Pregnancy is a special time, full of excitement and anticipation. But for first-time parents, it can also feel a little intimidating. That’s why a studio maternity session is such a great way to pause, enjoy the moment, and create lasting memories.

Time has a way of softening memories. The way your baby fits perfectly in your arms, the tiny fingers curled around yours, the sleepy stretches—these moments fade faster than you expect. But a newborn session preserves them forever, giving you something to hold onto when those days are long gone.
Choosing the right colors for your family or maternity session is key to creating timeless and beautiful images. In Toledo, spring and summer can bring stunning natural backdrops—from lush greenery to vibrant wildflowers—making it even more important to coordinate your wardrobe with the colors of the season. With my guidance, we’ll make this process easy and enjoyable, so you can focus on what matters most: enjoying your family’s love and connection.
As a mom and photographer, my heart is deeply connected to the work I do with The Gold Hope Project. It’s not just about taking photos; it’s about offering families something they can hold on to, especially during times when life feels incredibly fragile. Recently, I had the honor of photographing a beautiful two-year-old fighter named Oakleigh. Her sweet smile, her spirit, and even her dog joining the session made it an experience I’ll never forget.
