Book your sunset session

As the sun sets and with the golden light surrounding you, we’ll capture you in a wide-open setting so your beauty has the space to shine through. Whether it’s by the water or in wide-open fields, these are the photos you’ll one day show your kids! I’ll be there to capture your natural beauty and guide the moments as needed. Dad and siblings are welcome to join!

Sunset Sessions

Filled with natural light, in-studio sessions create a sense of ease. Without the variable of weather or travel, all that’s left for you to do is enjoy and have fun (especially if you bring along your spouse, children or pets)! Plus, our studio has a clean setting that allows your final gallery to feel classic while still creating space for playful images full of emotion.

Mini Sessions To Capture The Big Moments

St. Louis Photography Mini Sessions


Of course! This is a journey that you’ve embarked on together. While most of the session will be focused on you, we can bring them in for a few frames to capture this new chapter you’ve begun as a couple.


Can my partner come too?

I absolutely recommend taking this opportunity to embrace your glow and treat yourself to a spa day – because you deserve it! And to make it that much easier, my studio is located right next to a top-notch hair salon.

Should I get my hair and makeup done for the session?

Great question! We recommend booking your session within the third trimester of your pregnancy, but before you get too close to your due date. This way your energy levels are still high, and your bump is the star of the show. (This means we recommend inquiring for your session soon so we can get the best date possible!)


How far along should I schedule my maternity photos?

Definitely! In fact, I offer all-inclusive packages covering maternity sessions all the way through the first year for the important milestones of your little one’s life. Learn more about St. Louis newborn photography and my approach here. (Not to mention, maternity sessions are discounted when booked with newborn packages!)

Can I book a newborn session with you too?
