Introduction
NICE TO MEET YOU! Hi there, I'm Heidi, the lady behind Heidi Rakas Photography. I specialize in natural, timeless newborn photography that captures the quiet, emotional moments of your baby’s earliest days. My approach is relaxed and baby-led, ensuring a stress-free experience for you and your family. With a cozy home studio in Eugene, I’ve created a warm and inviting space where parents can truly enjoy the session—complete with a play area for siblings, lattes for parents, and a thoughtfully curated client closet. I also offer in-home and Fresh 48 sessions for those who want to document these fleeting moments in a familiar setting. My style is organic, minimal, and emotive, blending traditional newborn portraits with lifestyle photography to create images that feel both natural and deeply personal. I focus on preserving these moments as heirloom-quality artwork, offering beautifully crafted albums and fine art prints so your memories can be cherished for generations. Every family’s story is unique, and I’m honored to help tell yours through heartfelt, timeless images. With a background as a special education teacher, I bring patience and understanding to every photography session, especially when working with children. It’s such a gift to photograph timeless keepsakes that celebrate the love and connection within families, and I’d love to share it with you!

Heidi is an absolutely amazing newborn photographer! As a first-time mom, I was a bit nervous, but she made me feel so comfortable from the moment we arrived. She is incredibly kind and generous, and her warmth really put me at ease. I was especially impressed by how sweet and gentle she was with my baby. Its clear she has so much experience and truly cares about capturing those precious moments. The photos turned out beautiful, and I couldn't be happier with them. I highly recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a talented, caring, and professional photographer!

Heidi is an AMAZING photographer! She's done family photography, headshots, and if I could go back in time and let her take photos of me as a newborn, I totally would! Stop scrolling through reviews and just book photos with Heidi already!

Heidi was comfortable and fun to work with! She read my 1 year old well to get smiles and giggles through the session. We plan to take more photos with her in the future

The way she captured the smile of my little girl is truly amazing. Her photos capture the moments I'll get to now cherish for a lifetime.
