Tacoma Newborn Photographer
Newborn Portraits
My goal is to make newborn photography as relaxing and joyful as possible for you and your family. With years of experience working with newborns, I’ll handle all the details—from soothing your baby to creating a cozy, stress-free environment. Whether your little one is sleepy, fussy, or wide-eyed with curiosity, I’ll capture their unique personality and the love your family shares. You just show up, snuggle your baby, and leave the rest to me.
Following Baby's Lead
Tiny hands, tiny feet, and a love that’s bigger than anything you’ve ever known.
Newborn
Portraits
I believe that the best photos come from genuine connections and authentic moments. My approach is all about capturing the real you—your laughter, your love, and the little details that make your family unique. If you’re looking for stiff, overly posed portraits, I might not be the right fit for you. But if you want a relaxed, joyful experience that results in photos full of emotion and personality, we’re going to have an amazing time together!
My philosophy
I live for the UNSCRIPTED moments, those little moments in between.
Moore Holistic Photography is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend hiring Philomena to capture your memories! She is so friendly and makes the whole photography experience fun and comfortable. Not only that, but she captures the most beautiful photos.
I will absolutely hire her again!
I had the amazing opportunity of having Philomena take photos of our baby girl. She was kind and patient. She created a comfortable environment and captured beautiful photos of our newborn. I would highly recommend her work and skills.
She created a comfortable environment and captured beautiful photos of our newborn.
She is easy to work with, keeps sessions low-key, and captures beautiful images. She is also very flexible and she adapts quickly to weather conditions, different child personalities, and the overall needs of her clients. She is awesome! You will love your experience with her and will treasure your photos!
Philomena has taken our family photos twice and we absolutely love how they turned out!
We're a good fit if you are...

I'm ready. Let's book! →
You want to capture the real, raw beauty of this season—the tiny details, the sleepy smiles, and the overwhelming love you feel for your new baby. You’re not interested in stiff or overly posed images; you want photos that tell your unique story.
You value a photographer who takes the time to understand your vision and create a session that’s tailored just for you. You’re looking for guidance, care, and a relaxed, joyful experience that celebrates this special chapter of your life.
You love the idea of working with a photographer who’s passionate about giving back. When you book with me, you’re not just investing in beautiful photos—you’re supporting someone who cares deeply about building connections in our community.
I believe newborn sessions should be a celebration of this incredible season of life. My approach is authentic, holistic, and passionate, focusing on capturing the real emotions, connections, and beauty of your growing family. I take the time to connect with you, understand your vision, and create a relaxed, joyful experience that reflects who you are. Plus, I’m deeply committed to caring for my community, so your session supports not just your family but the people around us too.
The ideal time for newborn photos is within the first 10-14 days after birth, when your baby is still sleepy and curly. However, I understand that every family’s journey is unique, so I’m happy to work with you to find the perfect timing for your session. I’ve worked with babies of all ages and can create beautiful images no matter when you’re ready. If you’re expecting, I recommend booking your session during your second or third trimester to secure your spot.
I totally get it—newborns can be unpredictable! That’s why I approach every session with patience, flexibility, and a lot of passion for what I do. I’ll follow your baby’s lead, allowing plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and breaks. Some of the best photos come from those unplanned, authentic moments, so don’t worry—we’ll capture your family’s magic, no matter what.
Absolutely! I love capturing the holistic story of your growing family. Whether it’s a tender moment with your partner, a sweet sibling interaction, or a family portrait, we’ll create images that celebrate the love and connection you share.
I offer both! I work with a studio that is designed to be warm, cozy, and safe for newborns, with everything we need for a seamless session. If you prefer the comfort of your own home, I also offer lifestyle newborn sessions that capture your family in a more natural, everyday setting. And hey, want a lil of both? I can bring my newborn posing set up right to your house. We’ll work together to choose the best option for you.
