A NEWBORN
EXPERIENCE
Rooted in Connection

Elegant.
Romantic.
Heartfelt.

You deserve the kind of newborn photos that honor this fleeting, but unforgettable, chapter.

If you crave an easeful, relaxed photo experience that perfectly tells the story of your growing family. I’m so glad you’re here.

FAMILY CENTERED NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY

Those early days will come and go in a flash. Any parent will tell you that.

The newborn bubble is a hazy blur of:
gazing in awe at what you’ve created,
extra pots of coffee,
sleepy yawns (you + them),
feeding,
nuzzling that soft patch of fuzzy hair…
& ‘just one more’ snuggles.

Yes it’s fleeting, but that’s why newborn photos are oh-so-special.

Because when the newborn blur inevitably changes to tooth fairy visits, school plays, & 3 hr long bedtime stories… your photos will still hold those irreplaceable details.

A quick glance at your favorite frame, and you’ll be instantly transported. You’ll remember what it looked like, what it felt like. The teeny tiny-ness of everything. The quiet, stolen moments.

And my job is to treat every one of those moments with reverence, and capture what matters.

Love. Family. And your crazy beautiful life together.

KIND
WORDS

Timeless, natural photos, with a baby-led approach to each session.

My number one priority is your baby’s safety and comfort. That’s why I focus on baby-led posing, which means that your baby is positioned safely and allowed to move in ways that feel natural to them.

I use natural, light tones to give your newborn photos a classic & pure look, without overusing props.

All you have to do is snuggle your new baby, soak it all in, and I’ll take care of the rest.

A GLIMPSE INTO

the process

Once I receive your inquiry, we’ll get together on a quick Zoom call to see if we’re the right fit (AKA whether we laugh at the same jokes).

We’ll schedule the session for when your baby is 7-14 days old. That said, beautiful newborn portraits are still possible beyond that stage.

Together, we’ll plan the perfect session. We’ll discuss locations, styling, and prepping any sibilings. My studio wardrobe is full of stunning dresses, newborn wraps, and headbands. Complete your experience by adding hair and makeup.

During your session your only job is to relax, enjoy soaking up LOTS of newborn cuddles, and let me do the rest. Most parents visit my cozy studio in Westfield. I serve Indianapolis, Zionsville, Fishers, and Carmel with outdoor and in-home newborn sessions. We’ll get the perfect mix of those smiling shots and beautiful candid moments.

2-3 weeks after your session, we’ll meet in person or Zoom to view your images for the first time. I’ll help you select your favorites for custom artwork that fits beautifully in your home.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

the experience

From borrowing dresses from my studio wardrobe to designing custom artwork for your home—every detail is taken care of.

All you have to do is show up, create magic with me, & then bask in your loveliness – no stress.

Every Newborn Session Includes:

  • Client closet access – I offer a client closet of postpartum-friendly dresses. So you will feel both beautiful and comfortable while snuggling your baby. I also have newborn swaddles, charming headbands, and clothing for young children.
  • Hair and makeup coordination – enjoy in-home hair and makeup by one of my trusted artists.
  • Expert posing guidance – I won’t simply tell you to ‘act natural!’ You’ll never wonder what to do with your hands. I’ve got you (and your baby).
  • Personalized artwork design – All those digital photos just sitting on your computer? I won’t leave you wondering what to do next. I’ll help turn your images into art you can enjoy every day.

THE ALEAH GREGORY DIFFERENCE: IMAGES TO HEIRLOOMS

Heirloom Keepsakes

Having tangible, hold-in-your-hands photographs shouldn’t be something that’s hastily added to a package as a last minute afterthought.

The photographs are actually the whole point.

Hearing my toddler say “Mom, I want to look at my book again!” (the album with his baby pictures) for the 524th time never gets old.

His chubby little finger excitedly points to his Mom, Dad, and sister…all while my heart melts into a puddle.

Sitting with him and flipping through our albums is just one of those moments, you know? The kind that makes you pause & think how lucky you are.

That’s why I’m so proud to say that I custom design gallery walls that perfectly fit into your home (not a fake, mockup home), and I design bespoke heirloom quality albums for you to pass down.

I promise you won’t be left overwhelmed with what to do with your photos, or feeling guilty that they’re left on a hard drive.

I’ll help you turn your beautiful pictures into something that’ll anchor your grateful heart every day (even the not so perfect days).

about your PHOTOGRAPHER

HI, I’M ALEAH

I’m honestly *thrilled* you’re here.

And? I get it. You’ve probably got 17 other tabs open, trying to decipher which photographer is the ONE for you.

I can’t make that decision for you (or can I??), but I can wholeheartedly say: it’s not the fancy camera that gets the shots you crave.

It’s having trust in your photographer.

  • Trust that they can guide you so effortlessly…you don’t even realize they’re bossing you around (in the most fun + caring way).
  • Trust that they already know which photos you’ll choose to hang on your wall, before your session has even finished.
  • Trust that they deeply understand what it’s like to be in this season, and what it means to have it documented in a way that is 1000% you.

So, of course, I’d be honored if you were to put that trust in me. I’ll take the time to find out how you would like my art to document your story with the kind of elegant & heart-smiling photos that you deserve.
