"Called each of my six kids by name multiple times"
Kara is an amazing photographer. The images she creates are so authentic and unique. She's friendly and personal (she even called each of my 6 kids by name multiple times during the photo session!), great with kids, funny, and easy going. So happy we found her!
"Made us feel extremely comfortable"
Kara is the best! We had her come to our house when our baby was 10 days old for family photos. I was slightly nervous about taking photos and how the baby would do. He could sense her calmness and was a dream for the entire time. Kara was so easy to work with and made us feel extremely comfortable. She answered my million questions and made it such a memorable day!

Natural, Baby-Led Photography
I won't place your baby in unnatural positions or force anything, and there's no such thing as an interruption. Here are a few examples of the types of moments I love to photograph: An outfit change, nursing, rocking, time in the crib, bath time, and simple snuggly photos by the window.
And you don't have to stress about heading to a studio! I'll photograph your newborn in the comfort of your own home. But this doesn't mean we have to stay inside the whole time.
"Kara is so easy going and friendly during the session that it doesn’t feel overwhelming."
