NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY FOR FAMILIES READY TO TREASURE EVERY BEAUTIFUL BEGINNING
Serving Alexandria Families, In-Studio & In Your Home
Your Baby's Earliest
Days Deserve to
Be Remembered
From the cobblestone streets of Old Town to the quiet neighborhoods of Del Ray and Cameron Station, Alexandria families know how quickly life moves.
As your Alexandria VA newborn photographer, I'm here to slow that down, to capture the weight of your newborn in your arms, the curl of tiny fingers, and the way you look at each other in those first tender days.
These moments don't last forever, but your portraits will.
My newborn photography studio serves Alexandria families with a fully planned, fully styled photography session including professional hair and makeup for mom, a curated collection of flattering dresses, and a wardrobe for baby (up to 18 months).
Set in a calm, naturally lit space, every detail is designed so you can relax, feel taken care of, and simply be present with your baby.
Every detail, from the heirloom props to the soft, organic textures, is chosen to create portraits with a timeless quality that will feel just as meaningful decades from now as they do today.
GENTLE LIGHT, LASTING MEMORIES, CRAFTED WITH CARE
Whether it's morning light streaming into your Alexandria nursery, an afternoon snuggle in the master bedroom, or the backyard you've made your own, these are the spaces that give your newborn portraits depth, context, and meaning.
As your Alexandria newborn photographer, I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach.Unlike photographers who offer lifestyle-only coverage, I bring both worlds into your home: artful, posed newborn photography and natural, in-the-moment lifestyle images.
Your fur babies are always welcome too!

From First Hello to Final Heirloom,
It’s a Stress Free Process From Start to Finish

Pre-Consultation
Before anything else, we get to know each other. We'll talk through your goals, explore wardrobe ideas, and map out a session that truly fits your family. No pressure, no guesswork, just a genuine conversation.
02
Styling Consultation
Once you're booked, we'll schedule a styling consultation (in-studio or virtual). I'll help you pull looks from your own closet or select from my client wardrobe, then coordinate your family's outfits for a cohesive, beautiful gallery.
03
Hair & Makeup Services
I coordinate your hair and makeup appointment so you don't have to think about it. Arrive on session day feeling confident, pampered, and completely ready to be in front of the camera.
04
The Newborn Session
This is the easy part. Come as you are, enjoy the time with your loved ones, and let me do the rest. Alexandria newborn sessions are calm, unhurried, and designed around your family, not a checklist.
05
The Big Reveal
About 1–2 weeks after your session, we'll meet in-studio or on Zoom to see your beautiful finished gallery for the first time! I'll walk you through artwork options and help you choose pieces that belong in your home.
06
Delivery
The moment you've been waiting for! Your custom portrait heirlooms are complete. Approximately 2–4 weeks after your reveal, I'll arrange pickup or delivery, whatever works best for you!
A seamless, fully guided experience. All you have to do is focus on your new baby.
Frequently Asked Questions
I recommend booking your Alexandria newborn photography session during your second trimester, ideally around 20-28 weeks pregnant. Newborn sessions are best captured in the first 5-14 days of life, and my calendar fills quickly, especially for Alexandria and Northern Virginia families. Booking early guarantees your spot!
A Signature newborn session typically runs 2-4 hours, allowing plenty of unhurried time for feeding, soothing, and capturing every detail. Simplicity Sessions are approximately 30 minutes. Every Alexandria newborn session moves at your baby's pace, there's no rushing here.
Absolutely. In-home newborn sessions are one of my most popular offerings for Alexandria families. Whether you're in Old Town, the West End, or anywhere in between, I'll come to you, bringing my expertise, props, and full-service experience right to your doorstep.
Don't stress about this one! As part of your full-service Alexandria newborn photography experience, I offer a complimentary styling consultation before your session. You'll have access to my client wardrobe, and I'll help coordinate looks for your whole family to ensure a beautiful, cohesive gallery.
In addition to Alexandria, I proudly serve families throughout Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and Maryland, including Arlington, McLean, Springfield, Fairfax, and the broader DMV area.
Alexandria is a dream for outdoor newborn and family photography, there's no shortage of beautiful backdrops. Some of my favorite spots include the waterfront and historic streets of Old Town Alexandria, the lush green spaces of Windmill Hill Park, the charming neighborhood feel of Del Ray, and the scenic trails along the Mount Vernon Trail. For families who want something a little more open and airy, the grounds near Fort Ward Park and Huntley Meadows Park offer stunning natural light and gorgeous surroundings.

"I started with Stephanie more than 2 years ago for my first pregnancy shoot. I knew from that day she was the perfect photographer for our growing family. She put us all at ease and came equipped with props, gowns and a sense of calmness. Her talent is obvious when you see the pictures. She captures our hearts and souls!"
