KIND WORDS

I love myself more after every session with Kaitlyn because of how hard she loves me.


More than Newborn Photos

Families are in love with their Newborn Films (aka Video)

What KMP Clients are Saying

Ashley

In-Home Rainbow Newborn Client

Our rainbow baby’s film brought me to tears…

… and the photos are absolutely gorgeous. She brought a beautiful wardrobe for the whole family to wear, and we felt so comfortable in her presence. We are so very thankful to have met her and we would undoubtedly recommend her to anyone.”

Katherine

In-Home Newborn Client

Kaitlyn came and instantly made us all feel at ease.

I felt like we were experiencing beautiful family time adoring our newborn rather than an awkward photo shoot. She was amazing with our 3-year-old and captured the sweetest moments of him with our newborn. I’m so pleased with the photos, film, and the experience!”

Lauren

Studio Newborn Client

“Kaitlyn’s heirloom products are truly amazing…

… unlike any others I have seen. She makes it easy to have a great experience start to finish by providing all the services you would ever need. I love her emphasis on birth and motherhood, and her experience as a doula makes her highly attuned to capturing those sacred moments of being a mom. Would highly recommend working with her!”


Meet your Newborn Photographer and Videographer


Hello, friend! I’m Kaitlyn, a people-loving nerd of a soul, Christ-follower, and mom to 4.

I’ve documented tender transitions (aka maternity, birth, and newborns/babies) since 2018, as Colorado Springs’ only newborn photographer-videographer. As a certified doula and birth photographer, I treasure embracing and honoring this postpartum journey with you. You are my inspiration: the vulnerable journey of transformation and growth into parenthood, filled with leaky, hard-good memories, creating safety and belonging for your precious family.

I’ve watched dear friends and clients walk through miscarriage and stillbirth, and am honored to both remember their precious angel babies and to donate bereavement photography to families as they say goodbye to their stillborn, miscarried, or dying babies here in Colorado Springs.

Colorado families come to me to honor their most vulnerable and transformative seasons. Embracing the emotions (all the “feels”) is important here, and I strive to make this space emotionally safe for every family I serve (and those I don’t).

The Process

01.

Reserve and Plan for your Newborn Session

Kept simple and thoughtful

Newborn sessions are scheduled approximately 2-3 weeks after your expected due date or scheduled delivery date, and reserved with your session fee and signed contract.

As your due date approaches, I’ll be here for you. Every newborn client receives:

  • A thoughtful pre-session planning session to discuss wardrobe and help us meaningfully document your newly-grown family.
  • Access to the Client Wardrobe: flexible, flattering clothing that fits your changing postpartum body and coordinating clothing for your whole family
  • Luxurious and emotionally-safe support every step of the way

02.

Your Newborn Photo + Video Session

In the comforts of your home or at the COS downtown studio

Your job is to simply be profoundly present and deeply experience precious time with your beautiful, ever-changing new baby (and savor this newly grown family of yours). I’ve got the rest, promise.

Photo and video documentation

Time for both more traditional and intimate postpartum portraits

03.

Your In-Home Reveal

to celebrate your family and custom-design your tangible art.

Reveals take place in the comforts of your home, approximately 2-6 weeks after your session. This is when you’ll view your polished gallery of images and your session film for the first time, and then custom-design your tangible art pieces.

Most packages include tangible art alongside your digital files and films; from linen albums to framed wall art, linen keepsake boxes and motion books, each are thoughtfully planned and custom-designed for you and your home.

FAQ’s for Newborn Photography


As a business that serves pregnant and postpartum parents, we pride ourselves on carrying flexible and adaptive pieces with inclusive sizing (currently XS-3XL dresses, as well as men’s shirts), and comfortable, kid-friendly clothing for your littles (NB- size 8). We’re always adding pieces, so check in at your wardrobe consult for the latest!

We currently use two studio locations: one in the heart of downtown Colorado Springs, and the other for Denver families in Centennial (not far from Park Meadows Mall).

I recommend reserving your newborn session on my calendar by your second trimester to ensure availability. Newborn sessions are scheduled approximately 10 days after your estimated due date or scheduled delivery date (always with the flexibility to reschedule as needed). In general, newborn sessions are recommended to be scheduled in the first few weeks postpartum, though comfortably done up to 6-8 weeks postpartum.

There isn’t a “right” answer to this question. Most families choose to have me come to their home for their newborn session – it eliminates travel with a newborn freshly postpartum, and adds the extra layer of meaning and comfort to your session. Studio sessions are often a good fit if your home has few and small windows, your house doesn’t feel like home, or having visitors in your home is a significant source of anxiety for you. We can talk through what would be best for you during our discovery call!

Newborn sessions are guided by visions and goals rather than time limits, but generally take around 2-3 hours. We strive to make space to feed and comfort fussy babies, help the new big siblings and pets be involved, and document what’s important to you.

Fresh 48 sessions are documented within the first 48 hours of your babes’ life at their place of birth (hospital, birth center if we can time it right, or at home). They are currently offered exclusively to KMP Members and birth clients with the occasional opening released to my email subscribers. Reach out below if you’d like to be added to my list!

Absolutely! We hope you’ll involve and embrace your whole family (pets and angel babes included, if applicable) as we celebrate and honor your transitions through pregnancy and postpartum during our sessions together.

If you value documenting your birth alongside your pregnancy and postpartum, I highly recommend joining the KMP Birth Membership! It includes birth doulatog support + documentation alongside 2 full sessions to richly document this tender transition (+ receive all the member perks).
