The first weeks of your baby's life quickly pass by in a blur of baby bliss and sleep deprivation...

They literally change daily and before you know it they're crawling and you're baby proofing then planning a first birthday...

It's unfair how it all happens so fast. Allow me to document this very brief time with your new baby while they're still tiny and immobile!

As a Pittsburgh baby photographer, I'm happy to photograph your baby at ANY age! It's ok if you did not schedule in the first two weeks or two months!

I LOVE to photograph older babies!

I promise your lifestyle newborn session will be laid back and relaxed. The last thing parents need to stress about is a photo session.

I take a very simple approach to newborn photography. Babies are perfectly beautiful and pure just the way they are. I do not use props and I won't pose your baby unnaturally.

Your session will take place right in the comfort of your own home and last about two hours long.

I'm happy to include the parents, older siblings, Grandparents, and the family dog in your newborn session!

"Mary Beth came to our house and the whole process was very laid back and comfortable. She captured the most BEAUTIFUL pictures that we'll treasure forever. I cannot praise Mary Beth enough for her work. I HIGHLY recommend her..." -Adriana

 

I include a print credit with my collections because I
want you to have professionally printed products in your life!
(prints, canvas wraps, books, albums, etc.)

 

Although I am happy to provide you with digital images, I want to create a photo book or album that your family
will want to sit and flip through for many years to come.

 

Let's face it, our lives are chaotic and as a busy Mom I know it's hard to
find the time to order prints let alone design and order a photo album.

 

Let me do the work for you.

Collections begin at $500

I believe in sharing all the details up front before you even contact me.

Reasons to book an in-home Newborn Photo Session:


#1. You get to stay comfortably at home!

#2. No need to rush to book your session so soon, your baby can be two weeks old or two+ months old! This gives Mom time to recover from birth and to adjust to life with a newborn!

Waiting also gives siblings more time to adjust to the new baby and they will be more comfortable around baby especially within the safety and familiarity of their own home. (read more about toddlers and newborn photos here)

#3. A lifestyle in-home newborn session is more flexible, easy and stress free!

#4. Your home, especially the nursery, is the perfect location with a unique "backdrop" and personal "props" (your very own blankies, swaddles, onesies, etc.) Your home is part of the story!

#5. We can include your fur-kids! (doggies and kitties)

The minimum investment is $700+tax.   You can find all of my pricing and collections here on my pricing page.

I photograph most babies around two weeks old, but it is more than ok if baby is 2-3 months old. Check out this blog post for more details.

It's best to contact me near the beginning of your 3rd trimester. However, I can usually fit a session in last minute if you contact me after your baby is already born. I'll pencil you in for 2 weeks after your due date.  We will set an exact date and time after your baby is born.  Check out this blog post for more details.

I am a lifestyle photographer and I do NOT bring props or a backdrop.  I prefer to use the items you already have in your home.  I find that using your own blankets, wraps, etc., and the natural background of your home make your sessions unique and special.

No, I do not have a studio. As a lifestyle newborn photographer, I shoot on-location in the comfort of your home.  And no, I do not put your baby in a bunch of fancy poses.  I prefer to allow a baby to naturally pose themselves.  You can read more in this blog post. 

Absolutely!  As a lifestyle newborn photographer, I include parents into a majority of the photos.  I want to capture that special bond and I believe a new baby belongs in the safety of their parents arms.  And yes!  I LOVE to include siblings into the photo session!  There is no additional cost for including parents, siblings or pets. I will also capture an assortment of images of your baby alone. And yes, I love to include the family fur-baby!  Only of course if I feel the dog is safe around the baby.  You can read more about that in this blog post.

Your gallery of edited images will be ready for viewing within 3 weeks.  However, oftentimes it will be ready within 1-2 weeks.

Yes!  However, I only offer maternity sessions to my clients that also book a newborn session.  Please reach out for details.

After talking to many of my past clients, I discovered that a majority of them were not doing much with their digital files.


Although I am happy to provide you with digital images, I want to create a photo album for your family that will last for future generations. A photo album that your family will want to sit and flip through for many years to come.

 

Let's face it, our lives are chaotic and as a busy Mom I know it's hard to find the time to order prints let alone design and order a photo album.

I also include a print credit with each collection because I want you to have professionally printed products on your walls
that you can proudly display in your home.
