I love photographing newborns. Every family is different. Every session tells its own story. For many Indian families, tradition is a big part of that story. From the colors to the clothing to the customs, these details matter. I understand that, and I’m here to make sure they’re included in your baby’s first portraits. Timing […]

I often get asked: “Can we schedule our newborn session date in advance?” The answer—nope, and here’s why. Birth Is Unpredictable Even if you have a scheduled induction or C-section, things can change. Inductions can take 6 hours… or 3 full days. Sometimes babies come earlier.

As a kid, I had big dreams. Not of becoming a photographer—but of owning my own daycare. I spent hours sketching my imaginary building, complete with twisty slides from the second story to the first, ball pits, climbing walls, and bright spaces filled with laughter.

No surprise there—both mom and dad have stunning blue eyes too. This family made my job easy. We started with a few wrapped poses to help […]

As an Indianapolis newborn photographer with years of experience, I’ve developed a workflow that works. It’s structured, consistent, and designed to keep newborn sessions smooth and stress-free for everyone—especially baby. Every family who books a session with me gets a pre-session questionnaire. This helps me understand what they’re looking for—specific colors, family heirlooms, poses, or […]
