Newborn & Family Photographer in South Dakota

Newborn | Family | Milestone

We live in a fast-paced, seemingly disposable world — but the moments that matter most aren’t meant to be rushed or forgotten.

As a newborn photographer, I help families slow down and preserve the earliest days with intention and care.

What I offer isn’t just photos — it’s an experience. From planning your session to helping you choose artwork for your home, I’m here every step of the way. Together, we create heirloom pieces that are printed beautifully and meant to last for generations.

Newborn Photography Portfolio

As a newborn photographer, I specialize in creating timeless, heirloom-quality portraits that preserve your baby’s earliest days. My studio sessions are calm, safe, and fully guided so you can relax while I capture natural, beautifully styled newborn portraits that will last for generations.

Milestone Portfolio

Milestone photography sessions are designed to capture your baby’s biggest firsts — from sitting up and crawling to first birthdays and cake smash sessions. These sessions are simple, timeless, and focused on your child’s personality at each stage. Whether photographed in studio or with soft natural styling, milestone portraits preserve the growth and joy of your baby’s first year.

Family Photography Portfolio

Fall family sessions in are some of the most requested portraits of the year. With warm golden light, open fields, and natural textures, these sessions create timeless images that highlight connection and the beauty of the Midwest landscape.

Photography FAQ Section

When should I book my newborn session?

Newborn sessions are best scheduled during your second trimester to ensure availability. Sessions typically take place within the first 7–14 days after birth when babies are sleepiest and most flexible for posed portraits. I put your due date in my calendar and once baby is born we figure out a date within that 7-14 day range.

Where do sessions take place?

Newborn and milestone sessions are photographed in my studio in Tyndall, South Dakota. Family sessions are often held outdoors during golden hour in natural locations around Tyndall and surrounding communities.

What should we wear for family photos?

After booking, you’ll receive a styling guide to help coordinate outfits that photograph beautifully and complement the natural South Dakota landscape.

Do you offer digital files?

While I specialize in heirloom-quality prints and artwork designed to last for generations, most collections also include carefully edited digital images. Digital Images can also be purchased a-la-carte.

Do you photograph business headshots?

Yes. I offer professional business headshots and branding photography in South Dakota for entrepreneurs, professionals, and small businesses.

How far in advance should we book family sessions?

Fall family sessions often book several months in advance. It’s recommended to inquire early, especially for peak season dates.
