need to “look perfect." You just need to be present. (And don’t worry, I’ll guide you every step of the way.)
When you book sessions individually, the costs add up fast. The Baby Plan bundles the session fees, saving you money. You are also earning album credit at each ordering appointment when you book the Baby Plan.
No one ever says, “I wish I hadn’t taken those photos.” But moms often say they wish they had. The first year is a blur—and this plan ensures you won’t miss the magic of it. You’ll have real, tangible memories to hold onto when the baby days are gone.
When you book one photographer to document your baby’s first year, you’re creating a cohesive, connected story. The lighting, style, and feel of each session will flow together seamlessly, making your final album look intentional and elevated, not pieced together. It’s storytelling, not just snapshots.
