Service introduction
I offer Fresh 48 (Hospital), Newborn, Maternity, Family, and Senior Photography Sessions. I also offer discounts when multiple sessions are booked together. For example, Maternity/Newborn Package. A little bit about my style: I take a lifestyle approach to my photography. When photographing your family my objective is to capture genuine images of you interacting with each other that you will treasure for a lifetime. I want to tell your family's story. I capture families in a way that is artistic, real, and full of life and love. I fall in love with every family I photograph and the little details that make them unique! My sessions are relaxed; I provide gentle guidance while capturing your family in a natural setting.

Ratings and reviews
If I could give more stars I would! Meg photographed my family for a "Fresh 48" session, at the hospital when our newborn was only a day and a half old. Meg tenderly captured these remarkably special moments of our new family and provided us with the most beautiful collection of pictures that we will treasure forever! Meg's naturally warm and gentle personality was just right for visiting us at such a unique moment in our life, and we are so grateful she could be a part of it!
- Natalie Bernardi
Meg is amazing! She captures my family’s spirit so well. Even when my kids aren’t in the mood for pictures Meg is super patient with them and always gets great, happy pictures. I love that our photo sessions are not overly posed. My kids can be kids with Meg and my family looks relaxed and happy. I also love how Meg always captures the most beautiful light. Meg is easy to work with and downloading our pictures is simple. We love working with Meg and are looking forward to our next session with her! Update 2025: Meg has been photographing my family since 2022 and we continue to be delighted by the photos she captures of our family. I love how well Meg captures the season of life my family is in. Young kids don’t always want to sit and pose for pictures and I love that Meg follows their lead and lets them just be themselves. We are looking forward to our next session with Meg!
- Emily Foster
Meg is an incredible family photographer. She has photographed my family four times and somehow captures each of my kids smiling and looking adorable. She is extremely thoughtful in her approach, easy to work with, and very, very talented. I cannot say enough good things about Meg- you should DEFINITELY hire her!
- Maura kernan
We have Meg photograph our grandchildren each fall for our Christmas card. She does an amazing job and we always get many compliments. Meg is great with kids, is very quick and makes it fun for everyone. I can't imagine anyone other than Meg taking our family photos!"
- Joan K
Our family loves Meg! She was amazing to work with this summer for our family and son’s senior photos. She was accommodating, easy to reach, very helpful with ideas and links and NAILED my vision. We will definitely be using her again.
- Kristine Walz
We have Meg take photos of our family every year. She does a truly fantastic job and I can't recommend her highly enough!
- Jess deMonsabert
Meg has been taking pictures of our family for 8 years. She is incredibly talented and professional, as well as great with kids! Meg always captures the most beautiful moments and year after year takes amazing photos of our family. Highly recommended!
- Rachel Alric
Meg has taken family photos for us twice now - once when our first son was only 9 months old, and again a few weeks ago with both of our sons, ages 3 and 18 months. She has done a phenomenal job both times, even when our little ones weren't making it easy! We have enlarged printed photos from our shoots with her hanging in our living room and every time someone comes over, they immediately compliment the photos and ask who took them. We would recommend Meg to anyone who wants beautiful, natural feeling photos of their family.
- Laura Farrell
Meg has photographed our family many times in the last few years. She pays attention to detail and captures moments that you will cherish forever. From fall photos, to newborn or just at-home pictures of you and your family, these are the days you will want to remember when your children (and pets) are older. Meg always makes you feel comfortable and has great communication skills around planning, styling, and direction during pictures. I recommend Meg to everyone - if you want quality pictures don't hesitate to book her!
- Lauren Hodlin
Meg has photographed our family multiple times over the last few years and has been wonderful to work with. Her communication from booking your session up to the day of is very clear, detailed & organized. She is great with kids of all ages, she is patient and knows when and how to redirect to make the photo session go as smoothly as possible! Each and every photo gallery has exceeded our expectations!
- Samantha
Meg is awesome! From start to finish she was super communicative so we knew what to expect, gave great advice, and she spent a ton of time with us. We loved the photos we got back and receive so many compliments on them. Would definitely work with her again!
- Laura Munkres
Meg has taken our pictures since 2021 when I was pregnant with my daughter and since then has done fall pictures, another maternity session, personality portraits for the kids, and a backyard session for us. She is amazing with our kids and takes the time to send you a giant edited album of your photos. We love every single one, every single time. We will continue to go back to her over and over!
- Nicole Sparandera
We had a fantastic shoot with Meg! We chose to do a backyard session and are so happy with the photos. From start to finish- everything was seamless! Meg made us all feel comfortable and was great with the kids. Highly recommend!
- Lauren Dodge
Meg was absolutely amazing to work with! From our initial phone call, Meg was extremely responsive and provided all the information we needed to make the decision to hire her for our newborn photo shoot. During the shoot, Meg made us feel so comfortable and took her time making sure we got all the shots we could possibly want. Even in our sleep-deprived state, we felt relaxed and happy throughout the session. But, most importantly, the photos are absolutely stunning! We could not believe how well Meg captured our baby and our family. She even managed to get several amazing photos of our hyper dog who hardly ever sits still! We are so excited to have these photos and will cherish them for the rest of our lives! If you are considering hiring Meg, don't hesitate, just book her!!
- Erin Ostheimer
Meg did Fall photos for my family for the first time last year and I’m so glad we chose her! She was super responsive and was able to capture such amazing photos of us, including our 19 month old who was being a little difficult at the time. I remember leaving thinking, I hope we got at least one good one, and ALL the pictures were so good, I had to upgrade our package to get them all!
- Amanda Morrissette
Choosing Meg for our maternity and newborn pictures was the best decision we’ve could have made to capture these memories. She was patient with our toddler (so much so that our 4 year old asks at least once a week for “more pictures with Ms. Meg”), is so creative with capturing real-life moments, and was great to work with. Having the ability to have digital photos was a big “must have” for us, and Meg delivered galleries of beautiful, high quality images. We can’t wait to book with her again in the future as our family grows!
- Anne Nelson
Working with Meg was amazing. We got to just be ourselves while she took pictures - no posing. And the photos are the best we’ve ever had from a photo shoot!
- Kerri F Martin Rizzolo
Working with Meg Mosher from the beginning was an exceptional and professional experience. My partner and I inquired to arrange an engagement shoot and the process was easy and great! We filled out a quiz, set a time and date and she followed up with more information along the way and we had a great in-person session. She made it so easy to relax and have a natural time. I can't wait to use her in the future for family photoshoots and to anyone looking, I highly recommend.
- Marlene Navarro
My family discovered Meg Mosher Photography 2 years ago and since have had the most beautiful family photos and child personality photos taken. Meg has a way of making everyone feel relaxed in front of the camera. She played games with my kids to capture real smiles and family interactions and patiently understood when the dog or kids weren't quite cooperating! I'm especially in love with the personality photos she took of my girls. Barefoot and in front of a white back drop laughing with each other, these photos will capture them at this age forever. I highly recommend Meg Mosher Photography.
- Amy Linden
We've been working with Meg for almost 5 years now and have never faltered from booking photography sessions with her. Our kids are most comfortable in front of Meg's camera and it shows! The photos she captures showcase our family's personalities seamlessly. Most recently, Meg did a lifestyle photoshoot of our family of 4 and my husband's parents in our home and the vignettes that organically formed during the session are beautiful from toddler tea parties with their grandparents and reading stories on the couch to building Magnatile towers and dance parties in our living room - simple every day moments that we'll now be able to look back on forever. Capturing these memories are also the best gifts for all of us for years to come.
- Samantha Raynor
Meg was awesome to work with and our newborn photos came out absolutely beautiful! Photos were done very timely as well. Can’t thank her enough and would highly recommend!
- Allison Downey
I've worked with Meg three times over the last five years. Every once in a while, we want to document how our kid (now kids!) are growing with stunning, glorious, sweet photos taken by a genuinely kind, delightful human - and Meg ALWAYS delivers! She is super easy to coordinate with, she is wonderful with both of my kids (our eldest is 6 and she's been wrangling him since he was about a year old; our youngest is 6 months, so her skills truly run the gamut!). I cannot say enough good things about Meg or her photos. They are memories we will cherish forever, a snapshot in time of our family that goes by so quickly. Work with Meg, you'll love the whole experience!!
- Casey Sheridan-Smith (she-her)
My husband and I are absolutely not naturals in front of the camera. But Meg wasn’t phased by that at all, and she somehow managed to make art out of our awkwardness for our maternity shoot. Meg is so easy to be around and has a great eye for what makes a photo a treasured memory- plus she made the photo shoot fun enough that we forgot we were even taking pictures in the first place! I’ll recommend her to anyone who will listen, and can’t wait to see the magic she makes with our newborn shoot later this year!
- Rachel Carey
We have trusted Meg to take our family photos for years. From maternity photos at the Lincoln Memorial to in-home newborn sessions and now our annual family photos with the beautiful NY fall foliage as our backdrop. Meg is always professional and caring as she captures our growing family.
- Tiffany Timm
Meg has photographed our family at least 4 times and we are always thrilled with the results! She takes the most beautiful photos and is always willing to incorporate our special requests. She will for sure be our family photographer for years to come! We highly recommend her!
- Ashlee M
Meg was absolutely amazing! We were originally looking for a photographer to take pregnancy announcement photos for us, which she doesn't normally do, but she included it in a 3 session package for us and the photos turned out better than we could've imagined! So far we've had a pregnancy announcement shoot and a maternity shoot. Looking forward to our newborn shoot once our little guy arrives! Meg is the best, would highly recommend!
- Lina Bajwa
Meg was amazing and captured beautiful photos of our extended family. Thank you, Meg!
- Kelsey McMullen
Meg was an absolute pleasure to work with for our newborn session! She was very responsive, personable and her photos are stunning. We are so grateful that she was able to capture such precious moments for our family. We would highly recommend Meg!
- Chantelle Ritchie
I recently had Meg take photos of me, my husband and our 2 dogs. We're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but have always wanted nice photos. We haven't had any professional pictures since our wedding years ago. Meg was so awesome with our dogs (who weren't the most cooperative) and she made us feel really comfortable. We are in love with our photos and cant recommend her enough.
- lauren calicchia
Meg took our maternity photos and just did our newborn photoshoot, both turned out so so wonderful! The finished photos took our breath away and lowkey made us emotional. Meg has an eye for capturing the perfect shot and really takes the time to capture your aesthetic. We love our photos so much and can’t wait to have Meg capture more family memories for years to come.
- G A
I HIGHLY recommend hiring Meg as your photographer for any and all family sessions! She is professional, patient, kind, talented, and more! She made us feel comfortable during our session and was SO friendly to our attention seeking dog. Meg beautifully captured the early days at home with our first baby. The photos we received back are natural, flattering, beautiful, and unique. We cannot wait to use Meg again in the future as our family continues to grow. Again, 10/10 recommend Meg....she is well worth the investment!
- Anna Harrington
Meg was SO good with our two boys, 3 and 5. We got some really amazing photos! I am obsessed with them, and want to put them in every room of my house! If you’re considering going with Meg - just do it!
- Megan Hannah
When we saw the newborn photographs on her website, our eyes were leaking! We knew that she is the one from that very day! She was fun to work with! She made us feel very comfortable during the shoots. Our Maternity and newborn, both photoshoot pictures were so amazing.The way she captured our love, emotions, and feelings for each other in each of those pictures were great! Our Maternity shoot pictures were truly uniques and our newborn photoshoot pictures put us in tears. We are still not able to decide which pictures to get framed and which ones to not. We love them all! She is hands down the most amazing! She is the best in town! If you don't believe me, go to her website and check out the pictures! Click the next arrow button on all those pictures on each of the web pages. We follow her on instagram and you can see that she adapts with each family's unique style and characteristics and focus on their unique qualities while taking pictures. We are so glad we had her!
- Kawal Joshi
I highly recommend Meg. We have repeatedly hired her for our family portraits. She is very professional, talented and easy to work with. She has a gentle way of getting everyone to relax and just have fun. The photos that result capture truly represent us at our best. I have always been very happy with my photos.
- Kimberly Hitchcock
Meg was so fun to work with and delivered such a beautiful and varied set of photos! We absolutely loved working with her. Very professional, efficient, friendly and gave great direction. We would definitely work with her again!
- Heather Terra, LPCA
Meg is an amazing photographer. Our family has used her for the last three years for our family photos. Each year they come out even better than expected. She is great at capturing posed pictures but even better at capturing interactions between people. She is easy to work with, responsive, and punctual. I highly recommend her.
- Delilah Greer
Meg has photographed our family for three years and each time has resulted in exceptional photographs, especially of our children. As a parent, you often wonder how any of the photos will turn out 'ok' when your kids are being goofy, pouting, or otherwise all over the place, but Meg is able to capture their personalities in the most beautiful light. When I see the photographs, the images I see are truly my family and somehow at their very best! It is incredible. We first used Meg to capture our newborn, and based on the ease of the photo shoot and the resulting images, we have continued to request her services. I really can not say enough of Meg.
- Katie Sieg
We have worked with Meg for our family portraits over the last six years. Each time we've worked with her, I have been stunned with how she is able to capture the energy and spirit of our family and our children in playful sessions that allow them to be just who they are. Her relaxed and fun approach to the sessions are a big part of the magic. With four kids of her own, Meg really gets it. Her contract process is simple, her communication is on-point and helpful, and her pricing is very competitive. We will cherish our image collection long after the children are grown and I'm so glad that it has been Meg's eye behind the lens each step of the way.
- Sarah Rogerson
Meg was awesome to work with! She was very personable and patient during our newborn shoot. We had to stop several times to feed our little girl and ease her crying and Meg went with the flow and never rushed the shoot. Her photography is very creative and the photos turned out amazing! We are very pleased with her services and would highly recommend Meg! We will definitely hire her again for family photos in the future.
- Karen Salvalzo
My husband and I reached of to Meg when we decided we wanted to have newborn photos taken! Our son was just about three weeks old when we had our pictures taken and I have to say, Meg was absolutely awesome to work with! She is beyond personable and really has a way of capturing these sweet and delicate moments - without feeling as though it was staged. Her prices are affordable, the quality of her printed products is superb, and the amount of time it takes for delivery was faster than I imagined. We are so grateful Meg was able to capture these moments with our first son! We hope to have the opportunity to work with her again!!
- Eleanor Grady
Meg came to our house to take newborn photos of our son and captured absolutely beautiful natural light images of him and our family. She was very professional, upbeat and patient with our toddler who was less than cooperative at times. Overall we had a great experience and pictures we will always cherish.
- Kristi McConnell Roods
Meg took newborn photos of my daughter a few weeks ago and I couldn't be happier with the way they turned out! Meg was responsive, quick to schedule our photo session, and did a fantastic job. She even took some beautiful extra shots of my daughter in her baptism outfit. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for newborn or family photos!
- Beatrice DiCostanzo
We absolutely loved working with Meg for our family photos! She was super patient and was a miracle worker in getting our kids to cooperate! Our pictures are beautiful! Would definitely recommend and look forward to working with Meg again!
- Kara Szczesiul
Meg takes the most amazing photos, hands down. Photos that you don’t expect and are so excited with the end results that you are smiling days later with the images imprinted in your mind. My most recent experience with Meg was to update our family photos with two toddler boys (ages 3 and 23 months). My husband and I left thinking there’s no way- our youngest “wild child” had a mind of his own the day of pictures and did not want to cooperate. All I wanted was a nice Christmas card quality photo and what I got was so much more. Truly talented and professional, patient and kind, Meg captures the moments you didn’t expect or even know was happening in such a natural and classic style. Do yourself a favor, and book her- you won’t regret it. I never do.
- Jessica Tremblay
Meg was a dream to work with! We weren’t sure what to expect as a new family of 3, trying to take photos on a warm fall day with a baby at dinner time...but Meg made magic happen! Our pictures are beautiful, our son is smiling in almost every one, she captured so many special moments and I’m not sure how I’ll pick just a few to display in our home. Professional, great value, easy to work with...I can’t say enough good things about Meg! Can’t wait for next year’s pictures!!
- Brittany Rimmer
Meg was fantastic!! Right from the start of contacting her she was incredibly responsive and professional. During the photo session, she took her time to ensure she was capturing our family beautifully and naturally. And boy did she deliver! Not to mention, our almost 2 year old wasn't the easiest to work with that day but Meg was patient and managed to capture some really lovely shots of her! We highly recommend her and look forward to using her for our future family photos!
- Kim Golemboski
Meg is a wonderful photographer all around! We are blown away by our photos! She was understanding of the chaos with our kids and doggy, captured everyone’s personalities to perfection, and had my entire gallery to us in record timing! Highly Recommend ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
- jennifer cowin
Meg has done 3 different photo sessions for us and we just love the photos! Breastfeeding session, Christmas photos and my favorite was our most recent summer outdoor session. Meg is very patient and so good with our girls. Highly recommend her for your next family or newborn session!
- Jackie M
I'm so happy we chose Meg to do newborn photos of our baby girl. Meg came to our house on a day that was convenient for us, which is huge when you have a newborn. She was very professional and made us feel very comfortable getting our pictures taken. We received all our photos within a few days, and they were all so amazing! I also love that you can download them all from a gallery. I can't wait to work with Meg in the future for our family photos and photos of our baby girl! I can't recommend her enough!
- Ashley Busse
We have done two family photoshoots with Meg and we are always thrilled with the results! I recommend her to all of my friends who are looking to get family pictures taken.
- Claire Muro
Meg was amazing at my wedding! I definitely couldnt have asked for a better photographer! She super under charges in my opinion, for what you get. My photos came out perfect!!
- Jillian Harris (Lettie Stuart)
We had a family photo session with Meg. She was so great at working with us when weather became an issue. She helped choose an excellent space. And when the day finally came for our photoshoot, I was convinced my daughters antics meant Meg had very little to work with and I was wrong. We received the most beautiful photos very quickly and I highly recommend hiring her.
- Amber K
My family did a photo shoot recently with Meg at Thatcher Park . It was the most relaxed experience. Meg photographed our son for daycare pictures and they have always come out so amazing. We had the same results with our family pictures. Thank you Meg for all your amazing work!!!!
