Welcome! I'm thrilled you're considering booking a session with me, your local family, maternity, and newborn photographer in Aurora, Colorado. As a lifestyle photographer, my goal is to capture authentic, real-life moments in a natural and relaxed way. I focus on telling your unique story through candid and heartfelt images that reflect genuine emotions and connections. While I'll include a few posed, traditional shots where everyone is looking at the camera, the majority of our time together will be spent capturing those candid, heartfelt moments that truly tell your story. My aim is to make your experience smooth and enjoyable. Here’s what you can expect when you choose to work with me.
Pick Your Photography Package
The first step is selecting the perfect package for your needs. Whether it's a family session, maternity photoshoot, or capturing those precious newborn moments, I offer a variety of options tailored to your needs.

Once you've picked your package, I’ll provide you with a list of beautiful location options in Aurora and surrounding areas that align with your vision.
Choosing the Perfect Time for Your Shoot
Outdoor Shoots: For outdoor sessions, I schedule shoots one hour before sunset, during what’s known as golden hour. This time of day provides the most flattering light, creating a warm, golden glow that enhances the natural beauty of the photos. The softer light also helps to reduce harsh shadows and highlights, giving a more even and natural look to your images.
Indoor Shoots: For indoor sessions, I start at 10am. This timing ensures that we have plenty of natural light streaming in, which is ideal for capturing bright and vibrant images.
Securing Your Photography Booking
After choosing your package and location, secure your booking with a non-refundable retainer fee. This fee locks in your date on my calendar. It’s deducted from your final balance—no hidden costs, just a guaranteed spot.
session Contract
Next, we’ll finalize a contract, an essential part of our agreement. This document outlines all the details of your session, including expectations and requirements, providing clarity and protection for both parties. With everything in writing, you can feel confident and secure about our time together.
Preparing for Your Photography Session
Depending on the type of session—whether family, maternity, or newborn—I will send you detailed information on how to prepare. This includes tips on what to bring, how to get the kids ready, and prepare your home.
One crucial aspect of your session is outfit choice. I encourage open communication about what you plan to wear. Choosing the right outfits can significantly impact the overall look and feel of your photos. Coordinated outfits that reflect your style and complement the session’s setting will enhance the visual harmony of your images. I’m here to provide guidance on color schemes, patterns, and styles to help you select outfits that not only look great but also ensure you and your family feel confident and comfortable. Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or for suggestions—my goal is to help you achieve the best possible results and ensure everyone looks and feels their best.
I’m excited to work with you to create beautiful memories that you’ll cherish forever. Let’s get started!
