"She found when she mothered her own way, she mothered her best way"

As your St. Louis newborn photographer, I promise to come into your home with compassion and understanding.The photos we hold most dear are the ones that tell the stories of our lives, and I intend to take care while documenting this chapter of your life.

When I became a mom for the first time, I realized all the cliches are cliches because they are true. It does go quick. They are only so little for so long, especially as fresh newborns. One moment they are snuggled up on your chest, and the next they are running around you in circles.

Newborn Sessions

BEGINNING AT $650

I specialize in lifestyle newborn sessions in my clients' homes. These sessions are filled with you all snuggled up as a family, and less about newborn posing. Newborn sessions are up to 90 minutes in length and include your digital images ready to download.

"Jacoby was amazing! I was a little nervous before the session given we have newborn twins and you never know how babies will cooperate! She immediately put me at ease and made me feel so comfortable. Not only are her pictures incredible - Jacoby was so laidback and down to earth! I will treasure the moments she captured forever. Cannot recommend her enough."

"Four weeks postpartum definitely wasn’t feeling tip top but she knew how to pose us to make me feel extremely comfortable and I felt like a thousand bucks. My husband hates photos but loved Jacoby and how personable and compassionate she was with our son. I absolutely loved the outcome of our photos and would recommend Jacoby to everyone!"

frequently asked questions

How do we book you?

How will we receive our photos?

Most of my families book their newborn session in their second or third trimester. I only take a number of "due dates" a month to ensure I can get your session in my schedule once you are ready. 

However, please still reach out if your baby is already here and you decided you do want newborn photos.

Once your baby has made their arrival, you'll simply let me know and we will pick a date that works for us all. When we book the newborn session is really up to you and how well you feel postpartum. Some parents feel ready 7-10 days postpartum, and some rather wait a month. Truly, the ball is in your court.

Photos are taken in the comfort of your home. Please trust me that you don't need a "Pinterest" home to get good photographs. If you don't feel comfortable taking photos in your home, I do know of studios in the area available for rental.
