What's included?

Do you wonder when the best time to take photos is or what to do with them once you get them? 

Do you have concerns about what you’ll wear or how you will pose? 

Are you self-conscious about the way your body is changing? 

Hey Mama, You were meant to shine

Hey Mama, You were meant to shine

I’m here to guide you through every step, answering any questions you might have. Together, we'll plan all of the details of your maternity session with a design consultation. You'll also receive a preparation guide to help with all the little details to ensure you are ready.

I hold a deep belief in the unique beauty of every pregnancy journey, embracing every curve and mark. Please feel comfortable knowing that you’re in a safe and respectful space. I personally retouch each image to reflect how you wish to be seen. The choice is yours, whether you prefer to be fully clothed, to showcase just your belly, or to embrace a full nude portrait. Should you decide to include any partial nude images of your body, rest assured, we respect your privacy and never share those photos without your permission.

Don't worry, Mama. You're not alone.

Families come to my studio for stunning maternity portraits that reflect the anticipation, love, and joy their new baby will bring. They leave not just with high-quality portraits perfect for sharing with loved ones but also with gorgeous pieces of artwork to display in their home.

You're welcome to schedule an appointment in advance with one of our hair and makeup artists or select your trusted stylist. The choice is also yours for either fine art studio or outdoor session. You get to decide what’s best for you.

Given the demand for our bespoke maternity sessions, my studio calendar fills up months in advance. I suggest booking early in your second trimester, so we can plan a session between your 28-34 weeks of pregnancy — when your belly is nice and round yet you're still comfortable for posing. You have to option of doing a studio session or embrace the light of the golden hour with an outdoor session.

I am so happy to have worked with Lisa for our maternity and newborn photos! Lisa is very professional and takes pride in her work, so I felt very comfortable following her direction for posing and even taking care of our son. Her studio is clean and easy to find. Our pictures came back in a timely manner and are absolutely beautiful. 

"You won't regret it!"

"If you find yourself looking for a newborn photographer look no further. Lisa is the one ! Not only will you have the most beautiful pictures of your baby you will also have the utmost professional experience. From the initial booking, to consult, to very clear directives on how to have your photoshoot go off without a hitch. My family and I enjoyed working with her from start to finish. The memories she gave us in these pictures will last a life time. Thank you Lisa !"

 Our experience with her was really amazing, would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking to get their newborn photo shoot done. Lisa was able to accommodate few requests from us post shoot and we are extremely happy with her service. She was really fast in providing the pictures post shoot, with no follow ups needed. Not just shoot but overall experience was really pleasant and had an amazing chat at the end as well.

"Lisa was professional and handled our baby with utmost care!"
