Newborn Sessions get me right in the feels πŸ₯Ή

So let's talk about how I do my newborn sessions.
There's always this feeling that a photographer is there to get the pictures done and leave and that's just not the case especially for newborn sessions. My goal is to capture the moments that don't need to look perfect but that should feel authentic.
It's not "hurry and get the baby to stop crying" so I can snap some pics, it's about relaxing and allowing the moments to move with their own natural rhythm and loving on these little precious ones. And YES that includes the moments of crying. So embrace the crying and relax, trust that I am not in a hurry and we are hanging out for as long as we need to get the pictures πŸ’•

Who would like to do more in town sessions? Because I definitely would!
The little town of Velburg was the home for the Garcias for three years and now as they move away they have a little reminder of their time spent in Germany, in the town they called home.

I've hiked around this area many times and always thought it would be a pretty location for a session and I finally got to shoot here. Shout out to Jenabeth for being the absolute best! Thanks for braving the muddy grass in the dead of winter with me.

You GUYS! I had the pleasure of shooting with this expecting couple and let me tell you how fun it was to be apart of capturing the beginning of this new chapter for them.

About Me.

Welcome to my page! My name is Mariah and while photography started as a hobby it has turned into so much more. I enjoy being apart of the intimate moments of laughter and shared smiles between families and the truly beautiful glimpses of raw love shared by individuals by being able to put these moments into photographs to be remembered for the years to follow. Life is a string of moments all woven together with the ones we love, the ones that make us laugh until we cry, the ones that hold us during the hard times, the ones that walk along us filling these chapters with stories and memories. My goal is to provide photos that capture that life in each session.
