Raelynn’s Sitter Session | 8 month old baby photos

March 25, 2024

A sitter session is an extra fun and extra cute photoshoot typically for 6-9 month old babies, so it was a perfect time for 8 month old baby photos for Raelynn. This phase is such a blast because babies are full of personality, can typically sit up well on their own (and of course crawling is often right around the corner, if not already started). Cutie Raelynn was just shy of 8 months old for her photoshoot and what an adorable baby model she is! I loved her cute pigtails and big brown eyes…not to mention her captivating smile! She smiled and clapped her way through some of the cutest photos ever and made the whole session such a breeze.

Viviana is 3 months old! | Mommy and Me Photos

March 25, 2024

Getting to photograph Viviana for her 3 month photos was such a treat after getting to capture her newborn photos a few months ago! Honestly, I couldn’t believe it when her momma told me she had just turned 3 months old. It felt like it was just yesterday that I got to meet her beautiful family for her newborn photoshoot. I think as I’m posting this, she actually just turned 4 months old, but I’m catching up on blogging this week and time keeps marching on as all these little ones keep growing!

With Mother’s Day less than a couple months away, I have Mommy and Me photos on my mind and I absolutely loved including lots of mommy-and-me shots in Viviana’s session! My sessions are fully customizable to choose the photos, shots and groupings clients want. I highly encourage moms to join in the photos with their little ones! I can’t emphasize enough how precious these photos will be for you and your child for years to come.

I also encourage baby milestone sessions! There is nothing sweeter than watching a baby grow and develop their personality. Viviana of course has the sweetest personality and is as beautiful as can be.

Isaiah’s 1st birthday! | One and Loved

November 24, 2023

I got to meet adorable little Isaiah last year for his newborn photoshoot, and he has somehow gotten even cuter! He is so handsome with the cutest little smile. His “One and Loved” theme for his one year session and 1st birthday party is one of the best ideas I’ve heard yet.

For one year sessions, I like to start with some portraits, add in some balloons and “ONE” letters, then get to the most fun part with the CAKE! Smashing a cake can get messy, and babies always love it when their parents choose to wrap up the session with some adorable baby tub shots. Isaiah made the whole session a blast and we ended up with so many sweet photos.

June 3, 2022

Are newborn & baby photos worth it? Absolutely! See this post for more detail. Newborn and baby photos are a cherished investment.

You’ve waited so long for your little one to arrive, and once they do, they’ll change your life forever.

There is something so magical about newborns and babies…and they’re only so little for a moment!

My goal with every session is to capture images you’ll treasure forever, no matter how much your baby has grown (take it from me – I have teenagers!)

Kiara’s 8 month photos | Murrieta Baby Photographer

May 19, 2022

Kiara was such a perfect little baby model! Don’t let her big brown eyes and long hair fool you, she was still so teeny. 8 month olds are still in the perfect window for a “sitter session”, which typically falls between 6-9 months old when babies are able to sit on their own and extra expressive.

New Menifee newborn photographer :)

April 12, 2022

Hi there! Although I’m new to Menifee, I’m definitely NOT new to newborn or baby photography! I’ve photographed hundreds of sweet babies over the past decade. It’s crazy to think how grown so many of those little ones are now (definitely not so little any more!).

I grew up mostly in Northern Utah near Salt Lake City, but I lived in Southern Utah in a beautiful town called St George for the last 12 years with my hubby and 3 kids. Moving has been a big adjustment, but I’m so excited to be here and can’t wait to meet new clients here in Southern California. I lived in California a long time ago when I was little, but my husband was born in Calabasas and grew up in SoCal. An opportunity opened up for us to move here, and we decided to take the leap. It felt like forever waiting for our new house to be built, and now that my studio is up and running all I want to do is fill it with new clients! Whether you’re expecting or your little one has already arrived, contact me and let’s get your baby’s photos scheduled! I truly can’t wait to meet you.

Tatum & Wren could be twins! Light and Airy Newborn Photos

September 14, 2020

Light and airy newborn photos are classic, timeless, and always my favorite. I had to remind myself about 1,000 times during Tatum’s newborn session and while editing that she wasn’t her big sister Wren, because oh my goodness, they looked so much alike as newborns! It was so fun to see Wren as a big sister too. The cheeks and lips on these adorable girls are THE BEST!

Double the fun with Twin Photos! Ella and Everly turned one!

August 8, 2020

Twin photos really are double the fun and oh my, what a beautiful family! Twins Ella and Everly each have their own look, both equally gorgeous. Their beautiful momma reminded me of a real life Rapunzel! I think we all broke into a sweat trying to get some cute photos, but it was all totally worth it in the end! Happy first birthday to these little beauties!
