into sentimental heirlooms for families that can't keep a straight face and love to cozy up. Photographing families in Boulder, Denver, and surrounding areas.

Transforming life's Sweetest Moments...

Colorado Newborn Photographer

My name is Thao, and I'm excited that you have chosen to learn more about my business. My journey as a photographer was ignited by a personal regret of not getting professional newborn portraits done when my first child was born. Even after seven years, that twinge of regret lingers.
It's precisely this sentiment that fuels my passion for capturing maternity and newborn moments. There's something truly exceptional about these sessions. I love helping families document this time in their lives, because I deeply understand their significance and value.

- Thao

Welcome!

My Philosophy

As your newborn photographer, I will primarily focus on the connection between your baby and family. I will capture your baby in organic settings and positions that a baby would naturally be in – for example, cradled in a your arms, or swaddled and sleeping in a bassinet or crib. 

My sessions are baby-led. which means our session flows around what your baby needs - feedings, diaper changes or bundled up and held. I’ll gently guide you throughout our time together, capturing the little details that brings the most joy to your life.

"Ears, eye, nose, mouth... And ten tiny toes.
And A love that grows and grows."

"We worked with Thao for both our maternity and newborn photos and we love how they came out. I don't love taking pictures and can feel pretty awkward, but with Thao I felt very relaxed and it shows in our pictures."

I'm all for digital convenience and the joy of receiving digital files to share so easily. But I've come to believe that online platforms shouldn't be the only way we keep our memories alive. Looking ahead a decade or two, envision the daunting task of recollecting the numerous platforms and login credentials, let alone passing them down to your kids. Life's full of surprises, and technology adds its own twists. That's why the best way to secure your memories is to get them printed. With every package, you will get both the high resolution digital file and a 4x6 printed copy. I want to make it easier for you to get those photos into your hands, not just on your phone or social media feed. (You will select these packages to purchase after viewing your proofing gallery.)

Life moves incredibly fast once children enter the picture. It can be hard to take it all in. This is why I offer Membership Plans for this unique time in your family's life. When you join a Membership Plan, you'll choose from 2 to 4 sessions to help you document this special time. Choose from maternity, newborn, six month, and first birthday.

  • Choice between in-home, studio or outdoor location
  • Session planning and guidance
  • Access to client wardrobe or wardrobe selection assistance
  • Discounts on session fees, digital and artwork purchases






Membership Plans

The Membership Plan Fee is in lieu of the "Creative Session Fee" of a single session. This fee DOES NOT include printed artwork or digital files. 

You will receive your proofing gallery within one week of your session. 

After you purchase your package and make your final image selection, I will do the final touchups (i.e. edit out flyaways, blemishes, etc.) and send the digital files back to you within one-two weeks. Print products will be shipped directly to your home.

Yes, after your initial investment, you are welcome to print the images on your own. If you do this, I recommend making sure that the printer does not color correct the images.

While 10 cent prints sound great in theory, the cheaper printing quality often won’t do your images justice. Paper quality, color correction and a handful of other factors play a big role in the way your prints turn out. I will not be able to guarantee the final quality and outcome of your prints if you go with a third party.

You are absolutely welcome to share images on social media. To ensure that my work is properly represented, I ask that you refrain from any edit, that includes placing a filter on them. I also appreciate image credits and tags as they help me to continue to grow as a business. 

I use very little props during newborn sessions. I will bring an array of swaddles, headbands, and hats to your session. My main goal during your session is to capture the connection between your baby and family. 

If you are looking for traditional newborn portraits (i.e. posing on different sets, buckets/baskets, etc.), I would be happy to refer you to other photographers in that genre.

I have had countless past clients thrilled with their photos and were eager to download and share them electronically.

Then their life got busy... "Print Photos" became another item on the never ending to do list... Taking weeks, months and even years to complete.

Which is why all of my packages include both digital and physical products. I want to make it easier for you to get those photos into your hands or on your walls, not just on your phone or social media feed.
