It is so amazing to see how much the babies grow since their newborn session. I took Owen’s newborn photos six months ago, which feels like yesterday. His milestone session was absolutely adorable!

You don’t need to know how to pose to have beautiful photos 🤍
The truth is… almost everyone feels a little awkward at the beginning of a session.
The “what do I do with my hands?” feeling is very real 😅
But here’s the secret — the best photos don’t come from perfect posing.
They come from connection.
Talk to your kids.
Hold them close.
Walk, laugh, cuddle, play.
I’ll guide you the whole time so you never feel lost — but the magic always happens in those in-between moments you didn’t even realize were being captured.
So if you’re worried about looking natural…
you already are ✨
Save this for your next session & send it to someone who says “I’m awkward in photos” 💛

The best time for sleepy, curled-up poses is within the first three weeks. That’s why I pencil you in based on your due date and adjust once baby is here.
Everything is provided in my studio — wraps, outfits, props — so parents can simply show up and relax.
If you’re expecting and looking for a Bakersfield newborn photographer, now is the perfect time to reserve your session 🤍
Send me a message with your due date to check availability. ✨
