When you’re searching for a photographer for your newborn portraits at home, you want to know you’re in safe hands. Today I wanted to share just some of my professional biography with you on the blog.
In November of 2021, I was the Featured Artist of Inspired Magazine. (You can find the link at the bottom of this post.) Expertise.com named me Best Newborn Photographer in Miami, West Palm Beach, Ft. Lauderdale, and Boca Raton for 2021 and 2022. Prior to that they named me Best Newborn Photographer in Alexandria, Virginia from 2017-2021 when we moved here. And I earned my Master Photographer Certification in Maternity & Newborn Photography with NAPCP. You can find more stats and information about me here. I promise, you are in good hands when you choose me to photograph your newborn portraits at home.
Take a look at the newborn portraits at home below for just one example of my work.
This sweet Miami area family of four was a true joy to work with. The true highlight of it all was watching Big Sister be such a wonderful sister and incredibly sweet. As a mom of two, I connect deeply with watching your oldest become a big sibling. And lastly, how lovely is the nursery?!
