Newborn with the Most Gorgeous Red Hair!

This post is looooong overdue (I think she’s over 3 months old now), but I had to finally share! I just about fell over when I saw this little beauty’s gorgeous red hair—truly a showstopper from the very first moment! She was a dream to photograph and absolutely beautiful. It’s sessions like hers that remind me why I love capturing newborn photos so much—each little one is completely unique!

Booking Newborn Photos: What You Need to Know

The first few weeks with a new baby go by in a blur—and it’s such a special moment in time to capture before it slips away.

The best time to book your newborn session is before your baby arrives—ideally during your early third trimester. This ensures you have a spot on my calendar, usually within the first 5-14 days after birth, when babies are sleepiest and most easily posed, making it easier to capture those peaceful, curled-up portraits everyone loves.

If you’re expecting or have recently welcomed a new baby, now is the perfect time to get in touch!

Welcome to the World | Newborn Girl Photoshoot

Welcome to the world, baby girl! She’s already a couple months old as I’m finally getting around to highlighting her session, but here we go! This sweet little girl’s newborn photoshoot was nothing short of dreamy. She gave me such a good mix of sleepy shots, awake portraits, and sweet little smiles. Newborn sessions are some of my favorites! It’s always such an honor to help families preserve these first fleeting days, when everything is brand new. I had a blast meeting this cute family and their two little girls. I have no doubt they’ll be besties for life!

Newborn Photos with 3 Generations

Getting to capture newborn photos with 3 generations is so special! This cute family brought maternal grandparents and their two little boys for their second son’s newborn photoshoot. Welcoming a new baby is a momentous occasion, and one of the best ways to preserve these early memories is through a newborn photoshoot. These photos not only celebrate the new arrival, but also capture the bond between generations and the excitement of a growing family.

Pretty in Purple | Menifee Newborn Photographer

This little one pulled off every setup and was extra pretty in purple! She had major FOMO and fought sleep so hard, but that just allowed for lots of eye contact and some extra sweet newborn portraits.

Tiny newborn on her daddy’s firefighter jacket

If this tiny newborn on her daddy’s firefighter jacket looks familiar, it’s because I got to capture the same shot at her big sister’s newborn photoshoot just under 2 years ago. Getting to watch my little newborn clients grow and welcome a new sibling is one of my absolute favorite things about what I do! These beautiful sisters were both total dreams for their sweet photoshoot.

Incorporating personal touches into sessions makes them so much more meaningful, and it was an added privilege to honor a firefighter especially after the terrible fires California has experienced this year.

Enjoy some highlights of these adorable sisters…

Baby boy’s newborn photos

After previously photographing this wonderful family for their second daughter’s newborn session and then her 1st birthday photoshoot, I was thrilled to document the newest addition to their family – an adorable baby boy who arrived just before Christmas. Scroll down to view their handsome baby boy’s newborn photos! I made sure to get some portraits of the girls for their January birthdays too.

It’s always so fun to see a family’s dynamic grow and change after welcoming a new little one. They were obviously so excited to have a baby boy after their two adorable girls, and dad brought some special props for his son. This little guy is as cute as can be and so loved!

Welcoming a newborn is a magical time filled with fleeting moments that pass in the blink of an eye. Hiring a newborn photographer is a special way to preserve these precious early days, ensuring you have beautiful memories to cherish for a lifetime. The newborn stage is incredibly short, as babies change constantly as they grow. I offer multiple options for newborn, baby, and child photos, and my goal is to create timeless images that capture your child’s unique personality and milestones – from tiny newborn details to playful toddler expressions and everything in between.

Newborn brother | Menifee Newborn Photographer

I first met this cute family a couple years ago for their first son’s newborn photoshoot. I was so happy to see them again after they welcomed a second baby boy to their family, and it was so fun to see how alike big brother and his newborn brother look!

Newborn photos are such a special way to document life’s most precious chapters – watching families grow as they welcome a new little family member. Witnessing and capturing these moments is truly a privilege. This sweet boy was born before Thanksgiving and I’m finally getting caught up on posting all the sessions I did around the holidays — I’m sure he has grown so much already!

Baby J’s newborn session

I loved meeting baby J and his family for their newborn session, and I loved his spiky hair! It’s always extra fun when older kids get to welcome a new baby. Both of baby J’s parents are bartenders, so they brought some fun little props to make their session personalized and unique.

Wesley’s Preemie Newborn Photos

I had the pleasure of meeting this cute family during their firstborn’s newborn session, and again for his first birthday photoshoot. I was thrilled when they reached out for their second baby boy’s newborn photos!
Sweet baby Wesley arrived a couple of months early and spent some time in the NICU. Thankfully, he was right on track for his newborn photos when he visited just a week before his actual due date. During our session, he managed to sneak in plenty of adorable smiles!
Capturing preemie photos is always special for me. These sessions not only celebrate the unique journey of these little ones but also provide families with cherished memories during a time that can be both challenging and joyful. Each smile from baby W reminded me of the resilience and strength preemies have in their early moments of life!

Oakley’s Tiny Newborn Photos | New Options Added to My Booking Site!

Weighing in at just over 5 pounds, I loved capturing little Oakley’s tiny newborn photos. At just two weeks old, she was incredibly alert and seemed to have major FOMO, not wanting to miss a moment. Her parents opted for my Mini Newborn session, a choice that fits perfectly with the new options I’ve recently added to my booking site:

Newborn Session Options

Clients can select from three newborn session options tailored to accommodate various preferences, and ensure that every family can find the perfect fit for their newborn photography needs:

  • Full Newborn Session: This comprehensive session takes place in my home studio in Menifee and lasts about 2-3 hours. It offers multiple setups and poses, personalized to your preferences, including colors and props. Family, parent, and sibling photos can be included for no extra cost.
  • Mini Newborn Session: A short and sweet session lasting up to 1 hour, focusing solely on the baby. This option is perfect for those who want quick yet beautiful photos of their newborn.
  • Lifestyle Newborn Session: This session lasts up to 1 hour and takes place in the comfort of your own home, any time within the first 8 weeks of your baby’s life (between 2 days to 2 weeks old is ideal). It is a beautiful way to document those precious bonding moments with your new family member. Parents, siblings and pets are welcome and encouraged to join in the photos!
