Hi, I am Michelle


Thank you for your interest in my work and welcome!


I specialize in photographing maternity, newborn and baby photography here in New Bern, NC. I know firsthand just how quickly children grow up, and I recognize how important it is to capture these beautiful moments that none of us ever want to forget.


My studio space is comfortable, and inviting. Babies need lots of care in their first year, and you will feel right at home feeding and changing baby in the dedicated parent lounge, complete with snacks and extra diapers (and toys to keep the siblings entertained!)


The health and safety of all the young babies is my utmost concern. All blankets/wardrobe are washed between sessions. Studio surfaces are sanitized frequently. You will feel secure in knowing your baby is being photographed by an experienced photographer who wants to make your experience stress free and memorable, from start to finish.


Portraits are meant to be displayed and enjoyed. I take pride in offering several art products to showcase your babies portraits, and I will help you select which products best suite your home and style. All products are printed on the very best archival materials, to help preserve your memories for generations to come.


My hope is that all clients will have an unforgettable experience, and look back at their babies photos with a smile that brings joy to their hearts.
