Joyful
Real (tiny) life, beautifully captured.
Newborn sessions with Manning Road Photography are calm, cozy, and full of connection — because that’s what these early days are really about. No complicated poses or fussy setups here. Instead, I come to you — your home, your light, your people — so everyone stays comfortable (yes, even your toddler). You’ll get beautiful, heartfelt images that capture the snuggles, the wonder, the sleepy smiles, and the way your world just shifted in the best possible way.
Images that remind you
exactly how it felt
to be in this chapter
of your story.
These moments are so precious and fleeting. In a blink of an eye, everything will change. You want to savor that feeling of wonder in these early sleepless days. Your story deserves to be told with tender, joyful, and honest images.
Take a breath
and stay here awhile.
I’m not just a newborn photographer, I’m a mom, too.
I know those late-night hours when the world is quiet and you’re holding your baby close. Their soft sounds, that sweet newborn scent, the way their tiny fingers curl around yours. It’s so heartbreakingly beautiful. You’re dreaming of all they’ll grow to be, yet wishing they’d never outgrow your arms.
That’s what draws me to newborn photography in Ann Arbor, I'm here to capture this season that’s gone in a blink. It's not just about delivering a gallery of images. It's about feeling your family’s story—every tender, fleeting, beautiful bit of it.
this newborn chapter is just the beginning.
