Why Booking Early Matters
There's a reason most of my clients reach out in their second trimester, booking early is the difference between a maternity session that feels rushed and one that feels settled. I limit the number of clients I take each month so I can show up fully for everyone I work with, from the first email through the final gallery. The ideal window for a maternity session is 30–34 weeks: late enough that the bump is unmistakable, early enough that you still feel good and aren't running on fumes. Reaching out earlier gives us time to talk through what to wear, what your session day will look like, and what kind of maternity session location fits where you are, from Seattle to Tacoma.

Lifestyle photography is unposed, in-the-moment work. Sessions that document how life actually feels, not how a photographer curates a moment.
I'm a Seattle and Tacoma lifestyle photographer specializing in the full motherhood arc, maternity, newborn, and the early years with baby. Sessions happen mostly in your home, at your pace, with no stiff posing or performing. The same care I have brought to my years as a registered nurse and a nanny is the through-line of every session and the part of this work that matters most to me. A Seattle-based lifestyle maternity, newborn, and family photographer with a passion for capturing all things motherhood. My work is rooted in meaningful connection and focuses on quiet moments, deep love, and the beauty of every season of becoming and being a mother. Through an intentional, lifestyle approach, I aim to capture images that feel honest, timeless, and deeply personal.
I'm Jeni.

"Jeni made our session stress free, easy, and fun. Not to mention we were obsessed with the beautiful authentic moments she captured of my three kids! The milestone photos turned out perfect and mean so much to me!! We now have our family session all over our home."
Alexa, Tacoma Family Session
"I was nervous about doing a maternity session, but Jeni made me feel absolutely beautiful and at ease from the second I walked in. She guided me through every pose and knew exactly how to capture the best angles. The final images are stunning and truly capture the joy of this season. I’ll cherish these forever."

"She made me feel so comfortable and beautiful (which isn’t always easy during pregnancy), and she captured this season of our lives so perfectly. The photos feel natural, emotional, and just us. Every single photo is stunning, and I already know these will be some of our favorite pictures forever."
