Tangled 1st Birthday | Lake Elsinore Cake Smash Photographer

February 24, 2023

{ Emily Menzie Photography: Lake Elsinore Cake Smash Photographer } I had so much fun setting up for little beauty Camila’s 1st birthday cake smash session! Her upcoming birthday party will be a Tangled theme, so I wanted to incorporate some beautiful gold and lavender colors by making a balloon garland. Her momma wanted some family and parent shots, so we started off with some family photos, then got some sweet shots of little Camila showing off her pretty dress. She wasn’t very sure about her cake or the strange lady pointing a camera at her 🙂 but I hope she will have a blast celebrating her big day next week! I love personalizing each baby’s session according to their own personality and whatever parents would like to highlight their little one. First birthday sessions can include a cake (also known as a smash cake session or cake smash session) plus baby bath shots at the end (I have a few baby-sized tubs that are absolutely adorable), making these sweet sessions extra fun!

Babies only ever have ONE first birthday — make it extra special by scheduling a session with me! Check out the session options I offer and contact me to discuss your baby’s photos. I love meeting families from all over Southern California including Temecula, Murrieta, Menifee (where I’m located), Lake Elsinore, Riverside, San Diego and beyond — and I hope to meet you too!

Adorable Ryan | Temecula Newborn Baby Photographer

July 6, 2022

I loved getting to meet cute little Ryan and his parents! He slept so well for his photos and had the best little cheeks.

Ryan’s momma was looking for a newborn photographer near Temecula and I’m so glad she reached out! It’s never too late to contact me for newborn photos. I’m always happy to fit clients in the best I can.

Why invest in baby photos? Is it worth it to hire a newborn photographer?

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.

Luna’s Sitter Session | Menifee Baby Photographer

May 17, 2022

Sitter sessions are always some of my favorite photos to capture! What is a sitter session? It’s just as it sounds — a photoshoot to celebrate the milestone of babies learning to sit on their own! This typically takes place between 6-9 months. Luna was 8 months old at the time of her session and so much fun. She was sooooo wiggly and expressive!

Adorable baby Theo | Menifee California photographer

May 14, 2022

Theo was so much fun! I don’t get to photograph his age range often (he was just shy of 8 weeks), though I wish I did because it’s so fun and interesting to see how much babies change in those first 2 months. He was so expressive and aware of the camera!

Wyatt’s 3 month photoshoot | Menifee Baby Photographer

May 3, 2022

Wyatt was SO expressive for his photos — what a cutie! 5 weeks-5 months tends to be more tricky when it comes to photographing babies, as they tend to wear out a bit faster. Wyatt turned 3 months old on the day of his session and he came in like a little firework, full of expression until he burned out. 😉 He was such a good sport for his photos. I’m so excited that he’s on my 3 month milestone plan!

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 wanna 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.

Silly Millie in da tub! | Menifee baby photographer

July 8, 2021

Millie’s momma had so many fun ideas for her session, and Millie made it all come to life with her adorable personality! Not to mention the best, squishiest 6 month old rolls. She wanted nothing else but to gobble up those flowers! This post is exploding with cuteness…

Tiny baby G and her big bows | Temecula Newborn Photographer

March 1, 2021

This gorgeous little one’s momma loves big bows and baby girl looked SO darling in them! Her momma also wanted to get some awake shots and she rocked that too! She took a little bit of time to settle, but once she did she made my job so much fun. Enjoy loads of adorable…
