Sammi knew she wanted to have her maternity portraits at Filoli. It's such a beautiful place for clients who like both gardens and architecture. There are so many different areas to capture beautiful moments year-round.

It's so exciting to talk to families who are expecting a baby! Whether it's your first baby or there are siblings who will be a part of the session, it's always a special time. Once you fill out my contact form, I'll be in touch soon. The more details you provide, the better!
1. Say Hello
2. Schedule it
Once we find a date that works for both of us (the best time to schedule is between 30 & 35 weeks of pregnancy), I'll send you a contract and invoice for your retainer. Your session date and time are secured once the contract is signed and the session fee is paid.
A few weeks before your session, we'll meet (usually over Zoom) to plan all the details of your session. From location, to wardrobe, to timing, we'll knock out all of the details together. This meeting is so helpful to make sure we're on the same page and prevent so many back-and-forth emails.
3. ask me Anything
On the day of your session, we'll meet at the planned location and time. Some people are more comfortable in front of my camera than others, but take comfort knowing that however you feel, I'll help guide you with prompts and poses to look your best. If children are a part of the session, I make it very playful so that they can have fun too, and we can get those natural smiles.
4. Your Photo Sesssion
The most exciting part of the process is your gallery reveal! We'll have a virtual meeting where you'll see a slideshow of all of your beautiful images. This is also where we can work on wall gallery and album design. From here, you'll receive a link to your online gallery so you can download your purchased digital images right to your computer. You'll receive any prints or products you ordered right to your home in a few weeks.
5. your Gallery Reveal
Collections starting at $1500
To book a session, a $500 retainer and signed contract are required. You'll order your digital images, prints and products after you view your images in your online gallery about two weeks after your session. Your retainer will be put towards your purchase. Please inquire for detailed pricing information.
She can do it all and makes taking photographs a fun and memorable experience (even when your newborn won’t sleep or your toddler doesn’t want to take photos). Laura is so patient and kind and makes you feel so comfortable while taking your picture. Her new photobook and canvas offerings are also beautiful and of such high quality. I just cannot recommend Laura enough!

Laura was amazing to work with. From the moment we reached out to ask about her services, she was super responsive and professional in answering all our questions. She stood out from all the other choices that we were looking at because she made the process so easy and went above and beyond!!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Laura for our family photoshoot at the beach, and I cannot recommend her enough! She captured the most stunning, breathtaking moments of our family that we will cherish forever. From start to finish, she went above and beyond, making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. Her creative eye and attention to detail truly shine through in every photo.
Not only did she provide us with incredible photos, but she also helped us design a beautiful gallery wall that has transformed our living room. The final result is beyond anything we could have imagined, and it’s the first thing everyone comments on when they walk into our home!

The whole process was seamless. After selecting a date and location, Laura sent over some links on outfit ideas that she thought would work well with our location. She also took the time to get to know details about my children before the session so she could easily engage with them. The day of the session, she offered suggestions for different poses, but also fed off the energy of my two little kids.
