About Your Newborn Session

A close-up portrait of a newborn baby lying on a quilted bedspread, wearing a soft blue outfit and looking toward the camera with bright eyes and a gentle smile.

Celebrate your baby’s first days with a relaxed, natural newborn session that focuses on connection and authenticity.

Your session is gentle and baby-led — no props or costumes, just your little one exactly as they are. Jess will capture a mix of baby portraits, family moments, and sibling snuggles with ease and comfort.

Your job is to simply focus on enjoying the moment with your new baby while Jess guides you every step of the way through your session.
