Inside the studio, you’ll find:

  • A serene, light-filled space intentionally styled in neutral tones for timeless imagery.

  • Controlled temperature and lighting to keep your newborn comfortable.

  • A curated wardrobe of gowns for mothers, wraps, and newborn outfits chosen to photograph beautifully.

  • Comfortable seating where you can relax, sip coffee, and watch while I work.

The In-Home Experience: A Concierge-Level Upgrade

For families who prefer the privacy and convenience of home, I offer exclusive in-home newborn sessions as a premium upgrade. This experience brings the artistry of the studio directly to you—no travel required, no rushing out the door, and no compromise in quality.

Each in-home session includes:

  • A pre-session planning call to coordinate wardrobe, styling, and location within your home.

  • A curated selection of wraps, swaddles, and newborn wardrobe pieces brought directly to you.

  • Portable professional lighting and posing tools that create the same refined results you’d expect in the studio.

  • Hair and makeup for mothers arranged in-home by trusted artists.

  • A calm, baby-led pace designed around feeding, soothing, and comfort.

This service is designed for families who value exclusivity, discretion, and convenience. Because of the time and preparation required, in-home sessions are offered at a premium investment and limited to a small number of clients each month. It’s a truly concierge-level experience that feels personal, private, and beautifully effortless.

We know choosing a photographer can be a big decision. Here’s our list of Things to Consider When Choosing a Newborn Photographer


Which Option Is Right for You?

Both studio and in-home sessions provide a full-service, luxury experience. The difference lies in setting and convenience.

If you love a carefully curated, distraction-free environment designed for newborn photography, the studio is ideal. If you prefer to stay home while I bring the wardrobe, props, and artistry to you, the in-home option is the perfect fit.

No matter which you choose, the goal is the same—timeless, heartfelt portraits of your baby and family, preserved as heirloom artwork for generations.


Creating Artwork That Lasts

After your session, we’ll meet for a personalized ordering appointment—either in-studio or in-home—where I guide you through selecting your favorite images. Together, we’ll design custom albums and wall art that complement your home perfectly.

Every print, frame, and album is designed to become part of your family’s story. Delivery and professional installation is included with qualifying wall art purchases to ensure your finished pieces are displayed beautifully and stress-free.

Frequently Asked Questions…

Why choose a studio newborn session in Orange County?

Studio sessions provide a carefully designed environment optimized for newborns. At my Old Town Tustin studio, everything is prepared before you arrive—wardrobe, props, lighting, and comfortable seating for parents—so you enjoy polished, timeless portraits with a calm, stress-free experience.

What makes the in-home newborn option different?

The in-home experience is a concierge-level upgrade for families who prefer privacy and convenience. I bring wardrobe, props, and portable lighting to you, and arrange professional hair and makeup in your home. It’s the same luxury experience as the studio, tailored to your space.

Do in-home sessions cost more than studio sessions?

Yes. Because of the time, planning, and resources involved, in-home sessions are offered at a premium investment and limited to a small number of clients each month.

When should I book my newborn photography session?

Ideally, as soon as you know you're pregnant! But at minimum,, during your second trimester. That lets us reserve time around your due date and plan whether you’d prefer a studio or in-home session.

What if my baby is fussy during the session?

Totally normal. Sessions are baby-led with plenty of time for soothing, feeding, and cuddling. Whether in the studio or at home, the process is unhurried and designed for everyone’s comfort.

Do I need to provide outfits or props for my baby?

No. I provide wraps, swaddles, bonnets, bows, and newborn outfits. For in-home sessions, I bring a curated selection with me—so you never have to worry about what to prepare.

Can parents and siblings be included in both studio and in-home sessions?

Always. Including family adds depth and meaning to your portraits. I offer wardrobe options for moms and styling guidance for partners and siblings so your gallery feels cohesive and elevated.

Do we receive both digital files and printed artwork?

Most families choose both. Digitals are perfect for sharing, while heirloom albums and wall art let you enjoy your portraits every day at home.

What happens after the session?

We schedule a personalized ordering appointment—either in-studio or in-home—where I help you select favorites. Together we’ll design albums and wall art that suit your home; professional installation with qualifying artwork is included.
