The newborn stage is tender, fleeting, and often a blur of sleepy chaos and deep love. These sessions are designed to pause time—capturing the soft details, quiet snuggles, and honest connection of your first days together.
With a calm, guided experience and a curated wardrobe ready for you, there’s nothing to plan or prep. You simply show up and soak in the moment—I’ll take care of the rest.
Because while this season won’t last forever, these photographs will help you remember exactly how it felt.

"I cannot recommend Chrissy enough. She was so warm and welcoming to me as a new mom. We elected to do a milestone collective for my daughter and the photos did not disappoint."
"Chrissy has photographed all three of our babies when they were newborns. I love her signature newborn package because it includes hair, makeup, and wardrobe for mom."
