Raw Beauty Experience

The Raw Beauty session is a celebration of natural femininity, strength, and vulnerability—captured in its purest form within the embrace of nature.

Typically photographed outdoors—by water, in forests, fields, or other untouched natural landscapes—this experience is designed to honor the human body as part of the natural world. The styling can range from softly draped fabrics to semi-nude or fully natural compositions, always guided by comfort, consent, and artistic intention. At times, the body may be gently obscured or complemented by natural elements such as water, leaves, flowers, wind, or light.

The result is a deeply artistic and intimate portrait series that reflects authenticity, freedom, and connection to nature.

The Raw Beauty experience can be a powerful gift for a partner—especially as a wedding gift—or a meaningful personal reminder of confidence, transformation, and self-acceptance.

Each session is approached with sensitivity and care, creating a safe space where beauty is defined not by perfection, but by truth.

Custom Newborn Mandala Experience

Celebrate your baby’s arrival with a one-of-a-kind artistic experience.

Each newborn mandala is individually designed and handcrafted specifically for your baby. Using carefully selected natural elements, organic textures, dried botanicals, feathers, wood, fibers, and other thoughtfully curated materials, I create a unique mandala that surrounds your little one in a beautiful work of art.

Every design is inspired by harmony, nature, and storytelling—making no two mandalas ever the same. The result is a magical, timeless portrait that captures not only your baby’s earliest days but also the beauty of creativity and connection.

This is more than a newborn photoshoot—it’s a custom art experience, thoughtfully created to become a cherished keepsake for your family.

 

 

 

Custom Newborn Mandala & Fine Art Baby Sessions

At Wake Up A Muse Studio, I create bespoke newborn art experiences that combine fine art photography with carefully designed mandala-inspired compositions.

Each session is centered around your baby and thoughtfully styled using natural elements, organic textures, and artistic props to create unique, magical imagery. I gently pose newborns in a safe and comfortable way, always following their natural cues to ensure a calm and peaceful experience.

Alongside the signature mandala setups, additional session options are available:

Family & Parent Portraits
Beautiful, timeless portraits with parents and baby are always welcome. These can include intimate skin-to-skin moments or softly styled family compositions that highlight connection and emotion.

Newborn Solo Portraits
Minimal, softly posed images focusing entirely on your baby, capturing their tiny features, expressions, and natural beauty.

Macro Detail Photography
Close-up artistic images of your baby’s hands, feet, eyelashes, lips, and other delicate details—preserving the fleeting beauty of the newborn stage.

All sessions take place in my studio, Wake Up A Muse, designed to provide a calm, warm, and comfortable environment for both baby and parents.

The result is a curated collection of fine art imagery that blends portraiture, texture, and storytelling—creating timeless keepsakes for your family.

 

 

Maternity Sessions

Maternity photography is a beautiful way to honor and celebrate the journey of motherhood. These sessions are designed to capture the quiet strength, tenderness, and anticipation of this very special time in a woman’s life.

Most maternity sessions take place either in carefully chosen natural settings or indoors at my studio, Wake Up A Muse, located in Darien, IL. Both environments offer a timeless and artistic approach—whether surrounded by nature or in a softly styled studio space.

This experience is not only about creating beautiful portraits, but about preserving a meaningful chapter that passes so quickly. It becomes a lasting memory of the connection between mother and baby before birth.

A curated selection of maternity dresses is available for use during the session, and styling guidance is provided to ensure you feel confident, comfortable, and beautifully yourself.

Each session includes a personal consultation to discuss styling, location, and creative direction, ensuring a thoughtful and personalized experience from start to finish.

Family Sessions

Family photography is about preserving the connection, love, and everyday magic that makes each family unique. These sessions are designed to feel natural, relaxed, and authentic—capturing real moments rather than forced poses.

Family sessions can take place outdoors in natural light settings such as parks, fields, or other meaningful locations, or indoors at my studio, Wake Up A Muse, located in Darien, IL. Both options offer a timeless and artistic approach, tailored to your family’s style and personality.

Whether playful, calm, or more posed and refined, each session is guided in a way that allows genuine interaction and emotion to unfold naturally. The goal is to create images that feel real today and will remain meaningful for years to come.

Family sessions are a beautiful way to celebrate milestones, document growth, or simply honor the love you share in this moment of life.

 

Breastfeeding Sessions

Breastfeeding photography is a deeply personal and meaningful way to honor the bond between mother and child. These sessions celebrate intimacy, connection, and the quiet strength of motherhood during one of its most nurturing stages.

Sessions can take place either in nature or at my studio, Wake Up A Muse, located in Darien, IL. The setting is kept soft, calm, and minimal, allowing the focus to remain entirely on the emotional connection between mother and baby.

The style of the session is natural and respectful, ranging from softly posed portraits to candid moments of feeding and closeness. Every image is created with care, sensitivity, and an artistic eye, ensuring a timeless and elegant result.

These sessions are not only a celebration of motherhood, but also a beautiful way to preserve a fleeting chapter that is both powerful and tender.

 

Child Portrait Sessions

Child portrait sessions are designed to capture the individuality, curiosity, and natural beauty of each child at every stage of growth. These sessions focus on authentic expression rather than stiff posing, allowing personality to shine through in a relaxed and playful environment.

Sessions can take place outdoors in natural light or indoors at my studio, Wake Up A Muse, located in Darien, IL. Both settings provide a timeless, artistic backdrop that keeps the focus on the child while allowing space for movement, emotion, and spontaneity.

Whether quiet and contemplative or playful and full of energy, each child is photographed in a way that feels natural and unforced. The goal is to create portraits that reflect who they truly are in this moment of their childhood.

These images become lasting keepsakes for families—capturing fleeting expressions, gestures, and stages that pass far too quickly.

Adult Portrait Sessions

Adult portrait sessions are a celebration of identity, presence, and personal story. These sessions are designed to create timeless, expressive imagery that reflects who you are—at this moment in your life.

Each session is guided with intention and artistry, focusing on natural expression, subtle emotion, and authentic character. Whether soft and minimal or bold and expressive, the approach is always tailored to your personality and vision.

Special Events

Special event photography is dedicated to capturing the most meaningful celebrations in your life—from christenings and baptisms to birthdays, weddings, and any other important milestones worth remembering.

Each event is approached with a documentary and artistic eye, focusing on genuine emotions, candid moments, and the atmosphere that makes your celebration unique. The goal is to preserve not just how the day looked, but how it felt.

Coverage is flexible and tailored to your needs, whether you are hosting an intimate gathering or a larger celebration. Sessions can take place on location or in a chosen venue, depending on the nature of your event.

In addition, face painting services can be offered upon request, adding a playful and creative element—especially for children’s parties and family celebrations.
