    If you’re not sure which session is the best fit, I’m always happy to help guide you.

  • Getting started is easy! Simply follow the banner at the top of the page to view my session packages and current availability.

    For my expecting moms: If you’re worried about booking the “perfect” date since babies tend to arrive on their own timeline don’t worry at all. When you book a newborn session, I simply reserve space around your due date (the date you pick in tentative and we can adjust if need be once baby arrives!)

    Most newborn sessions take place between 1–4 weeks after birth (and sometimes up to 6–8 weeks), so there’s plenty of flexibility. Once your baby arrives, we’ll choose the exact day and time that works best for your family.

    I limit the number of sessions I take each month so I can give every family the attention they deserve. Because of this, I close my calendar after 10 sessions per month, so booking ahead is always recommended!

  • At Hey Honey Photo, my approach is rooted in connection, not perfection. I’m not here to create overly posed or stiff images, I’m here to document the real moments that make your story yours.

    As a labor and delivery nurse, I have a deep understanding of the beauty, emotion, and vulnerability that surrounds pregnancy, birth, and those first weeks with a newborn. That perspective allows me to walk into your home or hospital room with a calm, patient presence and capture these moments in an authentic and respectful way.

    I also take time to truly get to know my clients. Many of the families I photograph become people I stay connected with for years watching their babies grow, welcoming new siblings, and documenting milestones along the way. It’s one of the greatest honors of this work.

    My sessions are laid-back and child-led, meaning we move at your family’s pace. There’s no pressure for everything to look perfect. Some of the most meaningful images come from the quiet in-between moments when you are feeding your baby, rocking them to sleep, siblings climbing into bed, or parents simply soaking it all in.

    In the end, my goal is simple:
    To create images that feel like your life, your love, and your story exactly as it is.

  • The best way to get in touch is through the contact form on my website. Simply head to the Inquire page, fill out the inquiry form, and I’ll respond as soon as possible.

    You can also reach out by email or Instagram if that’s easier for you. I love connecting with clients and answering any questions you may have about sessions, availability, or which package might be the best fit for your family.

    Once I receive your message, you can typically expect a response within 24–48 hours (CHECK YOUR SPAM FOLDER) 😋 this is so important! Some how I am getting flagged as spam, agh!

    I can’t wait to hear from you and learn more about your story!

  • My pricing is designed to be simple and transparent. Each session has a flat session fee that includes your time with me, the session itself, and a thoughtfully edited gallery of high-resolution images delivered through an online gallery.

    Because every family and story is different, I offer a variety of session types including maternity, Fresh 48, newborn, family, milestone, and specialty sessions each with pricing that reflects the time and preparation involved.

    My packages and current pricing are always available at the top banner of my website, where you can view details and check availability.

    To reserve your session, a retainer is required at booking, with the remaining balance due before your session date.

    I also raise my pricing periodically as my calendar fills and my business continues to grow, so booking early ensures you lock in the current rate.

  • Working with me is meant to feel easy, relaxed, and genuine. I know being in front of a camera can feel intimidating, so my goal is to create an environment where you can simply be yourself.

    Most sessions feel less like a formal photoshoot and more like spending time together while I quietly document the moments unfolding. I’ll gently guide you when needed, but I’m mostly looking for the natural interactions like the way you hold your baby, the laughter between siblings, the quiet moments in between.

    I’m also a labor and delivery nurse, so I’m very comfortable around newborns and new parents. Babies set the pace during our sessions. If we need to pause for feeding, soothing, or diaper changes, we do. There’s never any pressure to rush.

    Many of my clients say their session felt calm, natural, and surprisingly fun, and that by the end it felt like we had known each other for years. That connection is something I truly value, and it’s what allows me to capture images that feel honest and meaningful.

    My hope is that when you look back at your photos years from now, you don’t just see what life looked like but that you are able to remember exactly how it felt. 💛
