Grady's Studio Newborn Session | Grove City, Ohio Newborn Photographer

Paige reached out to me by email to schedule their second baby’s newborn session. Her baby was due in a few weeks and she hoped I still had some availability around her due date. I run my business full time and have weekday and (limited) weekend openings for newborn sessions. I was able to schedule their session within baby Grady’s first 14 days of life. Those first two weeks babies tend to be sleepier and easily curled up. This doesn’t mean I won’t schedule a session with an older baby. I have photographed older babies who sleep wonderfully during their session. Even if they are awake, it makes for beautiful portraits full of eye contact!

Meet Miss Lilly.

Lilly is a December baby so we snuck in a holiday photo.

Lilly seemed to love this look the best. Cozy, unposed, and pretty in pink. Look at that pout!

Lilly's reactions to this outfit. Oooo. Ahh! :)

Hey baby girl!

Central Ohio Extended Family Photography Session

Columbus Ohio Family Photographer

Ankur contacted me from out of state to schedule an extended family session for his entire family. A lot of them were traveling to Columbus for one weekend only to celebrate their father’s 80th birthday. They wanted to document it with a large family photo session with a summer feel. I was thrilled to schedule a session with them and we began planning the location and outfits right away.

The B family contacted me to schedule a summer field family photo session. They really wanted to capture their little family during the summer months. I was able to schedule them on the calendar and we began planning their session together!

Mom knew she loved the idea of a simple background like a field at sunset. I knew just the location - it’s the perfect spot for summer portraits. Whether you’re a family of three or a large, extended family with three generations, it’s the perfect spot!

Baby Shepherd’s mom messaged me through my business Instagram to inquire about a six month baby milestone photo session in my studio. She loved my use of a lot of white and simple setups. She asked if we could also capture a photo with her older son as well. I was happy to be able to schedule her so we could begin planning her session together!Danae, his mama, had some really simple and timeless requests. She really wanted to show off her baby’s rolls, eyes, features and even his little tush! I talked with her about all the setups and options I have for baby milestone sessions in my studio. She was over the moon to plan this session! She even drove from over an hour away to have these portraits taken in my Grove City studio.

Grove City Family Creek Photo Session

The P family won a family session giveaway I held when I reached 1,000 likes on Facebook. I was so thrilled to tell them that they won - you see, this family has been through so much. Between cancer battles, adoptions and more - they were truly deserving of this family giveaway! Mom, Stephanie, loved the idea of a true, Summer session. Flowers, a creek, and cotton dresses. I knew just the location to take them in Grove City! Gantz Park has a beautiful garden full of flowers, ivy and herbs. They also have a very shallow creek that is easily accessed at the park itself. There is also a really fun, newly renovated playground for littles to enjoy after they do a great job during the photo session.
