Pittsburgh Newborn Photographer

For busy moms who want to feel supported, not overwhelmed during newborn photos.

Pittsburgh • Mt. Lebanon • Bethel Park • Upper St. Clair

Hi, I'm Kelli. I'm a newborn photographer in Pittsburgh, nurse, and mom of three. If you are anything like me, you want newborn photos that make you feel connected to your baby's first days & weeks again. Those days can feel like such a blur! I capture posed baby images and organic photos, highlighting the love between baby and their family. Long, sleepless nights can be a reality during those early days but don't let that deter you from getting Newborn Photos.

Here's how I can help:

Newborn sessions often take place at the studio so there's no house cleanup before an in-home session.
Client Wardrobe includes beautiful, flattering postpartum dresses for you to borrow during your session.
The Professional Hair & Makeup Artist will take care of making you look and feel amazing for your photos.

Creating Timeless, Organic Newborn Photos

Best Newborn Photographer in Pittsburgh, PA

LOVE NOTE FROM Sara

Kelli was very patient & kind. I love how easily she brought out the smiles & giggles from all of us. The photos of newborn baby are stunning.

the process

Inquire below to reserve your due date. Most families opt to have the session within a week or two of birth but timing is flexible. The session date and time isn't scheduled until after baby is born. Studio & in-home sessions take place in the morning. We'll plan out all details before your session!

Session day will be relaxed. Optional Professional hair & makeup and wardrobe for you AND the kids - I have it all! No need to worry about how to pose. You'll be naturally posed for beautiful photos that capture the connection between you and your little one.

Your gallery will be delivered within 3 weeks. You will receive a link via email to view your photos. Prints, albums, and wall art can be purchased directly through your online gallery print store. Printing from this photo lab ensures the best photo quality.

Frequently Asked:

Q: What do you supply & what do i need to bring?

My schedule has limited availability. I recommend scheduling your session as soon as possible, with a session date falling between 7-10 days of your due date. We can adjust the date as needed once baby is here.

Q: When Should I book my newborn Session IN Pittsburgh?

I offer a Client Wardrobe with beautiful dresses for postpartum moms. You are welcome to wear one of my dresses. I also have wraps, bonnets, bows for baby. You should bring anything you'd normally need to take baby out, including their pacifier if you use one. I'm always happy to include any sentimental items you'd like pictured with baby. You will receive a detailed guide before your session. It will provide styling guidance for the family & outline the specifics of how to prepare for your session.

Q: My baby was already born. Can I still get newborn photos?

Absolutely! I'd love to help if my schedule allows. Babies aren't as sleepy after the first 7-10 days but they are still as adorable as can be. My newborn sessions involve Mom & Dad. If baby is awake and fussing, you might expect to see more photos of baby being held and loved on rather than posed on their own.

You will receive an email with the link to your online gallery. There you will be able to view your images and download. You may purchase prints from the online gallery store. I will also send over the Wall Art & Heirloom Album catalogue. There are many beautiful luxury framing options. The Heirloom Albums are printed on museum grade paper & mounted and bound in your choice of linen or velvet. Gorgeous album cover designs are included. Please inquire if you'd like me to send over the catalogue.

Q: How Will i receive my photos from the session?

Absolutely! You call the shots. You are welcome to include the whole family for part of the session. I have some fun little tricks to get big brothers and sisters to interact with baby. The organic nature of my sessions lends itself to including the whole family.

Q: Can I include my other children in the session?

Q: How long is a newborn session?

My newborn sessions are typically 2 hours but I reserve more time just in case your little one needs some extra attention. I never rush newborn photos in an effort to support a calm experience for all.
