If you’re looking for a newborn photographer in Iowa City, you’ve probably seen a little bit of everything: props, poses, baskets, and digital galleries. And while there’s a place for it all, what I offer is something slower. Something softer. Something centered entirely on your baby… and on you.
This isn’t just luxury newborn photography in Iowa City. It’s a full experience that honors these early days, gently and beautifully.
A Place to Breathe
My studio is designed for comfort and calm. When you walk in, I want you to exhale. You’ve just had a baby, after all. You’re adjusting to life on the other side of birth. And in this space, you don’t need to rush, prepare, or perform. We go at baby’s pace. Feedings, diaper changes, snuggles – there’s time for it all.
Some parents even catch a catnap on the cozy studio sofa while I begin photographing your sweet baby. It’s that peaceful.
Thoughtful Wardrobe Styling
No need to worry about what to wear. You’ll have full access to the studio wardrobe, which includes over 100 carefully selected dresses in sizes XS to XXL, along with timeless, heirloom-style clothing for babies and siblings. I also have a curated collection for dads – simple, comfortable, and camera-ready.
During our planning appointment, we’ll talk through what feels most like you. Whether it’s soft neutrals, flowing fabric, or textures that feel rich and warm, we’ll pull together pieces that complement your family, your home, and your story.
Hair and Makeup, Taken Care Of
Feeling cared for and seen has a unique quality, especially in the postpartum period. That’s why I offer the option to book with my professional hair and makeup artist, someone who understands how to enhance your natural beauty in a way that feels like you – just a little more polished and pampered. You’ll walk into your session feeling radiant, even on very little sleep.
Heirloom Artwork That Lives in Your Home
This is where the magic truly lives. After your session, we’ll meet again to view your finished portraits and talk about how you want to enjoy them for years to come. Together, we’ll create something lasting, perhaps a handcrafted heirloom album that will one day live on your child’s bookshelf, or a custom wall gallery in the room where you rock them to sleep.
These portraits don’t belong on a USB in a drawer. They belong on your walls, in your hands, and in your heart.
More Than a Session
What I offer is more than a photoshoot. It’s a guided, heartfelt experience that begins well before the camera is ever lifted. From our first planning conversation to the moment you hold your heirloom album in your hands, I’m here to make the process feel intentional, relaxed, and deeply personal.
This season of life is tender and fleeting. Let’s preserve it gently, beautifully, and in a way that feels like home.
Ready to begin? Reach out, and let’s create something you’ll never want to forget.
