Erie Newborn Photography
The Gilmore Family
On Location at Home
When I found out my boyfriend’s brother’s family was expecting their fourth child, I knew the perfect gift I could give them is newborn photos of their son. We made the three-hour trip to visit them for the weekend, also while planning to see (my first!) a Penn State football game (We Are!!!) and enjoy breakfast at our favorite joint, the Original Waffle Shop.
Wow. Can anyone say baby fever?! I was instantly in love with this little guy, and it made me melt to watch his family dote all over him, especially my boyfriend. He’s so great with his nieces and just blew me away with how sweet he was to his newborn nephew.
The beauty of on-location photography is that it gives me the opportunity to document the life of a family in a unique and meaningful way. My first on-location photo session at home was so amazing to experience. I was able to capture candid moments as well as more posed photos that highlighted the family’s connection and love for one another. From the outdoor location to the cozy home, this session was full of love and connection. With the help of natural light and the beautiful setting, the photos were stunning and truly unique.
I feel incredibly honored to capture these first few weeks for the Gilmore family. I know I’m a bit biased, but this family was so wonderful! Baby R. was so beautiful he made my job easy creating gorgeous images. I know that these photographs will be cherished for a lifetime. Here are a few of my favorites.
If you’re looking for a Photographer in Erie, PA who can travel to capture and share your story, you’ve come to the right place. I’m an Erie, PA native, but I’ve also lived in Cleveland, OH, Pittsburgh, PA, and Buffalo, NY. Photography captures real moments and true emotions. I want to give the viewer a different perspective by combining posing, documentary, and candid shots in each of my sessions. I will ensure that your galleries will have a tasteful variety of my favorite styles of photographs. I am passionate about capturing all of the details of your new baby and creating beautiful, timeless images that you will cherish forever.
One of the best parts of hiring a traveling newborn photographer is that you can just relax during the session. You don’t need to leave the house (which is such a struggle with a new baby!). If you have other children, they can be comfortable in their own environment, play and have snacks, and take their time to warm up to the idea of a stranger photographing them. And while I am photographing the baby, you can take your time getting picture-ready for those priceless first family photos.
I would love to travel to your location to tell your story of strength, romance, passion, and the emotion that ties you to your loved ones with my images, forever recording the most beautiful moments of love people will ever share.

FAQ about traveling newborn photography
Q: What do we bring to photograph your baby? A: Everything! Pretty much a tote filled with our professional, studio lighting, props, wraps, and outfits. We photograph your little one from the comforts of your own home.
Q: How do you even book the session without knowing exactly when baby will arrive? A: We will keep in touch A LOT as you get closer to your due date. Luckily, in order to get those newborn poses you want most, there is a two-week window we have to schedule everything perfectly.
Q: Wouldn’t it be easier to just find someone in my area to photograph my baby? A: It really depends on your goals, what is important to you, and where you live. Recently, a friend of mine a couple states away expressed frustration at finding the right photographer in her area. Later, she told me how awful her experience was with her chosen photographer. When you find a photographer you love, it can make more sense to go with someone you trust and a little bit of traveling.
