Newborn Collections

Welcoming your newest little love is one of my favorite things to photograph. My cozy home studio in Lake Zurich is fully stocked and ready for you, so all you have to do is arrive with your baby and enjoy the experience.

Best Time to Schedule Your Newborn Photos

  • Newborn photos are best scheduled when your baby is 5–14 days old for those sweet, curled-up poses.
  • The best time to book is during your second or third trimester so I can reserve space around your due date.
  • If your baby is older, still reach out—I’d love to fit you in if I have availability! I can often do newborn style photos for babies up to 5 weeks old.
