In-home Newborn Photography on film
The Beginning of Everything
As a Seattle and Tacoma newborn photographer, I offer film-only, in-home sessions that are baby-led, calm, and centered on your comfort. We typically spend 2 hours together, with plenty of time for feeding, changing, and cuddling, and you receive a thoughtfully curated gallery of your baby, your family together, and the quiet in-between moments, with The Sonnet and The Ballad collections being the best fit for newborn sessions.

My Approach
Baby Led Pace
We follow your baby’s rhythm. If your baby needs to feed, we pause. If a toddler melts down, we pause. There is no schedule we have to keep. The point is to document you together, not to force anyone into a mood they are not in.
Support for Parents
I know how intense the newborn chapter can be. I guide you into simple, relaxed positions that feel natural. I quietly fix a blanket, move you toward the best light, and make room for your emotions and your pace.
All Newborn Sessions are Photographed on Film
Your newborn session is photographed entirely on film for a soft, nostalgic quality that fits this chapter well. The slower pace of film matches the pace I want for you during this time.
What to Expect
Before Your Session
You choose the Sonnet Session or the Ballad maternity and newborn bundle. You receive a questionnaire that asks about your baby, your birth, your home, and how you are feeling. This helps me show up prepared, without you having to explain everything on the spot.
On the Day
I arrive ready to meet your baby and your space exactly as they are. We usually stay in one or two rooms. You do not have to hide every sign of life. Some clutter and real living are normal and welcome.
After Your Session
You receive a curated online gallery with the best images. No piles of nearly identical photos. Just thoughtful frames that show your baby, you, and the beginning of this new relationship.
Add Maternity To Your Newborn Session
When you’re already planning newborn photos, it can feel like maternity might be “extra.” But this season you’re in right now is part of the story too. The Ballad Session is a bundle that gives you both one maternity session while you’re still waiting and one newborn session once your baby is here so the way you are holding this child in your body and the way you hold them in your arms live together in one connected story.
THE EXPERIENCE & Investment
“I didn’t feel like myself in those few first weeks…. tired, swollen, unsure. but somehow, Brooke saw me so clearly. These photographs hold so much tenderness. They remind me that even in the blur, I was full of love. And that is what I want to remember most.”
