Jacksonville NC Maternity, Newborn & Family Photographer
Welcome
Welcome to Emmy Jo Photography, your Jacksonville maternity and newborn photographer, where the heartbeat of motherhood inspires every image. If you’re a mother, you’ve likely felt the bittersweet happiness of watching your children grow, all while realizing the heartbreak of how fast time is actually slipping away. I know what that feels like.
As a full-service photographer serving Jacksonville and the North Carolina coast, I find beauty in the midst of what can feel like the chaos of raising babies. Let me help you preserve this time in your life by effortlessly capturing your natural moments, whether we’re near the coast for maternity photos or tucked into my studio for newborn photography.
Behind the Lens
A mama of five who believes motherhood deserves to be remembered – Beautifully.
Hello there! I’m Emily — a mama of five and the photographer behind Emmy Jo Photography. I know firsthand how quickly these seasons of motherhood pass. That’s why I create sessions that feel calm, connected, and effortless—so you can see your family the way they’ll remember you: full of love, warmth, and grace.
Let me help you relive the beauty in the chaos through the art of an image.
Preserve your photos
Heirloom-Quality
Products & Prints
Before we even begin planning your session, we set intentions to preserve your images in print. I believe that the people you hold closest to your heart deserve to enjoy seeing these memories each day, and because I know that life can get hectic, I custom-design handcrafted albums and high-quality print products for every client.
Whether neatly organized in a box, elegantly displayed in an album, or proudly hanging on your wall, the act of printing your images preserves the emotions, connections, and love woven into each photograph.
Each photograph tells a story – let me preserve these memories in print.
A Truly Unique Experience
simple, natural, and filled with love
In the beautiful chaos of life with kids, we often overlook the subtle, tender moments that make it extraordinary. Moments like the gentle pull on their ear when tired, the snug fit of their little fingers around yours, or the funny face they make when shyness takes over.
Time moves swiftly, and it is easy to forget all these perfect details. This is what drives my art as a Jacksonville maternity and newborn photographer, preserving these moments in time – simple, natural, and filled with love. Whether it’s baby photos in those early weeks or a full newborn photography studio session once you and baby have found your rhythm, I’m here for every version of this season.
As a full-service photographer, I take care of everything to ensure your experience is seamless and stress-free. From providing beautiful dresses to helping you coordinate outfits, and beyond – I’ve got it covered. So, from the moment our session starts, all you need to do is show up and soak up all the tender moments. Because one day, these photos will be all we have left to remember. I would be honored to work with you and to capture moments that will be treasured for generations to come.
