MJ’s Photography is a Cross Creek Ranch baby photographer that specializes in newborn, maternity, and family portraits.
Newborn portraits are my favorite. I truly love getting to capture each newborn in their unique way.
Lillian was such a sleeper during her newborn portraits. She did amazing and got the sweetest little poses.
Momma wanted to capture Lillian in a sweet pink tutu and I am in love with how it turned out.

Momma looked absolutely gorgeous for her sweet baby girl’s newborn portraits. She worn one of my gowns for her session and they turned out perfect.
Daddy and his sweet baby girl. This one was momma’s favorite of him!
I photograph newborns in my in home studio in Jordan Ranch. I have a cute little space that is perfect for photographing all of these sweet babies!
Their first family portrait. I am so in love with how it turned out! Sweet Lillian’s little feet poking out are just the icing on the cake.
I think this one was mom and dad’s favorite! That sweet little smile just topped it off perfectly. You can already see her little personality coming out.
Newborn portrait session are in studio near Katy and Fulshear texas.
I love the simplicity of this portrait. She is perfectly bundled up and her sweet little face is framed perfectly. I just love everything about the picture of Lillian.

Here is a youtube video showing how I composite the chin pose. This pose is always done safely. Never attempt this pose without experience or without compositing it.
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.
Professional Newborn photographer in Houston- MJ’s Photography
At MJ’s Photography, I strive to bring you something different than just a CD full of images. Time and again, I have seen couples, mommies-to-be, new parents, or families go through the entire process to fall short, with a lackluster set of photos gracing their homes. That is why we will meet for a design consultation before your session so that I can understand what you are in search of, discuss your vision for your portraits, see the beautiful heirloom albums to the exquisite wall art, as well as review your future investment.
I have designed a menu that will best suit each individual client and I believe that you should only purchase what you love. Collections begin at 1290 and a la carte products begin at 245.
To discuss your potential investment, call the studio at 512-470-6660

I started my business, MJ’s Photography, in 2014. My love for my daughter Emma Lyn, ignited my passion for photography.

Drew is now the sweetest big brother to Blake. Do not be fooled, this portrait was no easy task. Big brother wanted to ride around a tricycle instead of take pictures, I mean who wouldn’t.

Guancarlo came in at a week old and so much hair! Look at how much beautiful hair he has.
I am in love with his perfect little pose. What is cuter than a baby cuddled up on a pillow?
Brothers. A forever best friend. Typically sibling photos are a hit or miss. Either big brother or sister loves holding their new baby or they want nothing to do with them. Adrian LOVES his brother and was all about posing and smiling with his baby brother. Mom had plenty to choose from.
I’m so glad mom decided to get into some portraits as well. She is simply stunning and I adore the color gown she chose to wear.
Mom loved the digital composites during our newborn session consultation beforehand, so I made sure to include a couple of sweet Guancarlo. She chose these two newborn composites and I’m so glad she did.
This sweet little pose of him and his little hand under his face…I simply cannot get enough of it. I would love to stare at it all day!
Mom chose this wall art for her home! She did so well choosing her Wooden portrait blocks. Her walls are going to be beautiful with this display!
