Natural Newborn Photography in Anderson, Indiana

Babies are being born left and right over here and I could not be more excited to get to photograph so many cuties this year! I get a lot of emails from people looking for a newborn photographer who specializes in a more laid back photography style and I’m happy to help!

My newborn photography sessions are specifically designed to capture your new life — the cute, the silly, the quiet, and the loud. Each session usually lasts around 45-90 minutes. There are no hard time limits because babies do not work on anyone’s schedule but their own :P This allows us to take as many breaks to nurse or change diapers as needed.

Since we are doing more natural style newborn photos, I usually recommend scheduling around 20-30 days post birth. If you are being induced or have a C-section scheduled, we can set a date ahead of time, but you can so just shoot me an email after the baby arrives and we can usually find a date / time that works as well!

The Many Expressions of Babies

I love photographing newborns a little later than usual. They are so expressive and their personality really starts to shine through! Sometimes, we’ll just lay them down and watch all the different faces they make. This little one was very expressive and put the biggest smile on my face.

If you are looking for a more natural newborn photographer in the fishers, Indiana area then shoot me a message! I would love to capture your new addition just the way they are—the silly and the serious, the quiet and the loud. Parenthood is an adventure!

Sessions usually last about an hour but can go a little over or under depending on what is needed. I never rush newborn sessions just in case we need to take a few breaks to nurse or change diapers / outfits. I try to make your newborn session as stress free and laid back as possible.

I Am Not a Photoshopper...

The Michigan City lighthouse is a super important place to these two and they were really excited to get their maternity photos done around sunset to capture some of the Midwest magic that they so loved. However, Indiana being how it is, the weather did not cooperate. We got clouds and not a sunset to be found.

…so I made one!

I am not a Photoshop-er by any means. In fact, if you look real close you’ll probably see some armature mistakes if you know what you’re doing, but to us mere mortals, I think my efforts paid off! I am so glad that I was able to give these two the epic sunset on a few of their photos.

I’ve been photographing a lot of Maternity sessions this spring (there must be something in the water) so if you would like to book your own session feel free to message me! I photograph every day of the week and all of my sessions are all inclusive—so you’ll get travel to your location, an hour session, digital files, and printing rights. Maternity sessions are usually scheduled around the 7month mark and my turn around time runs 3ish weeks unless you need them early.

I’m looking forward to photographing YOUR next milestone <3

At Home Photography Session in Fishers, Indiana

One of the things I loved about photographing weddings for so many years was getting to photograph in a new location every week. Now I do the same with family sessions! I’ll come to you. We can shoot at your house, around your neighborhood, or even pop over to a local park. Your backgrounds can be even more meaningful when paired with the lifelong memories you create everyday in that space.

I photograph a lot of families before or after big moves. So if you just bought your first house…or are getting ready to sell your first house…consider booking an in-home photography session to capture the new milestone in your life.

In home family sessions can be booked at anytime for any reason. My photography sessions are always all inclusive, so you’ll get travel to your location, an hour session, full resolution digital files, and printing rights for one price. I know life can get hectic so there is also never a reschedule fee if something comes up and payments are usually made at the session unless prepayment is easier for you.

Let me know if you are interested in getting your next milestone photographed! I’d be happy to be a part of your memories <3

The Best Kept Secret in Anderson, Indiana

I love my (not so little) little town. Always have. I grew up here and I don’t really want to leave if I can’t help it—crossing my fingers that remote work sticks around for the long haul. One of my favorite things about Anderson is the trail system we have here. If you’ve ever had a family photography session with me, you know that I like to go for a walk and just take pictures as we go. I do this for a plethora of reasons: one being, it breaks up the monotony of a session so we can get kids in a good mood for longer and two, it helps to have a journey to focus on in between photos so there is less anxious energy for both adults and kids. ALSO, it means you get lots of different backgrounds during your shoot. We may even find something unexpected.

Like a lake.

This spot is one of my favorites to take people and it doesn’t get used by photographers very often so you don’t typically have to worry about a bunch of other people to be in the background of your photo :P That is one of the many perks to hiring a local photographer for family photos. We know all the best kept secret locations <3
