Selena called me after her little princess was already born and we had to get her in quick! I’m so glad she called me, because they turned out amazing!
Look at this gorgeous piece of wall art coming her way! All the way from Europe. Each wood piece is hand crafted and customized for each client.
Ezlyn gets to have her own wall art collage for above her crib! I cannot wait to see it hung up. Did you know that MJ comes and hangs every piece of wall art for you? We are a full service photography business.
Avesta with Avesta Hair and Makeup came to do hair and makeup for momma for her portraits. I love how mom gets to get pampered before her session. Having a newborn is so exhausting, so just having to show up at the newborn studio right out of bed is a WIN!
Doesn’t mom look stunning?
Daddy and his little girl. So perfect.
First family portraits! These are so special.
Christmas TIME!!!!!
Momma wanted holiday cards to send out to family. Tell me she isn’t the cutest thing you have ever seen! Her little Santa sack is perfect for Christmas.
Here are some more favorites from Ezlyn’s gallery.
Look at that little smile.
Here eye contact made this portrait perfect! I got to use my new heart bowl on her session.
This little chin pose in a bucket is my favorite! I am obsessed.
How to maximize your gallery from a single pose during a newborn session, while still getting multiple looks!
Newborn sessions can be lengthy especially if that little one just doesn’t want to sleep for you! It is so important to maximize each pose in your newborn galleries. Doing this will help you shorten your newborn session times and still be able to get a great variety of images for your clients.
It’s all in the wrap!
After doing a couple naked poses I move onto my wrapped poses. Here is where you are going to be able to maximize each wrap! I typically do all of these wrapped poses in an hour.
The first wrapped pose that I do looks something like this. Under this brown wrap is a white basic stretch wrap. It is simple around his chest to hold his hands in place. The brown wrap is simply there for looks and to hold the feet in that cute pose.
You can see that his hands are in position to get the potato pose, I am working each wrapped pose up to the potato sack pose.
While he is wrapped, you want to get multiple angles. This also gives you the chance for your close ups and of course that coveted feet shot!
The second wrapped pose only requires you to remove the brown wrap that is placed for looks. LEAVE the white wrap that is around the hands and chest on. Change out the outward wrap and change out your bonnet/bow. Grab multiple angles from this setup as well! Below is an example.

Third look. SAME white underneath wrap is on. Baby should still be content because you have left them feeling secure with the white stretch wrap on. Here I am simply using the flokati that I am going to use for the potato sack pose. You can also use this pose to grab the eyelash shot.
Fourth look. You guessed it….I still have on the underneath white wrap. Here you can change out the outward wrap if you choose, this time mom loved neutrals, so I decided to keep the same wrap but changed to a prop to gather a better variety of poses. I added in a bowl with some white fluff and a teddy bear. (NOTE: for me it is super to easy to switch back and forth from props to beanbag due to just swiveling my light, if this is not easy for you, you will have to change up the order a little.)
I also like to grab some profile shots, baby toes, and lips!
About this time mom is done with hair and makeup. So baby is in the perfect wrap for some parent shots. I am usually done with these in less than 10 minutes. Here is just a few.
Fifth wrapped shot! Potato sack time! I know some people do not like this pose…but I am obsessed. I love this pose so much and so do all of my clients. I still have the same white underneath stretch wrap on. I am going to take a second stretch wrap and stabilize the neck and back even more with it. Then you take the third wrap(whichever wrap you want on the outside) and wrap babies feet up to their chest as well. For this session mom wanted an Heirloom album, so I love tying in the same wraps to create a beautiful cohesive album.
Sixth wrapped pose! Just put the 4th wrap over the previous potato sack poses wrap. Same flokati. Like so. Just gives an extra look and takes literally 3 minutes.
Seventh wrapped pose time! Take off the last two wraps, keeping on the two white stretch wraps. Then pick an additional wrap and bonnet to put on. My go to here is the bucket pose!
Here if baby is really asleep, I’ll pull their hands out of the wrap and get a chin pose shot in the bucket. This baby was not down for that pose, so I did chin on arms instead.

Here is an example of froggy pose in the bucket…if they stay asleep. (The first white wrap is still round their chest to make them feel secure).
This is the flow I do for every baby! Of course there will be moderations for each baby, but for the most part I still to this routine. My sessions are typically 2 hours and I get around 80 images to show at their Image reveal session.

Sophie Rose was perfect for her newborn portrait session. I knew when she looked at me, this was going to be my favorite. Just look at that little face. Mom said she always makes this face!
Those perfect little lips. <3
That perfect little yawn. I tried so hard to capture it, mom wanted a yawn so bad!
Just look! Beautiful sisters.
Big brothers turn. He was a little easier to capture 😉
First family portrait. <3 They are perfect.
I love portraits with just mom and dad with their new baby.
I always love this angle with dad. It shows just how small they are in daddy’s hands. They will never again fit into your hands this way.
Potato sack pose is my favorite! It shows her perfect little face. The rose headband is a perfect touch for Sophie Rose. Want to see a maternity session?

I have been capturing Jaxson since he was a newborn. I have loved seeing him grow through the years. He has to be the cutest baby I have ever seen! Look at those rolls.
How can you even pick a favorite? I’m obsessed with them all. Those rolls and that smile! He even laughed out loud when he smiled!
Capturing Jaxson’s first birthday portraits was amazing. He was the happiest little guy and gave the most beautiful expressions.
He gave out the biggest laugh when I captured this one. Just look at those tummy rolls! I am in love.
His little jeans with suspenders were just the cutest. I cannot handle those little teeth.
Can you believe he is walking? I got so excited seeing him take off.
Momma got this portrait matted in a 16×20 reclaimed wood frame. I cannot wait to see it!

Jaxson wasn’t sure about his cake. He did not think getting messy was all that it was cracked up to be!
I adore his cake! His theme was dinosaurs.
He did not want to eat it! We tried and tried but after one bite that was it!
And that was a wrap.

I can “HEARTILY believe Brenna is 1!”
Sweet Brenna is 1 and I cannot believe it. Brenna is a heart warrior, so of course her theme had to include hearts!
Isn’t she beautiful? She has the most perfect little features. We had to show off her scar. I hope she always knows how special that scar is, how tough is shows she is.
Miss Brenna drove 8 hours round trip for her first birthday portraits. She was a little nervous at first, but she warmed up. Mom says that she is used to being pricked and prodded, so it makes her nervous. Poor sweet girl!
That tongue…that scar…that face
Tiny toes
This is a favorite! Look at that little expression.
Cake Smash!
Cake time. Baby photographer near Katy TX
Momma saved the top of her cake from her baby shower for Brenna’s 1st year cake smash session! How special is that? It makes it extra special.
Brenna was not the biggest fan of the cake, but most 1 year old are not. She still did so well and gave the cutest faces!
Putting sweet baby girls in vintage dresses with bonnets just gives me all the feels.
Color or Black & White? I cannot choose.

I have had the honor of photographing Foster since he was born! It is such a privilege to be chosen to photographing little ones as they grow up. This past year just flew by, I can’t believe he is turning one.
His first birthday theme is “where the wild things are.” Such an adorable theme, it fits him perfectly!
Look at the tail!
Can you believe he can already walk? Not even 1 and already on the move.
This face…I just adore it!

Mom and dad chose this one for his canvas! It was a favorite of mine, so I was of course excited! I can’t wait to see it in person. I love helping everyone hang their memories.

The sweetest yawn I have ever seen. I love this one so much. I have it printed in my studio in Fulshear.
Lilly traveled all the way from San Antonio for her newborn portraits. It is such an honor to be chosen to capture a little one’s very first portraits. Such a far drive, but I am so glad they did it.
Mommy and daddy called this sweet girl blueberry since the beginning. So blue was a must in her session. Little girls in blue! I love when they want these.
MJ’s Photography – Fulshear newborn photosThis one is a favorite. She is perfect.

Tatum came into my studio at a little over a week old and so very adorable.
Mommy said his nursery was in a jungle theme with grays. This portrait instantly came to mind.
Tatum gave the sweetest smiles. This sea blue setup gives me all of the boy feels. Isn’t he perfect? This image had to be a studio sample for my Folio box.
I rarely do this pose, but when I do I swoon. Look at those adorable cheeks.

Newborn photography is my muse. I adore capturing these precious gifts. Being chosen to capture their very first portraits is such an honor to me. I take great care in selecting each and every setup for their gallery. I want everything to showcase their baby perfectly.
Birdie was such a delight to photograph. She was just 9 days old when she came into my studio. Mommy gave me free reign with her setups and I loved every bit of it!
My favorite prop to use is my bucket. I love seeing their sweet faces poking out of the top and showing their size perfectly. In a couple short months, they will no longer fit into this little bucket.
This tiny little bed is so perfect.
Monochromatic portraits just speak to my soul! Look how gorgeous she is in pink. I love everything about these newborn portraits.
