I specialize in bringing the essence of your family to life through natural, unposed photography. No frills, no fuss – just real moments, beautifully captured. My approach is all about using the beauty and simplicity of your own home, where you and your newborn feel completely at ease, to document the early days with you brand new baby with authenticity and warmth.
Bay Area Lifestyle Newborn Photographer
"We had an absolutely great experience working with Emily. She was so flexible and relaxed which made someone who is very shy, feel much more comfortable. We booked Emily for our maternity and newborn photographs and we were not disappointed. She took the time to get a feel of what we wanted in our photos and allowed us time to get comfortable as well as tend to our baby as needed. We really wanted to incorporate our dog into our newborn photos and she had no problem finding the perfect way to capture all of us.”

I primarily shoot on-location either outdoors for maternity sessions, or in-home for newborn sessions. However, if you are interested in a studio session for either maternity or newborn, I have two studios that I rent out on an hourly basis either in the East Bay or San Francisco. Studio sessions are great if you are interested in an intimate maternity session, or would like a space other than your home for newborn. You can let me know on your inquiry if you are interested in a studio session

For outdoor sessions think movement My photography style will have you moving around a lot. Make sure to wear something you are comfortable moving in. Flowy skirts or dresses photograph beautifully because we can play with the movement of them. Bringing options for accessories such as hats or jackets. For newborn sessions, think comfort. You deserve to feel the most relaxed and comfortable during your session. Neutrals compliment all skin tones and are the easiest to coordinate too! Check out more here!

I can't tell you how many times I have heard this! I promise that I am a little awkward in photos too...but my goal for your session is for you to feel relaxed, and the way I help you with that is through some gentle guidance and fun prompts to get all the goodness! It will be magic!!

I deliver a full gallery of 80+ digital images for every full session. That means if you book my maternity & newborn session package you will get two galleries each 80+ images. I deliver a combination of color and black and white edits, which are all yours to download!
Maternity sessions should be scheduled 1-2 months in advance for when you are at 30-34 weeks. This is when you are likely still very comfortable in your body, but that baby bump is bumpin'. Newborn sessions should be scheduled once you hit your second trimester and the session takes place anytime after baby arrives! I hold your due date on my calendar to ensure space
