CLEVELAND LIFESTYLE NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY

i NEED THIS!

Your Cleveland in home newborn photos are a way to turn those hazy memories into something real you can hold in your hands.

It’s cuddling that sweet fuzzy head right up against your chest … and also constantly — constantly — washing bottles and burp cloths. It’s stroking their soft skin and marveling at how perfect they are … and also changing more diapers than you ever thought possible. (Like seriously, where is it coming from!?!)

When you’re knee-deep in newborn life, it can be hard to feel like it’ll ever end. But as a mom of two, I’m here to say it does. It does so fast, you guys. And you’ll miss this stage so dang much it hurts sometimes.

But whew, what a ride!


Bringing home a new baby is one heck of a rollercoaster

— MARA

"My older kids got to be their goofy selves throughout the entire session and she was able to use that to get amazing sibling and family pictures that have personality and love showing through.”

The most comfortable and smooth newborn session imaginable.

The short answer is: It depends on your family! I tailor my approach to what makes you feel most at ease. 

But I can definitely tell you what it’s not: it’s not super posed or swaddled into oblivion in a cold studio. Instead, our session is laidback, authentic, maybe even fun :)

When we’re together, the only thing you really need to do is love on your babies in the comfort of your own home. I’ll do the rest.

(And bonus: Dads are usually on board too. If that’s not a win, I don’t know what is!)

Which is why I offer heirloom quality prints, albums and wall art and include a print credit in each of my collections. Because this phase may be over in a blink, but your photos will preserve it all.

But there’s something very real about touching a photo and sparking a story.

I’d bet we all have memories of dinners at Grandma’s house, where the talk turned to old times and the photo albums came out. Was that your dad as a kid in a super weird outfit? It sure was.

Somewhere along the way, we sort of … stopped doing that. The prints went digital, and we lost a tactile way to remember.

— ANDREA

“She took the most beautiful photos of my family, including our newborn and our crazy two-year-old son who wouldn’t stop trying to hug her. She is kind, creative and incredibly easy to work with.” 

Mackenzie is a gem of a person and a magical photographer.

It’s a huge transition, adding a new baby to the family. So I am intentional about making your newborn session simple. You can expect: 

  • Clear, reliable communication so you feel prepared for your session
  • Guidance during your session, but always with your comfort in mind
  • Expert image editing and an easy-to-navigate online gallery for seamless ordering
