photography that you can FEEL
The Lulu Belle
Experience
Newborn sessions have my whole heart! There’s nothing more magical than preserving those tiny, perfect details because by the time you get your images back, your sweet baby will already have changed. Newborn photography lets you step back into these fleeting, precious days anytime you need to remember.
When you walk into my studio, you can fully relax. With 20 years of experience soothing and photographing newborns, I create a warm, tranquil space where your baby leads the way. I’ll handle every moment with care, prioritizing your little one’s comfort and safety above all else. Even if that means skipping poses or going completely with the flow. My sessions are family-focused, capturing the real, raw love that ties you all together.
This isn’t just about beautiful images (though you’ll have those too); it’s about walking away with a memory you’ll hold close forever. A memory of feeling seen, cared for, and deeply connected to the people you love most.
A calm and cozy experience rooted in love and connection

A few weeks before your due date, I send you a questionnaire. You can tell me all about your nursery, colors you love, poses and set-ups you're really hoping to get, etc.
It's session day!! Newborn sessions tend to last 1.5-2 hours. Once the session starts, your job is to grab a snack, kick back and enjoy the show.
After our session, we'll cozy up and dive right into the magic we just created. If you're anything like me, instant gratification is key! Together, we'll handpick your favorites on the spot. Once you've made your selections, your polished gallery will land in your inbox within three weeks, each image meticulously edited to perfection.

Common FAQs
Q: How long have you been a photographer?
A: In 2002, I took a darkroom class in highschool! It was love at first click for me. I started photographing my twin baby sisters and it was at that time that I realized just how fast babies change. I felt the need to document all their little features. I then worked for a chain portrait studio in Greece, NY for several years until I finally worked up the courage to go off on my own. I opened Lulu Belle in 2013 have never looked back!
Q: What if baby won't sleep??
A: I always say, your baby is the boss that day. We can't make babies do anything. If your baby won't sleep, that's perfectly ok! We can still get amazing and beautiful images of your baby.
Q: Are weekends or evenings available?
A: Weekends are reserved for family time. Evenings are unavailable as well. Have you ever heard of witching hour for newborns? They get cranky and less sleepy as the day goes on. It's for this reason that we do mornings only. Evenings for Maternity session are available for outdoor sessions only.
Q: what do i bring?
A: Yourselves and a way to feed baby. I supply everything else! Hats, headbands, outfits, oh my! If there is an heirloom item you wish to incorporate, you may bring it. I ask that those items be limited to two. Outfits and gifted props can be very hard to work with and often deter me from my workflow and style, which is why you're here :)
