When people hear “luxury newborn photography,” they often think of beautiful images. Of course, that’s part of it. But for me, luxury means something deeper. It’s about creating a calm, meaningful experience for your family while documenting your baby’s earliest days with care and intention. For parents on Long Island, luxury newborn photography isn’t just about how the images look. It’s about how the experience feels from the moment you inquire to the moment your portraits are in your hands.
The Experience
Every part of your session is designed to help you feel supported. You don’t need to clean your home or prepare anything. My studio is curated with soft light, cozy seating, and everything your baby could need. All you have to do is show up and take a breath. Whether you're welcoming your first baby or your fourth, you’ll feel completely taken care of throughout the process. As an aunt to four, I know how much these early days matter. I want you to enjoy them while I handle the rest.
Wardrobe & Set Design
I offer a full client wardrobe with soft neutrals, warm textures, and flattering silhouettes that photograph beautifully. You’ll have options for yourself, your baby, and even older siblings. Every detail of your session is styled to feel elevated but timeless. Set designs are simple and refined, using soft layers and delicate color palettes that reflect your style with unique and newborn-made props. Everything is chosen with care to reflect your family’s personality and preserve your memories with elegance.
Safety
Your baby’s safety always comes first. I use baby-led posing techniques that are gentle, supportive, and guided by your baby’s cues. Every move is slow and intentional, with built-in time for feeding, soothing, and breaks. The studio is warm and quiet to help your little one feel safe and content. With years of experience and a calm approach, I’ll make sure both you and your baby feel completely at ease.
Heirloom Prints
Your photos deserve to be seen and held. I offer handcrafted albums, matted prints, and custom wall art that transforms your images into lasting artwork. These pieces are designed for your home and your future, so your baby’s first days are always within reach. I’ll guide you through every step of the ordering process, including previewing how artwork will look on your walls. You’ll walk away with something tangible, meaningful, and beautiful.
Pricing Transparency
Luxury doesn’t mean complicated. My pricing is always clear and transparent, with no surprise fees or hidden costs. You’ll know exactly what’s included from the beginning. I believe luxury means peace of mind, and that includes a thoughtful, straightforward investment process. Whether you're planning for printed artwork, digital images, or a combination of both, I’ll help you find the option that works best for your family.
The Heart of It All
For Aoife’s parents, newborn portraits were more than just a session. After years of
trying to conceive, she arrived as their long-hoped-for miracle. Photographing her was a quiet celebration of everything they had hoped and prayed for. Every family I work with has a story that deserves to be told with warmth and honesty. Whether your journey has been long or unexpected, it’s an honor to capture it.
If you're looking for luxury newborn photography on Long Island and want to feel truly seen and supported, I would love to create something meaningful for your family.
