How It Works
Here's what working together looks like for maternity, newborn, and fresh 48 sessions in East Tennessee:
You reach out — Tell me what season you're in and what you want remembered
Reserve your date — Pay the session fee to hold your spot
We plan together — I'll help with styling, location, and keeping it simple
Session day — Go with my prompts, laugh at my bad jokes, and have fun!
Sneak peek — Get one photo you'll love within a few days (yours to keep!)
Pick your collection — Choose from two simple options after seeing your full gallery

What does this cost?
Every family and every season of motherhood looks a little different, so I keep my process simple on purpose. You don’t have to know exactly what you want right now—you just have to know you want this time remembered.
Here’s how sessions work and what you can expect to invest.
Experience Fee: $275 (does not apply to birth stories)
This includes:
A planning questionnaire and quick chat so I can get to know you/your family
Styling and location guidance (outdoors, in‑home, or a cozy indoor setup)
Your session time (45–60 minutes for most sessions, up to 2 hours for newborns)
1 sneak peek photo you keep no matter what
A proof gallery of your best images to choose from
Travel included for locations within 35 miles of both Decatur, TN (37322) and Cumming, GA (30040). An additional $2/mile is incurred beyond that radius. * The Heirloom Collection is required for the Gatlinburg / Sevierville area.
Digital files, albums, prints, and video are chosen separately through collections below.

Maternity and Newborn Sessions
These are the heart of my all my work—documenting the season of waiting and the first weeks of getting to know your baby. Maternity and newborn sessions are meant to be calm, connected, and real. We’ll focus on the way you hold each other, the tiny details you never want to forget, and the honest, in‑between moments that tell your family’s story.
Maternity and newborn sessions share the same pricing structure and collections.

Fresh 48 Sessions
If you don’t want full birth coverage but you do want those very first hours documented, a Fresh 48 session is a beautiful middle ground. These sessions happen within the first 24–48 hours after baby arrives, in the hospital or at home if you’re discharged quickly. We’ll capture tiny hospital details, first snuggles, siblings meeting, and the “we really did this” feeling.
Because timing is more unpredictable, Fresh 48 has its own session fees. Your photos are still purchased through the same two collections as above. After your session, your photos are still purchased through one of t he collections above, choose either Collection A – Digital Story or Collection B – Heirloom Photo + Video

Birth Story
1-hour radius from Decatur, TN (37322) only | Beyond 1 hour: unable to cover
Birth is powerful, raw, and intimately sacred. Having it photographed and filmed allows you to actually be in the moment with your husband, knowing someone you trust is quietly documenting the story as it unfolds. I offer birth photography and video for hospital, birth center, and home births in East Tennessee, including Knoxville and Chattanooga, when your provider and location allow.
My approach is calm and respectful—no harsh flash, no direction. Just steady, gentle presence so you can focus on bringing your baby into the world.
I had my own home birth, so I get it. I can be a complete fly on the wall when you want space, or offer quiet encouragement if you welcome it. Whatever helps you feel supported without feeling watched.
Just The
Birth
-
24/7 on-call coverage typically beginning at 38 weeks
-
Coverage from active labor through ~2hrs postpartum
-
75-150 hand-edited birth photos
-
3-5 minute birth film
-
8x8 custom birth album
Why the album? Birth goes by in a blur. Years from now, you'll want to hold those tangible memories—the first breath, the first cry, the first hold—not just scroll through them on a phone.
$2,300
Complete
Birth Story
Three sessions total:
-
Keepsake maternity session
-
Birth coverage (labor + delivery, as detailed above)
-
Keepsake newborn session
"Newborn" sessions may be scheduled up to your baby's first birthday. I know postpartum recovery + life with a newborn isn't always predictable. Postpartum depression, breastfeeding challenges, sleep deprivation—whatever season you're in during that first year, we'll photograph your family when you feel ready.
$3,500
You may upgrade digital stories to heirloom photo + video for a total of $4,100
