dream portrait session

Let's create your

dream session

This is not your typical in and out photo session! I take pride in first getting to know you personally, then making sure that you are well taken care of through every stage of the experience. Your comfort, your child's safety, and providing high quality, heirloom artwork are just a few of our core values as a studio. We can't wait to serve you.

The most personalized
portrait experience, ever.

A PERSONALIZED PORTRAIT EXPERIENCE

All of our canvases are professionally printed on 400 gsm cotton- poly blend fabric with a standard archival value of 100 years.

CANVAS

Heirloom quality artwork

All of our prints have a standard archival value of 100 years in home display, or 200 years in dark storage. All prints are finished with a lustre coating to prevent fading and finished with a linen texture.

PRINTS

Our handcrafted keepsake boxes include professional 8x10 prints matted to 11x14 on museum grade, acid wicking mats. These are popular for their versatility as they can be displayed in your home in the box or individually framed.

COLLECTIONS

ARCHIVAL PRODUCTS FOR YOUR HOME

Years after your session, I don't want you to be searching through lost files for your gallery (or worse, looking for files that have since corrupted). Rather, imagine your home filled with lasting, archival artwork of your family. Whether it's a stunning portrait hanging on the wall or an album to flip through on your coffee table, you’ll be able to look back at these images for years after they were taken to see how you and your family have grown. You'll get the matching digital file with each product purchased as well, but I promise that in 10 years you will appreciate the printed artwork more than anything else.

Sarah was super helpful and great to work with. She was able to get some great pictures of our newborn and we were very happy with the results! Sarah was also very personable and welcoming, making both my wife and I feel at ease with someone working with our 10 day old. I would gladly recommend her to anyone who asked!

We just had family photos done with Sarah, and I am blown away. She was amazing with our two kids - so patient and engaging - and she got the most beautiful shots of our family! I was shocked at how good they turned out. She’s a 10/10 and we will definitely be booking her again in the future!

We love Sarah! She is an amazing photographer, we have used her for the past 4 years for our family pictures. We will continue to use her in the future. She is patient, and great with kids!

We absolutely love all the pictures that Sarah has done for us! From maternity pictures to our first Christmas mini photo shoot she is absolutely amazing!

Sarah was amazing! Our son was cranky from a long day and somehow she managed to get him to smile and throw in an occasional giggle! Thank you for a great session!

Sarah did an amazing job! She made sure to get all the detail shots we asked for and helped us feel super comfortable.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I book a newborn session if I don't know when my baby will arrive?
Together, we will select a tentative session date that falls within approximately 1-2 weeks of your due date. Then when baby arrives, I ask that you reach out within a day or two of delivering so that we can solidify a date and time for your session. I only take on a limited amount of due dates per month to ensure availability for all of my newborn clients, including early or late babies.

I want to book an outdoor session, but what if the weather doesn't cooperate?
Rest assured that I only take on a set amount of outdoor sessions per month to ensure flexibility for rescheduling due to inclement weather. If the date that you booked ends up being a rainy day, I will be in touch the night before your session to discuss alternative dates. It's also an option to switch to a studio session if you prefer that option.

I'm currently pregnant, when is the best time to schedule newborn portraits?
In short, as soon as possible! Even if you're on the earlier end of your pregnancy, our available dates tend to fill up quickly so I recommend reaching out as soon as possible.

Do your packages include digital images?
Yes they do, but they aren't our primary focus. When I was a new mom, I had the best intentions of printing, displaying, and creating albums of my daughters when they were babies. But as the day to day reality of motherhood hit, I never got around to it and felt a lot of guilt because of it. For this reason, it is my mission to not only create beautiful portraits for mothers, but also to print their artwork for them to be displayed beautifully in their homes for years to come. All of our pieces hold an archival value of 100 years or longer, and we've searched the world for the highest quality products for you to bring home with you. You don't have to worry about DIY'ing your prints and hoping they come out well, or feel the guilt of not doing them at all. It's a win-win :)

How long does it take to receive my images?
Your ordering appointment will take place the same day as your session, where you will be able to select your favorites and place your order. About 1-2 weeks later, you will receive the gallery of selected digital images and about 4-6 weeks later, you will pick up your products at the studio.

Where is your studio located?
The address of my studio is 21 Elm St., East Aurora, NY 14052
