Motherhood. There are so many emotions that come with it. Mine came with lots and lots of anxiety. Some moms are just filled with joy and peace. I wish that for all of my moms! There is no magic answer book. Parents make the perfect choices for their babies. Period. So when you are staying...
There are so many different types of newborn photography. Here at Kara Powell Photography, I chose to focus on in-home lifestyle because I am a mom and I have been through what you have been through! I found that traveling to a photographer right after giving birth (1-7 days after) was not easy at all....
If you have been around here for a while, you will notice that I have a particular style. I like my families to be themselves and natural! No posing or cheese here. Just hanging out with the kids, doing what they do best: them. This is where you get natural smiles, laughter and connection. Sometimes...

Don’t take my word for it… “What is it like to do a session with Kara? Well first of all she always provides many ideas and options for location. She always sends reminders so that there is no confusion on times and locations. She even sends wardrobe ideas for the session. She is always punctual...
Did you take maternity photos? I kinda did. I had my husband take some of me. So I have a few of me. But they are nothing compared to what people take now. I wish I had the gorgeous maternity portraits that my clients do! Like this image here. Simple, beautiful and classic. What do...
I get to see this young man every year. What a blessing! I love seeing how much he is growing every year. He loves exploring my secret little path way. But this year, he was ready to go get his prize at Walmart for being good. 🙂 Next year is a big year. I can’t...
