Hello and welcome! I’m Jen, a Washington DC documentary newborn photographer dedicated to capturing the real, unposed story of your baby’s earliest days. My photography is natural, authentic, and timeless — preserving the quiet moments, tiny details, and genuine connections that make your newborn’s story uniquely beautiful.
With a focus on ease and comfort, I bring the session to your home, hospital room, or both so you and your baby can simply be. No stiff posing, no stressful setups — just honest, heartfelt images that reflect the love, joy, and wonder of welcoming a new life.
My goal is to create newborn photographs that feel like memories: nostalgic, emotional, and true to your family’s story.
As a Washington DC documentary newborn photographer, I help families preserve every stage of their journey — from maternity sessions that honor the days before your baby’s arrival, to newborn photography in the hospital, to at-home lifestyle sessions that capture your family’s real story. My focus is on creating natural, authentic images that document this once-in-a-lifetime chapter authentically.

Jen was amazing and our photos turned our flawlessly! Jen did a fantastic job making sure we got exactly what we had wanted, and when we didn't know what we wanted, she professionally guided us into the perfect situations and poses that yielded some incredible candid shots! We had a very rambunctious toddler and yet somehow she captured every single smile, no matter how fleeting it was. Jen was a dream to work with, so professional and friendly, and we could not be happier with our photos.

Jen is a wonderful family photographer in the Washington D.C. area. Her calm, friendly and soothing presence put my whole family at ease during our newborn shoot. She was patient when our baby got fussy and needed a quick food break in the middle of our session. The final images came out incredible, capturing so many emotions, the little moments and gorgeous natural light! We also used Jen for our maternity shoot and she was able to provide an accessible pricing package for both sessions. I highly recommend Jen to anyone expecting a new baby or for a yearly family shoot to capture these precious moments.
