Document the waiting and the arrival


There is something powerful about holding both chapters together—the anticipation before baby arrives and the tender, blurry first days after. The Bump-to-Baby collection is designed for families who already know they want both stories documented and want the experience to feel simple, cohesive, and beautifully guided from the beginning.

Instead of booking two completely separate sessions with two different planning processes, you have one clear path. One photographer. One visual style. One relationship built from the first conversation through your newborn gallery.


One photographer for both sessions • Cohesive gallery feel • Simpler planning • Optional film available

Best for families who already know they want both maternity and newborn documented without planning everything twice.


Reserve during pregnancy once, and I’ll guide both sessions step by step.

How the timing works


Most maternity sessions happen between 28 and 34 weeks. For the newborn session, I reserve space around your due date and then confirm the exact timing once baby arrives. That means you can plan early without needing to know every detail in advance.

Why families choose it


Booking both sessions together creates continuity. By the time your newborn session arrives, you already know how I work, what the process feels like, and how naturally we’ll move together during the session. It also makes the final body of work feel more complete because the story begins before baby is here.
