First Year
The huge difference between your baby’s newborn session and their cake smash session is truly startling. That is why it is so important to capture every detail and the First Year Collection allows you to do just that. If you choose to enroll in the First Year Collection after your newborn session, you will receive discounts on your child’s six-month sitter session and their cake smash session.

The setup was simple and timeless with just the right touch of florals, and Sharon provided the most adorable outfits, which made the whole experience so easy.
The photos are absolutely stunning and perfectly capture her personality at this sweet age—we’ll treasure them forever."
"Sharon is an absolute gem! It has been 3.5 years since I found her and since then she has captured the most adorable and perfect pictures of my two sons and our family.
From newborn sessions, cake smashes and family photos, not one detail has ever been overlooked. Her process is seamless and she makes everything so accessible and easy.
She offers so many options for photo opportunities and has perfected a style that really is timeless! She was so wonderful with each of my children when they were newborns, that it made the experience so worth it! Couldn’t recommend enough!"

"Sharon is the absolute best! We worked with her for our maternity photos, newborn photos, and our cake smash one-year-old photos. Each time, Sharon is so professional and friendly, makes us feel right at home, and take the most beautiful photos. We are blown away every time! The client closet is awesome and Sharon really went the extra mile to find gowns that complimented me.
