Those first few weeks with your baby blur together in the sweetest, sleep-deprived way. You’ll spend hours memorizing every stretch, yawn, and tiny sound — but time moves quickly, and it’s impossible to hold onto it all. That’s where I come in.

No props, no baskets — just your baby, exactly as they are.
Because the photos that matter most aren’t about perfect poses; they’re about remembering what this season felt like.
Immediately I knew not only that I wanted newborn photos, but that I wanted Ariel to take them!
Our photos turned out spectacularly and the session itself was wonderful as well! Ariel definitely knows how to handle babies, much more than we did two weeks into becoming parents! Ariel’s super personable and made us feel completely at ease.
I honestly LOVED working with Ariel and can’t wait to work with her to capture more special moments in the future!”
