There’s nothing more precious than capturing the tiny details of a brand new baby — especially this sweet baby girl! As a Menifee newborn photographer, I specialize in creating timeless portraits that celebrate the sweetness of your baby’s earliest days.

Newborn photography is truly magical because it captures a phase that pass by so quickly. That’s why scheduling your newborn session within the first few weeks after birth is ideal — it allows me to capture your baby at their sleepiest and tiniest stage.

If you’re expecting a little one soon, now is the perfect time to book your newborn photoshoot to capture these once-in-a-lifetime moments with sweet portraits you’ll cherish forever. Contact me to reserve your spot!

3 month old Preemie | California Newborn Photographer

10.25.2025

This post is ironically long overdue as this handsome little guy was born early! He came in for his newborn photoshoot at 3 months old, but as a preemie he was still very much in the newborn phase. I loved the vision his momma had for his photoshoot and I’m so excited to finally showcase his newborn photos!

A Gentle, Baby-Led Approach

As a newborn photographer, I’ve had the privilege of meeting so many sweet families and their beautiful babies—but there’s something extra special about photographing preemies. These tiny warriors have already shown incredible strength and resilience in their first weeks of life.

When babies arrive earlier than expected, their newborn photoshoot usually happens a bit later than planned and that’s perfectly okay! For this sweet little guy’s preemie newborn photoshoot, I kept the session simple and timeless.

When to Schedule a Preemie Newborn Photoshoot

If your baby arrived early, you can still absolutely plan a newborn photography session whenever you and your baby are ready — as soon as your baby is home and thriving.

Book Your Preemie’s Newborn Session

Whether your baby arrived early or right on time, I’d love to help you preserve these fleeting newborn moments. My home studio is located in Menifee where I serve families throughout the Temecula Valley and the Inland Empire and surrounding areas.

Tiny Baby Girl’s Photoshoot | Temecula Valley Newborn Photographer

10.23.2025

This tiny and adorable baby girl was truly a dream to photograph! As a Temecula Valley newborn photographer, I absolutely love meeting new families and helping them show off how perfect their new little one is. This little beauty was SOOO tiny and delicate — she had the tiniest hands I’ve ever seen! She slept peacefully through most of her session, making it easy to capture so many photos for her parents to treasure. I loved that she kept flashing the sweetest sleepy smiles too.

One of my favorite parts of every session is capturing the connection between baby and parents. Those family moments always become some of the most meaningful images from the day.

I always aim to keep newborn photography sessions simple, cozy, and stress-free so parents can just relax and enjoy the experience. My Menifee studio is stocked with wraps, headbands, outfits and props, so everything is ready for you when you arrive.

If you’re expecting and looking for a newborn photographer in Menifee or the Temecula Valley area, I’d love to help! The newborn stage is so short, and within the first few weeks are the perfect time to photograph your little one during the moments you’ll want to remember forever.

Unicorn Baby | Firefighter Newborn Photoshoot

09.25.2025

In newborn photography, the term “unicorn baby” is a nickname photographers sometimes use to describe a baby who is exceptionally easy to work with.

A “unicorn baby” typically:

Sleeps soundly and deeply through most of the session
Easily transitions between poses without fussing
Rarely cries or startles
Is naturally curled up and flexible, making posing smooth
Might even give a few sweet smiles or expressions on cue

The idea is that, just like a unicorn, this kind of baby feels magical and rare—since most newborns will have at least a few fussy or alert moments during a session (which is completely normal).

This beautiful little one was an absolute DREAM for her mini newborn photoshoot. I also loved including a very personal touch—her daddy’s firefighter helmet. We complemented the firefighter photos with some traditional newborn portraits as well to highlight her natural beauty.

These early days are fleeting, and incorporating such a meaningful family detail made this session even more memorable. One day, I hope this little girl will look back at her newborn photos and see not only how tiny she once was but also how loved she has always been.

I’d love to help you create images that tell your story! Contact me to book your baby’s photoshoot and let’s capture the details that mean the most to your family.

Absolutely Beautiful Baby Girl’s Newborn Photoshoot

09.24.2025

I had so much fun with this baby girl’s newborn photoshoot! She is absolutely beautiful and such a natural in front of the camera.

Newborn photography is all about preserving those fleeting early days, when babies are still so tiny and new. In just a matter of weeks, they grow and change so quickly, making these first portraits such a meaningful keepsake.

If you’re expecting, now is the perfect time to plan your newborn photoshoot. Sessions are best scheduled within the first two weeks after birth, when babies are still fresh, sleepy, and extra snuggly. I would love to help you create heartfelt, timeless images of your little one during this precious stage. Contact me today to reserve your newborn session!

Minimalist Newborn Photography | Menifee Baby Photoshoot

09.21.2025

This handsome little guy’s parents requested some photos on a classic black background— a stunning choice that beautifully highlighted just how tiny he was in his parents’ arms. I love when parents request special ideas for their sessions– whether it’s a favorite color, meaningful prop, or a classic setup, customizing each session makes the images even more personal and memorable. Little baby E did such an amazing job for his newborn photoshoot!

And baby girl makes six! | Newborn & Family Photoshoot

09.17.2025

Every newborn & family photoshoot is special, but this one was extra special. My son’s high school (now college) sweetheart sent her sister’s family my way to capture their new baby boy’s photos a couple years ago, and now they’ve welcomed a new baby girl! She is absolutely adorable, and a perfect addition to their beautiful family.

Welcome Baby Number Three! | Menifee Newborn Photographer

09.16.2025

Welcome baby number three for this beautiful family: the cutest baby girl!! I first met them earlier this year for adorable big sister’s 4th birthday photos. I was so thrilled when they booked again for their baby girl’s newborn photos. One of my many favorite things about their session was the sweet sister’s bond that was already so evident!

Big Sister’s 5th Birthday + Baby Brother’s Newborn Photoshoot

09.13.2025

Sharing this session is long overdue, but I couldn’t miss it because it was so special—a newborn photoshoot for their sweet baby boy combined with his big sister’s 5th birthday portraits. I was extra excited for this session after meeting their beautiful family last year for big sister’s 4th birthday photos!

Celebrating Two Milestones in One Session

When families welcome a new baby, it’s also a big moment for siblings. This proud big sister was turning five, and it was the perfect opportunity to celebrate her milestone alongside her baby brother’s first portraits. I loved that their brother in the middle was so extra sweet with his baby brother. It was so precious to see the new bond between them.

Combining sessions is a wonderful way to capture both occasions in one sitting, creating a gallery full of meaningful images you’ll treasure for years to come. For big sister’s 5th birthday photos, we made sure she had her own time in the spotlight. Five is such a fun age!

Sibling & Family Photos

These kinds of sessions go beyond just newborn photography. They capture the growing connections in your family—how siblings welcome the newest member, and how each child’s milestones weave together. In this case, the gallery told a beautiful story of new beginnings and growing up, side by side.

Newborn with the Most Gorgeous Red Hair!

05.19.2025

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!
