Why Choose me?

I have photographed over 2,500 babies! 
I have worked side by side with doctors, nurses and lactation consultants for the last 3 years inside and outside of my local hospitals. I am continuously taking newborn safety training to care for your little ones while they are in my hands. With my expertise in posing, artful lighting and editing, I am dedicated to producing beautifully styled images and heirloom artwork to preserve this precious time in your family’s life.

PRIVATE STUDIO

Clients love that I have a private studio on the first floor of my home. This means there are no interruptions during your session and you can make yourself right at home. I offer light snacks and drinks and a place to sit back and relax while your baby is being photographed.

TIMELESS STYLE

My photographic style is warm, natural and modern chic. I prefer to use neutral, soft colors and earth tones when styling your session. I often incorporate unique vintage and antique props like baskets and crates that I have hand selected from around the globe. These elements allow the focus of the photos to be on the simple and natural beauty of your new baby. 

PERSONALIZED 

Prior to your session, you will have the opportunity to provide set-up, color and pose preferences via an online questionnaire.  I also offer each and every client an (optional) design planning appointment when their proofing galleries are ready. so I can assist them in creating the very best wall and tabletop artwork that fits their current home decor seamlessly.

HIghly trained in newborn safety. fully Vaccinated.  practice all cdc health guidelines.

meet Marianne

Some refer to me as a Professional Wedding Crasher, others The Baby Whisperer.

I have been building relationships and delivering spectacular wedding experiences to engaged couples for the last 12 years. I have photographed over 200 weddings and have an extensive list of testimonials across the web. Go ahead and Google me :)

3 years ago, I decided that I wanted to specialize in newborns as well. I have spent the last 3 years working side by side with doctors and nurses in my local hospitals, as well as, taking private training with other of our industry's top newborn specialists to learn everything I could about these beautiful little people.

Whether you are looking to show off that new flashy engagement ring or celebrate the growth of your family, I am your girl!

MORe ABOUT ME

"She took her time, made sure to get all the shots we wanted and honed in on the style we were looking for."

MOLLY

Marianne was incredible to work with for our newborn photos. Marianne is a professional and it’s evident in the way she handled our little girl. The entire experience was enjoyable and peaceful (and that’s impressive when working with a newborn). She was also patient with me as a first time mom and I felt absolutely comfortable handing over my little girl to her. The pictures came out even better than we expected! She took her time, made sure to get all the shots we wanted and honed in on the style we were looking for. I know these pictures will be memorable forever and we’re so pleased with them!
