The Newborn Session
a nurse's heart behind the lens...
Central Alabama Newborn & Lifestyle Photography
Before I ever picked up a camera, I spent years as a registered nurse in Critical Care, Labor & Delivery, and Hospice. Those experiences taught me how sacred, fleeting, and worthy of remembering every season of life truly is. Safety, gentleness, and patience are at the heart of how I handle your baby.
I’m also a mama myself, so I know exactly how quickly these days slip away and how much you’ll treasure looking back on them. Add in a stint through law school, and let’s just say toddler negotiations with big brothers and sisters are basically second nature to me 😅.
Whether it’s soothing a sleepy newborn or coaxing a grin from a spunky sibling, I bring calm confidence into every session so you can relax and soak in the moment.
My goal is simple: for you to feel completely cared for while we create timeless newborn photographs in Central Alabama that your family will treasure forever.
What's included....
The perks when included
in a membership...
Your newborn session is designed to be relaxed, baby-led, and full of heart. Each session includes:
In-home lifestyle newborn photography — capturing your family in your own space. And no, you don’t need a Pinterest-worthy home for me to create a gorgeous gallery… I promise.
A portable backdrop + stand for heirloom-quality, studio-styled portraits of your baby
A curated selection of blankets, wraps, bonnets, and bows
Full access to my Client Closet for moms, along with unlimited personalized styling guidance
A fully edited gallery preview where you can select your 20 high-resolution images (with the option to purchase additional favorites or upgrade to your full gallery)
When booked as part of our Milestone Membership, your newborn session includes the entire gallery (typically 75+ images)—so every tiny detail is preserved.
The investment...
Single newborn sessions begin at $1,275.
Most families across Birmingham, Hoover, and Central Alabama choose to invest in our Milestone Membership, which includes 3–4 milestone sessions, exclusive member perks, and the full newborn gallery—a complete story of your baby’s earliest days.
Your retainer secures your spot on my calendar, and from there, you’re welcome to complete your balance in the way that feels most convenient for your family—whether all at once or in smaller steps leading up to your session.
Every detail of your experience is thoughtfully designed—from wardrobe styling and session planning to the way your gallery is delivered—so your investment feels as effortless as the memories are priceless.
I’d love to walk you through exactly how our Newborn sessions work—including all the next steps and how the process feels when you're apart of the 5U family, to every step we’ll take together.
Send me a quick message and I’ll send over our Motherhood Experience Guide, complete with full pricing information and all the details you need to feel confident and excited about all the sweet memories ahead!
