Welcoming a new baby into the world is such a beautiful, emotional whirlwind—and those early days go by in a blink. What to Expect During Your Newborn Photography Session in Benton, Serving the Shreveport Area, I’m here to help you slow things down for just a moment and preserve these memories with timeless, heartfelt images of your little one.
Whether you’re brand new to newborn photography or just want to know what it’s like to work with me, here’s exactly what to expect from a studio newborn session.
My sessions are completely baby-led, meaning we take everything at their pace. Fussing? Totally normal. Need to pause for a feed or a cuddle? No problem at all. These sessions are designed to be calm, cozy, and stress-free—for both baby and you. Plan to be with me for about 2 hours, giving us plenty of time to create beautiful newborn pictures without rushing.
All newborn sessions take place in my quiet Benton studio, just a short drive from Shreveport. It’s warm, softly lit, and designed with your little one’s comfort in mind. I provide everything we’ll need—from buttery soft wraps and dainty headbands to white noise and minimalistic props. My style is clean and natural, putting the focus right where it belongs: on your baby.
I lean into a light and airy style, using soft tones and natural light to highlight your baby’s perfect little features. The goal is always to capture images that feel timeless—photos you’ll still love just as much 20 years from now as you do today.
I’ve always had a passion for photography and telling people’s stories through images. But newborn photography holds a special place in my heart. As a mom to two (now grown!) kids—21 and 17—I know how fast those early days fly by. It’s easy to think you’ll remember every little yawn, every stretch, every sleepy smile… but time moves quickly. Capturing those first moments means you’ll have them to look back on forever.
If you’re expecting and looking for a newborn photographer in Benton or Shreveport, I’d love to chat with you. Whether you’re still planning or baby is already here, now is the perfect time to book your session.
