Beautiful K. Family is expecting a baby boy! They were so fun and energetic during their session, and I had really good time with them. Big sister and brother can not wait to have their little baby brother. It was funny that each time I asked them to touch mommy’s belly, the baby kicked. Seems like baby brother is also so excited to meet them soon. :) Here are some of my favorites from the 70+ photos I edited.
Hi! I'm Ipek! I’m so glad you’re here! Whether you’re embarking on motherhood for the first time or simply wanting updated photos of your growing family – these are moments that you will forever have to cherish and share with the ones you love, and I’m beyond grateful that you would consider me capturing them. Be sure to take a look around and let me know if you have any questions.
This past year was full of tiny moments that didn’t feel big at the time —
a sleepy newborn stretch, a messy cake smash, shy smiles, giggles that lasted only seconds ♥️
Memories fade.
The details soften.
But photos don’t✨
They freeze the in-between moments we forget we’ll miss.
They remind us how small they once were, how fast everything changed.
They bring us back to seasons we didn’t know we’d be nostalgic for yet.
As I look back at this year’s sessions, I’m reminded why printing photos matters so much.
Because one day, these images won’t just be photos —
they’ll be proof of love, growth, and time passing far too quickly.
Here’s to a year full of stories, families, and moments that deserve to be remembered —
not just in our hearts, but in our hands. 📖✨

Some sessions mean a little more ♥️.
Watching this family grow—from photographing their first baby girl as a newborn, to documenting the maternity journey and the newborn moments for their second—fills my heart in the deepest way.
Being trusted again and again to witness these moments, especially welcoming two beautiful girls into one family, is something I never take lightly 🤍
This is why I do what I do 😍

She didn’t wait for the “right time.”
She showed up as she is. ✨
This session was about honoring herself, her journey, and this season of life ♥️

Christmas sessions like this fill my heart✨.
A happy baby girl and her loving parents — sharing giggles, cuddles, and those tiny little expressions that make winter feel warmer.
So grateful I get to freeze these moments in time. ✨🎄❤️
