FIRST DAYS || Documenting the tender Fourth Trimester

Bringing new life into the world is an initiation unlike anything else.

They say the days are long and the years are short, and while infanthood doesn't last, photographs do.

I approach these precious early days with respect for your boundaries and capacity. I shoot with natural light, and adapt to your own rhythms of sleep, rest and energy level.

From the freshest hours just after birth, to months or even a year with your baby; now is the best time to create lasting images.
