The Rainbow Baby Project

What is a Rainbow Baby? A rainbow baby is a baby born to a family after a pregnancy, stillbirth or infant loss. The storm doesn’t disappear, but the rainbow reminds us that beauty and hope can still come after the darkness.

Why I’m doing this

This project is very close to my heart as it honors my own pregnancy loss and my rainbow baby, Mila Giselle. The Rainbow Baby Project is a way for me to give back to families in my community of Western Massachusetts. Every rainbow baby arrives after a storm. Through special rainbow props and setups, I get to honor your rainbow journey through this session.

What’s included

  • One free newborn session each month for the family I choose from the list of applicants

  • 2 rainbow themed setups with styling and props

  • 3 edited images are yours to keep, free of charge

How it works

Fill out the form below. I read every application personally and will reach out by email to the family I choose. Newborn sessions are best within baby’s first two weeks, so your due date helps me plan. A signed model release is required for the selected family.

“A rainbow baby is the understanding that the beauty of a rainbow does not negate the ravages of the storm. When a rainbow appears, it doesn’t mean the storm never happened or that we are not still dealing with its aftermath. It means something beautiful and full of light has appeared in the midst of the darkness and clouds. Storm clouds may still hover, but the rainbow provides a counterbalance of color, energy, and hope.”
