Scott Air Force Base Newborn & Maternity Photographer
At Willow & Moss, we believe in creating so much more than beautiful photographs. We believe in preserving the moments that define your family’s story with an experience that feels just as meaningful as the images themselves. From the anticipation of welcoming your little one to the joy of watching your family grow, every session is thoughtfully designed to celebrate this incredible season of life. Whether you’re visiting us for maternity portraits, newborn photography, or a family session, we are truly honored to be trusted with your most treasured memories.
As a dedicated Scott Air Force Base Newborn Photographer, your new little addition holds a special place in our hearts. Those tiny fingers, sleepy stretches, soft expressions, and delicate details change far too quickly, and our passion is preserving them with timeless, heartfelt imagery you’ll cherish for generations. We take a gentle, baby-led approach to every newborn session, creating a calm, safe, and relaxing environment where both parents and babies can feel completely at ease.
With more than 12 years of experience, our team combines artistic vision, technical expertise, and genuine passion to create portraits that are both elegant and deeply personal. Every session is carefully planned with attention to the smallest details, from wardrobe guidance and styling to handcrafted props, luxurious textures, and beautiful finishing touches that elevate your final gallery.
Whether you dream of a sophisticated studio session with soft, timeless styling or an outdoor experience surrounded by natural beauty, we tailor every session to reflect your family’s unique story. Our full-service approach is designed to make the entire process effortless and enjoyable, allowing you to simply relax while we create artwork that will become part of your family’s legacy.
Our goal is for you to leave with more than a collection of photographs. We want you to have heirloom images that transport you back to these fleeting moments every time you see them—capturing the love, connection, and emotions that make your family beautifully yours.
Where Your Family's Story Becomes Art
"Nichole is an amazing newborn photographer with amazing talent! She has a beautiful location with picture perfect props, furniture and pieces for newborns. Nichole was so patient with our little boy and took the time she needed to make sure she got the best shots. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a newborn photographer!"

Our Photography Services
The process will begin with an in-person (or telephone) consultation giving us a chance to get to know one another and begin discussing the vision for your custom session.
Then upon booking, we will meet again for further planning and a wardrobe styling consultation. Not only do we have a beautifully curated studio closet for our clients, we also provide an online styling program to help style your family from your home.
This process sets the tone for your portrait experience. When you arrive for your portrait session, the real fun begins! If you like, your portrait session will begin with one of our hair and makeup artists to pamper you and prepare you for the studio session. Your stlying and posing will be guided throughout your session. Great thought and care has been taken to provide our clients with a luxe, stress-free and fun experience.
About 2-3 weeks after your session, you will return to the studio for a private reveal and ordering session. The meeting will begin with a viewing of a slideshow of the images from your gallery. A variety of unique and beautiful heirloom products are on display at the studio to explore options for your custom art. With our photography experience and expertise we can assist you with wall design and product recommendations.
