  • We specialize in:

    • Family photography
    • Maternity photography
    • Newborn photography
    • Milestone and motherhood sessions

    Our goal is to create timeless, natural images that feel authentic to your family.

  • Most maternity sessions are scheduled between 28–34 weeks of pregnancy. This allows your baby bump to be beautifully visible while you are still comfortable enough to move and pose.

  • The best time to photograph newborns is between 5–14 days after birth. During this window, babies are sleepier and easier to pose safely.

    We recommend booking your newborn session during your second trimester to guarantee availability.

  • Yes. We provide wraps, blankets, simple props, and neutral styling for newborn sessions. Our style is clean and timeless so your baby remains the focus.

    For maternity and family sessions, we also offer styling guidance to help you coordinate outfits.

  • Session length varies by type:

    • Newborn sessions: 2–3 hours (with breaks for feeding and soothing)
    • Family sessions: 30-45 minutes
    • Maternity sessions: 30-45 minutes

    We move at a pace that keeps everyone comfortable.

  • We recommend neutral or complementary colors, avoiding busy patterns and large logos. After booking, you’ll receive a styling guide with tips on what photographs best.

    If you’re unsure, we’re happy to help you plan your outfits.

  • Yes. We offer both studio photography and outdoor sessions throughout Louisville and Southern Indiana.

    Studio sessions are perfect for newborns and maternity portraits. Outdoor sessions are ideal for family photos, especially during golden hour.

  • Each session includes a set number of professionally edited digital images, with the option to purchase additional images or printed products.

    You will select your favorite images during a viewing party.

  • We recommend booking at least 4–6 weeks in advance, especially during peak seasons (spring and fall). Newborn sessions should be reserved before baby arrives.

    • Louisville, KY
    • Jeffersonville, IN
