I want to hold space for you to press pause.
To slow down and be fully present with the people you love, in the season you’re in right now.
Newborn & Family Photography in Nashville
For families who want beautiful photographs and an experience that feels easy, relaxed, and connected.
The best photographs happen when families feel comfortable enough to forget about the camera.
When you invite me into your home, my goal is simple: to make the experience feel easy, comfortable, and genuinely enjoyable. I'll guide you when needed, but I'm just as attentive to the moments that unfold naturally. The way your newborn settles into your chest, the way your children pile onto dad for one more round of wrestling, the little in-betweens that often become the moments we treasure most.
There's no pressure to perform or create a perfect version of your family, trust that I'll notice the moments worth remembering. The result is a session that feels less like having photos taken and more like spending intentional time with the people you love most.
“Kailee was such a joy to work with! We invited her into our home for a newborn session, and she made me feel comfortable and at ease despite me being a nervous new mama”

Ways to Work Together
Most families begin with a newborn session and continue documenting their story as their baby grows. Whether you’re preparing to welcome a baby or simply wanting to preserve the season you’re in right now, these sessions are designed to grow with your family.
Signature Session
The Signature Session is where most families begin.
Designed for newborns, babies, maternity, and family photography, these relaxed at-home sessions create space to slow down and enjoy your family exactly as it is right now. We’ll spend the session creating images that feel like you, with none of the stiff, posed-for-the-camera feeling.
Baby’s First Year
Your baby will change more this year than any other.
Three sessions across your baby’s first year - when they arrive, when they start sitting, and when they start walking. So you can watch the whole story unfold. This is my favorite way to work: we build a real relationship over the year, and you end up with a collection that holds just how much changes in twelve short months. A story telling series you can go through with your little one as they continue to grow into the toddler years.
Video add-on
Add a film to any session and preserve the sounds, movement, and personality of this season alongside your photographs. Available as a highlight film for your signature session or a compilation film documenting your baby's first year.
MY APPROACHMost of the families I photograph first reach out while they are expecting or during those early weeks at home with a new baby.
My approach is a balance of gentle guidance and genuine moments. Every family is different, and I don't walk into sessions with a checklist of poses I need to recreate. My job is to pay attention. Some babies want to be held the entire session. Some families are playful and energetic, while others are quiet and affectionate. I work with your family as you are, creating photographs that feel polished without feeling staged.
The goal is always the same: photographs that feel natural, timeless, and true to your family.
Core Values
-
There is something meaningful about being photographed in the place where your life is actually happening. The nursery you carefully prepared, the backyard where you run around with your children, the kitchen where everyday moments unfold. These spaces may feel ordinary now, but they become part of the story you will want to remember.
-
No two families are alike, and I don'tbelieve every session should look the same. Rather than recreating the same poses in every home, I pay attention to your personalities, your relationships, and the little things that make your family yours. The result is a gallery that feels personal, not formulaic.
-
Babies need to eat. Toddlers make the rules. You may think you want a newborn session right away and then feel completely overwhelmed when the times comes and want to push a few weeks. I’m a mom too- trust me when I say- I get it. My sessions are intentionally relaxed and unhurried, allowing space for real life to happen without feeling rushed or stressed.
-
Most people don't feel naturally comfortable in front of a camera, and they shouldn't have to know what to do. I'll guide you throughout the session, help everyone feel at ease, and provide direction when needed. My goal is to create an experience that feels effortless while still producing beautiful, natural photographs.
One of my favorite parts of this work is watching
families grow over time.
Many of the parents who contact me for newborn photographs return year after year, allowing me the privilege of documenting their children as they grow up.
Whether you're preparing to welcome your first baby or simply wanting to hold onto this season a little longer, I'd be honored to document it for you.
